Hello from Perth

[Spiv]

Hi all !!

Just got myself a Y61 '98, 4.5lt manual.

She's pretty standard, nice winch bar (no winch), Rhino Bars and spotty.

I want to use this just for 4x4 camping, so i will remove the back seats and add drawers, put a lift kit and taller tyres.

I did a lot of 4x4 driving many years ago with a GQ 4.2D, later with a Pajero, so I have the bug....
The others where also city cars, but this I will just use it for camping trips.
Any suggestions as how to make her into a good all rounder, but especially sand machine will be appreciated.
I do not want the top of the range, expensive gear, I drive slow and use caution/ common sense.

Anyhow, nice to be here and hope to meet some of you 'Out There"...

Keep smiling
Spiv

Yea, done a lot of Km.... but in good nik.
No dual batteries and the shockies are very tired, but I got her at a good price and will fix / upgrade where necessary.
Just bought a second battery as Repco had 30% off today, will grab a Dual Battery Management System in the near future (something like this:VICTRON-DUAL-BATTERY-SYSTEM).
