Yeah should be good hopefully looking forward to giving them a good test. . . Think the deciding point was on useless loop rd in WA, relentless corugations and was painfully slow, thought one day gonna spoil myself to some good shocks lol. . Old ones have done some work and done well. .

Nice. I'd like to do this to mine. Even though I re cushioned the drivers seat. Its still pretty uncomfortable. Isn't there some sort of road worthy issue with using different seats though? Or is it about the rails, or something...

Its around the mounts to the car and the seat. If you don't intend getting it engineered, them put in what you like. If its going thru the engineering process, would pay to do some homework first and find out what is required. I am unsure about the seats though - would think if its an after market new seat you would not have issue, but there may be some assessment for say a transplanted seat from another model - say XR* seats into a Patrol which is a common swap. I have a Recaro drivers seat sitting on a Bostrum base that came out for engineering - need to find out what the go is there some time as a bit of coin tied up sitting in the garage.

Thanks Phil. Sounds like too much work. I used to sell Bostrom seats years ago too.

Came here at about 10:30am to find out about inner guard bracing just finished now ( with a few breaks) great build and thread!

Nice one, cheers Sean. Certainly a fun project been watching your work in progress too, coming aging nicely. Looking forward to seeing how it comes up, although do have to admit I like the old Lux too had an old dual cab one like that years ago. .

Bad news Ross. Did you get the tree down though? I am a little surprised at the failure as the bolts should not have been taking much load - they are more positional than in tension, the load in compression is into the bar - maybe the damage was already done? Looks like the pull is pretty well straight into the winch?
