    Well, sliders are done and go on Thursday night ... new suspension (thanks Tony) goes in on Saturday morning, with a bent upper control arm, braided brakes lines and the rear storage/shelve system all going in on Monday (with an internal wheel mount going in on top of the storage system also so I don't have to mount the wheel on the back door - or at least have options). Winch won't happen until the first week of August (before Scenic Rim thankfully), with the dual battery soon to follow, and then it's the motor in Mid to late September ... I simply can't wait (think Tank is somewhat excited as well !!! lol). The only other thing that I could even contemplate doing post all of this is a rear locker, but really don't see the need currently .. I know how to lock up the LSD mid track and will have a ludicrous amount of flex, so that would be some way off ... if ever ... (no, I didn't say 'never' Dhuck!!! lol).

    Once the engine is done, it's sad to think about, but Tank will be pretty much complete and this thread will stop growing at a frantic rate!!! LOL ... and no, I won't be selling it for $6800 on Gumtree!!!!

    I have always said, wait till the diff dies and fix it with a locker. Why destroy a perfectly good diff. Whats the saying. If it aint broke dont fix it. However you would like the locker. Better than LSD.

    Well i would think that would be enough mods, some of us have a lot of catching up to do & no time to do it.
    Watch out there's a Poo "Yota" lurking in the shadows !
