    Well Ive only paid about 4 payments so $7500!!

    haha purchase price was 28K and about $5500 in mods since then (dont tell the mrs!!), pretty reasonable I think. Still got a fair bit I want to do, reduction gears, intercooler and turbo upgrade, about $6500 right there

    I look at this as being a keeper so dont mind spending the coin

    Couple more pics taken today while playing in a drain at the site I was working on:

    Cheers boagie!

    Flex looks good in the pics mate but for me its about using these for what they were build for and getting them dirty.
    I got mine pretty much stock as and after 4 months the mods I have done will probably only assist me getting deeper in the shit haha!
    These things are pretty capable from the factory and only need a few tweaks here and there (locker, lift, tyres and winch for peace of mind!)

    This pic makes me happy!

    Pulling the transfer case out on Thursday and organised for a local transmission workshop to install the gears for me on Friday. 3 hours once the case is on the bench, would be 3 times that if I did it myself!
