looking good
Have you something in mind for gearing changes for the 30" tyres? You will be forever burning through clutches without changing something!
For the tyres you have a rocklobster box is a little too high geared (1.5 in high, 4.3 low) for road, but ideal for greenlaning. Another cheaper option would be to swap the diffs to later vvt ones as these are a higher ratio
and while the diff is out it would be rude not to think about fitting a locker :whistle:

Already had the lift kit, front arms and panhard rods from you James.
Lift fitted. Rear ORA radius arms from Martin. New front and rear radius arm bushes from bigjimny shop. Went with standard type rather than poly. Got a 12ton press in garage so fitting was no issue
Went for pro comp shocks, 4" springs, adjustable panhards with poly bushes and front radius arms. Which all came from James (aka j999pre). Rockwatt supplied rear spring clamps.
One of the radius arm chassis mounts looked like it'd had an encounter with a rock, had to get the oxy-acet out to get that back in to shape. Fitted some JB radius arm guards and rear shock guards while everything was getting changed. Every nut and bolt changed for new ones too, save any issues when it needs pulling apart in the future.
Pulled off the front anti roll bar, seems to be some mixed views on here about it, but going to give it a try.
Just need some extended bump stops and suspect I'm going to have to hack some plastic/metal away from the wheel arches...
Finished diff breathers, ran hoses with some stainless p-clips along radius arms. Then up to the manifold.
