Thanks for sharing, why hilux axles and leafs please, where the suzuki ones no good?

suzuki front ifs won't handle tyres bigger than 32 safely, 33's on the rear axle tends to twist half shafts.

hilux axles are vertually unbreakable.
leaf springs cos it was the simplest to do.
twin t case gives me mega low range.

also cost, cos it was cheap to do
