Mike's 88 GQ wagon "Sherman Tank"

[1nertia]

Time to post up about my big heavy baby.

Pretty standard as far as Engine/Drivetrain is concerned. Will be getting a set of reduced ratio gears soon, and a brand new 2.5' exhaust and extractors.

Suspension is a 6inch lifted ToughDog set up, castor adjusted somehow. Running on 35/12.5R15 Nangkang mud terrains (I'm an ex tire fitter, just because it isn't a brand name, doesn't mean it's crap ) I will be putting 2inch springs in soon enough, for daily driving, and some 33' ATRs on a new set of rims.

Obvious addons are the ARB steel bull bar, colour matched by a blind man to the rest of the vehicle... set of IPF spotties, one set as a spot light, the other a spreader. GMI UHF set up as well. Also has a set of Recaro seats in the front.

The complete list of things to do is almost endless, but I'll put as much as I can here before we get to pictures!

Long range sub fuel tank.
New rear bar - hopefully winch compatible
A Winch or 2
New UHF
Custom drawers in the rear
Spartan AutoLocker for the front end
Reduced ratio diff gearings
Supersized RTS toughdog damper
Endless air compressor, or something with enough output
Possible water tank somewhere.

That's all I can think of for now. PICTURES!











Yes, I am getting yanked out of a big puddle by a Hilux...


That's it for now, more will come as I do stuff to it.
