Let us know how it performs, I'll be looking at shocks and springs soon

Gday, Got the front done today as well as the steering damper.
There isnt a lot of room between damper and winch PTO.
So with the Terrafirma i chose the medium load rear springs (+300kg). The heavy load (+500kg) seemed a bit much. For the front i got the heavy load (+100kg) having the 4BD1 and a winch.
All was a 2" lift and i used the Terrafirma Big Bore Expedition Shocks @ +2". I ended up with 25mm lift in the rear and 15mm lift in the front.
I have 255/85R16 tyres and they still scrub out at not quite maximum flex.
I will give her a good run over easter and see how she goes.

Some flex
This is for Outlaw - sorry about the delay.

Issued towel seat cover.
A small bit of shock cord to keep it firm around the seat and a little handy sew awl action behind the head rest to stop it sliding down.
Saved myself a tank of fuel and saved my legs when driving in footy shorts!!
Started work on the false floor. Had some left over shallow unistrut from work. The frame is all laid out, just need to weld it up and then sort out the marine ply.
I have used the four bolt holes for the dicky seats to hold the frame in place.
A draw will be added and the enevitable wasted compartment on the right will hold an air tank and compressor.
The front bar is flipped over so the ply will end 20mm short. This will enable me to remove the middle seat and a drop in a ply section for sleeping arrangements.
Gday BadCo, The rims are 0 offset.

I removed the radiator today. It was easier than i thought it would be.
Now to get the bits that need replacing.
