    G'day everyone!

    G'day! I've been sitting on a pretty much stock GQ 4.2 diesel for a year now. It's in top nick but needs a few mods. I've finally got the nod to go ahead and start spending. This looks like the place to go to find out what to do and what not to do.
    First up is a lift.. undecided whether to go 2in or 3.
    Need a steel bull bar.
    New roof racks.
    Snorkel.
    And the list goes on...

    Hopefully I'll be able to turn what was previously a horse float puller into a rugged and reliable truck.

    Cheers guys.
