Just a little something for bush bashing with the kids. The 90 is too much of a tarts truck for that and the 110 is the family car so can't really hack it around the bush in it too much

So today I got my hands on a 1985 4 door auto rangie

Needs a bit if TLC but for the money it is worth the bit of work



Can't wait to get it on the road and have a play

Love the early 4 doors Ali, Should have the A727 Torquflyte, get rid of the 1:1 transfer case and slot in a Defender 1.4:1, and slap some 33's under it...

...Can't break the trans

Well one reason it was so cheap is because the transfer box is jumping out of high

Did come with a new transfer box to replace the ol one so have to do that first. So could just put a defender one in.

I already have a set of 235/85 16's mud Tyres to go under it. And also got a 2" Lift kit for it too.
