I've been thinking of making it a little longer, nothing like a few extra inches

Or just source a 130" chassis.....

I like the welding on the engine mounts And the very neat cut out job Must have been poked in after the 4BD1 was dropped in.

Did the chassis whistle at 80 kmh and over
I hear you on the number thing

Poked?.....more like hacked

Not sure, it had arm strong steering originally, so maybe the power steer box's are larger?

Yea, nice welding job

80km/hr and over? whats that in an N/A Izoozoo, couldn't hear it over the engine noise....cab rattles.....tray rattles.....

fair enough. i took ya other rover for a spin this arvo, did a bit of hill climbing in the backyard, performed faultlessly, needs a bit more articulation and lower gearing though

Hey Matt, Just an idea I had years ago wile building a series hybrid on a stretched Rangie chassis... Lift the outriggers etc 2" and brace over the top . Lift the engine and gear box mounts, then run a double cardan joint on the front shaft. Then a front sals will clear the sump
If you get a 130 chassis you wouldn't bother as to much stuffing around The above idea will keep the suspension geometry very nice and can run long down travel but retain near stock ride height in effect.

I think a 130 chassis even at 1K would be cheaper than buggering around extending a 110 somehow.
