That being said, it is about to have the chassis cut and be converted to 6x6 to allow for more weight and increased towing capacity. (the 6x6 kit was delayed for the last 7 months due to flooding)
I am also trying to get dyno tuning done whilst it still has two axles. This was progressing well until a portal (axle only and older design) failed at 608 RWHP on 37s. Trusty patrol axles have been installed now to try final tuning again this weekend.
6x6 kit is running Ford 10" centres and ARB lockers competition so end result will be fully lockable 6x6 on portals and 37" tyres on Hutchinson dual beadlock rims.
