As I'm new to the forum thought I'd get a few pics of the new wagon up early. Setting it up mostly for touring.
I'm having some issues with posting so will try a couple of photos first and come back later to add the extras.

You can't see all the scratches from the beach brush, but yes still fairly shiny, thanks!
I see you've gone for a 2" lift with upgraded shocks and springs - is the general ride much better that the stock setup? It was something I was considering as was told the stock units are poor. Did you fit yourself, or get it done at a shop?Quote:

There is nothing wrong with the stock setup as such. I do on a fair bit of offroad with our group, so needed a 2" lift to stop the bottom scratching out. I still have the stock tyres.Quote:

I have also put in a catch can, which I was surprised how much oil it collects.
Just booked it in to ARB to get an OME 2" lift. Reviews on the forum seem to be good!
I need to read up on the catch can...
That's the 2" OME lift fitted. Can definitely see an immediate improvement to the handling - seems a firmer ride and rolls less around corners... Looking forward to testing it off-road.
Next on the list im looking at fitting working lights to the rear. And the barn door hinge extension. I still can't understand why they have dummies and small lights in the bumper. I know the legal reason, but still makes no sense!!
When I get more confident a snorkel - don't want to cut the hole wrong! More pics to follow.
