    Diary of TDI Conversion - Day 27 Up and Running!!!

    G'day Guys,

    One of the last jobs I had to do was to install the extended rear body stays that support the cargo area of the boot - the stays were extended by welding 1" box section blocks on top and putting back in the standard location.




    And there she is!!!

    Sweet looking Rangie .. well done Mark. I presume the front end will be covered with a bullbar and winch? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

    yeah mate, the ARB winch bar will go back on - despite suggestions that I build a new bar to keep the approach angle (they know who they are !!!)

    I have just bought a Warn XD9000i winch - same as the G4 vehicles and that will go in once I'm happy with the rest of the vehicle.

    The rear bar (Hayman Reece) is going back on after some alterations - rear wheel carrier etc

    I want to see how these 32" BFG MT go before even thinking lockers / cutting guards / 33" Goodyear MTR's etc

    Then there is the Ute conversion..... when does it end???


    actually this needs to end soon - so the misses is still talking to me, THEN I can start on the D100 about September time [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Looks like a nice job and thanks for letting us follow your project. I had a look at your body lift thread - it looks like a 2" lift? Did you also do a suspension lift and if so how much lift?

    I am thinking of lifting my disco 1 - but I am not wanting a great deal - your car looks about right to me.

    Thanks

    Gazzz
