Thanks for the update. I love to see the work that goes on, top effort.
Any plans to protect what look like the pressure safety valve and drain tap on the tank? Whilst the tank will take a bash or two those items look like the first bit to get torn off. Hard to tell for sure what they are, just showing an interest in your work.

Jupp chainging the lift kit because I needed tuv papers :( will switch back to bilstein dampers after approval. They are much better.
that's my opinion :)

No i didn't need to grind something off the diffhouse at the front :) jupp running 22 spline and stock axles front and rear.

The tank isnt scary low , the picture lying a little. dont need it but it is nice to have when I fill the tires after snow or mud driving (fun driving) :cheer:
tested the locker over night and they went fom 4 to 3,5 bar so no leek.

Would love to test those shocks you run, as i feel the trailmasters also are doing a decent job!

Must be a minor difference in diffs or axles then, or maybe the gearing in the pre vvt models makes the main gear smaller and therefore better space to enter the axle. My housig needed a 5mm grind at 2 and 4 o`clock to make room for entering.

I had a 20L tank on a land cruiser once, but it took under 10sec of tire filling before the compressor ran constant. So i didnt bother installing any tank now..

Do you have youre wheel angle numbers available? This is mine, barely over lowest approved value on caster (not castor ofcourse lol).. Curious if youre caster still is within legal spec? I bet its better to drive with more angle, as i feel its a bit sensitive in the center, and does not straighten up by itself good enough for my taste. Expensive upgrade though..
