Title: What's my next modification? (aka what do i want for xmas)
Post by: Matt_H on November 26, 2006, 21:13:32
The 90 needs a christmas present I think!

I seem to have got 95% of stuff working again now so am a happy bunny.... for at least 5 minutes.  Of course I now need a new toy to play with. I'm thinking bigger tyres but I don't really want fatter tyres as I can't see they are much use apart from for crossing bogs - what are my options (I presently have 235/85 grizzlies and 265/70 bfg muds)  

How about diff lockers?

Present spec is C reg90, 200tdi, snorkel, roll cage, winch, 2 inch lift, part polly bushed.

Of course I could finally do the veg oil conversion twin tank thing,or even fit the stereo that was riped out when I first got it.  Or finish the rear lift up tool boxes, or even the rear door gas strut assistant.

choices choices!

well i was amazed with Ian's pinz 6x6 with 'real' 6 wheel drive.. that thing on bald tyres went places modified landies couldn't.. with an asmatic 2.0 petrol engine!  That has 3 axle lockers.

So what should i go for, assume rear locker, air or lsd?

Stereo... i got headphones for my ipod- that is sort of good enough.. its impossible to hear anything above 50 anyway, am i likely to hear a regular stereo?

already got the second battery :-)  Inverter and toaster, hmmm there's a nice idea, packs of mini chedders and pork pies can get a bit boring!
