    Arrow Longtime Listener first time caller...MB TD42 checkin in for build up

    Gday all...

    Names Chris...

    Checking in for the first time with my newly purchased 1990 TD42 GQ Wagon...

    I have grown up and toured Australia in Toyotas my whole life and decided after a gut full of sour grapes from my last tojo purchase that I would check out the grass on the other side and buy an old asphalt explorer off a retiring work colleague and get rid of the money pit.

    I got a blank slate with 250k on the ODI and apart from a tiny rust hole on the rear shoulder of the body the rig is immaculate.

    Build plan...

    -Install Emu wing rear window access Matt Black
    -Bar work upgrade to steel all round
    -Install winch from previous rig
    -Install dual battery and aux outlets and inlets
    -Install compressor and outlets
    -Repair small rust spot on roof and possible closed door respray
    -Roof rack
    -3inch suspension
    -Install Led light from old rig

    Catch you round the traps...

    G'day mate and welcome to the forum.
    2005 GU IV ST 3.0. Snorkel. Roof rack. Awning. Spots. Welded I/C. Dual batteries & VSR. UHF. Barn door hinge extension. Roof top spot lights. Rear drawers. 2" lift. NADS. EGT and boost gauges. Trans temp and water temp gauges. Provent 200 catch can. Rear ladder


    And crawling on the planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning.
