From a basically stock Rangie, I have cut the guards, put a suspension lift on it, fitted a modified rear shock top mounts (lowered - thanks Justinc), and added the well worn (soon to be replaced) 33x12.5x15's. Added UHF CB too.

Still to do is snorkle and winch, hopefully soon. As yuo can see from the pics, I also need to add rubber flares :D (although sooooo tempted to leave them without, but fear popo fines)

I also attached a pic of the underneath where you can see the nicely tucked away LPG tanks. Also, the rear end pic looks HORN!! :D :D

Nice work - looks very tough. I especially liked the LPG gas installation.
Out of interest how many litres is the LPG tank? I know that some of the dedicated Fords with factory fit LPG have two small tanks mounted side by side in this location. Is this how you have done it? Mine has a single 80L in the cargo area and I am thinking of changing it. Tez

Mine are, I think 35litr each (at 80%). So they are not that great in capacity, but saves the cargo area a lot of space. I bought the car with this setup. I think you can install additional scuba type tanks and add a false floor in the cargo area, giving much more capacity.
