So far it has, 2 inch lift, castor corrected front arms, cranked rear arms, totally rebushed using standard genuine bushes, HD steering arms, QT diff gaurds, wide ange rear prop, removed the rubber drive thingy..... southdown tank gaurd, D44 spare wheel bracket, Waizard ultimate breather kit.... X brake, high level exhaust ........ Modular style 7x16 wheels, zero offset! 235 85 insa turbo saharas.....
Still to come, Golddigger 4x4 winch bumper and steering gaurd, HD rear bumper, Tree sliders....EP9 winch with bowrope, Southdown snorkel, the list goes on.. and on......
I thought i'd add this one, as i'm quite pleased with the result!! rear box moved to the centre, de-catted aswell.... sounds quite fruity!!!..:)

Good stuff Ron where did you get the high level exhaust its on the wish list.
-
I couldn;t find anyone that did one off the shelf, so i made it myself..... as long as you can live without the rear box, it's quite simple, just cut the pipe off just behind the rear hanger, and create something to fit where you want it to exit..... i'm sure there would be a market for someone to fabricate something up to sell.....
-
Looks wicked.... :clap: :clap: :clap:
I just wish my flexable friend had some flex left in it...... :'( :'( :'(
I've been saving for some more toys for ages but I never seem to get anywhere...lol
keep up the good work - Looking forward to seeing more pics when you've finished.
Mark.

I forgot to add on the list the first mad that was done...... Allisport full width intercooler and pump tweak, along with egr removal, air filter, and silicone hoses.... that made it go well!!!
-
Nice one Ron, looks great
Keep them mod's coming
:D
-
Will do Jake, don't worry.... thanks to your thread i went out this eve and removed the cups on the rear shock mounts.... big hammer and chisel..!!!
also tweaked my breather manifold to a slightly better location, fitted the cardon prop from D44..:) and also threw in one of my two red top optima's....... not sure if i can fit the second one though, as the snorkel i have (southdown) uses the original inlet into the airbox, which is awkward as it's exactly where the 2nd battery would fit...... :huh:
Still waiting on both bumpers and the tree slider from Golddigger, he's promised them for this weekend...!! after that i have the winch to fit and wire up.... with internal and external switches....:O
i'm not even gonna add up what it'll owe me when done..!!!
-
I've been saving up to go for it with mine, but just been told that I'm facing a 4 grand soliciters bill :shock: so that s just blown any thoughts of spending =;
but looking good!
-
couple more pictures to show what i've been up to....
Ignore the mohe made recovery point, it'll get swivel points when Golddigger sends them to me....

Smart
Which rock sliders are they?
:D
-
Golddigger...... they fix to the chassis legs, and the outer sill skin with rivnuts, a right pig to fit they are too..... and the powder coating on top of the galvanising won;t last 5 mins...... they look right though!!

Looks nice bud.
Not enough green though eh ;) ;) ;) ;) :lol:
