Plenty of potential with the alloy boxes for camping

And yes the PVC pipe was a factory extra (very hard to come by lmao)

Nice rig mate. What are the future plans?
How many clicks has it done?
That factory PVC is very hard to come by too. Don't flog it off......... Lmao
Cheers
Yeah it's done 300 clicks mate I payed 16 g for it.
I reckon back tray worth half of that!!!!
Already got 175l fuel capacity
Warn winch
My goal is to have a full time tourer setup mods will be
Snorkel
Lift
Dual Batt setup
Decent rubber
On board air compressor with 9l tank
Front and rear lockers
On the back
Permanent kitchen
65l Waco
Led lighting in boxes
Maybe remove PVC pipe ( hard one though)
That's all to get me started
My opinion is if the motor packs in at least i can rebuild a great motor. Although I think at 300kms it's got a while to go yet
Cheers
Nice buy, that engine will last you a long long time yet.
Great rig mate, it'll see you through for sure.
Well I picked her up yesterday and proceeded with the 600km drive home. What can I say other than it is the most comfy vehicle I have ever driven long distance!!!!! The beast has never been off road in its life I cant see one scratch or dent underneath.
One question how do I know if it's been lifted?? I got the spec measurement from manual but it doesn't seem that high 1864mm or something. It just looks high to this untrained eye lol
Great Buy, is it coils all round or leaf in the rear?
Coils mate! Just took her for a spin down our beach even more impressed now
you gotta be happy with that alot of those trade style GUs have leafs for the load carrying..... slight case of patrol envy
Bloody rippa mate. Top buy. Will scrub up beautiful.
From the pics it looks Stock ride height. I'd say it would have a higher rated spring in the rear.
You might wanna look at poly air bags to compliment the lift kit, so you can enjoy a nice comfy ride when empty, but still load it up and keep a nice ride height.
Great Start. And only 300 thou.. Mine has hit half mill and still keeps up to the turbo 3ltrs..
amazing ride i wish i can get my hands on similar one enjoy :0
So this will be a long thread as I progress with the beast. I am working 7 days a week until Xmas so get 1 hour of daylight a night.
Starting at back changed diff oil the old oil still looked great! ( good sign) gearbox oil changed same deal! Electronic rust prevention ordered, underbody rust spray in my hands. UHF ready to install.
Unfortunately PVC pipe and ladder roof racks removed
