Bigbirds GQ
About my 89 GQ with a TD42
I've had the old girl for a few years now. When i first got her she had 350k on it but i have now got her up to 440k and still going strong. It was pretty well stock apart from a 2" lift and dual battery system. Since then i have only done a small minor things, I added A Uhf, some IPF Xtremes, light bar (ebay special), Roof rack, Ironman Snorkel, Cargo Barrier and most recently a RooSystem side awning. I have ordered a 3" lift kit with 41mm Tough Dog shocks, king springs and drop boxes. I'm waiting to turn up in the next week 
Cheers.

Last weekend was productive. I managed to get the springs, shocks, drop boxes and brake lines in. Can already tell the difference in ride feels much better. Only problem its a little twitchy so got panhards, draglinks and sway bar extension links in the mail.

Recently had a set of 33's fitted to my car. I ended up going with a cheaper tyre to give them a crack, they are Tempra Trail Cutters R/C on 16x8 black sunnies. I wanted something that was in an A/T but these still have a fairly aggressive pattern so will be interesting to see how they go in mud as well.
