thanks for that,the spec could be a bit long winded but theres not much i havent tweeked or changed!!
here goes :
2.5 v6 auto from a gv,
pair of oddessy pc1500's,
8274 with gp +3"drum+air freespool,gp h/d main shaft,+25%gears xp motor .
rear winch warn xp with 8274 motor and modified rope retention system.
suspension arms kap h/d with polybushes all round,
front arms extended 40mm,
front axle is a modified sammy casing with chromoly 4340 shafts and cv's, modded arb to suit sammy shafts,
diff is jimny ,
rear axle is standard apart from arb and rear disc conversion.
lowered rear top shock mounts and raised lower mounts (big jimny ones)custom rear winch tray with 2 swivel recovery points and ali tool box fitted behind under spare wheel.
kap h/d panhard rod in rear,front one custom made (as i bent a h/d kap one).to rig up the jimny steering to the sammy axle i swapped the stub axle carriers left for right and right for left to put the part that the steering link bar rod ends go into behind the axle instead of in front, i then custom made a bracket to bolt on with the nearside caliper carrier to form an arm coming forward from the stub axle carrier to allow the jimny steering bar to connect to.inside is an arb h/d compresser and 1 gallon air tank to keep the 2 arb's and air freespool working nice. the rear tray holds 4 waffle boards,ground anchor(steel pin type for hard ground and hammer) ground anchor plough type,wheel brace,radiator/tranny cooler cooled by thermo controlled kenlowe fan. snorkel is ali linked to std airbox(sealed of course).
lights are 2 rear,2 rearside,2 front side,2 front spotsand 2 front fogs +headlights.bonnet is chequerplated in ali,as is the belly guard and front bash plate. i think thats everything!!! i cant take credit for cutting the cab down that was down to darren at kap who as you can see did a crackin job i got it back with just 2 chassis legs stickin out the back.all the rest of the work was done by myself.

Sponnie, Ive got the axles, panhards, steering bar and wheels and tyres from this car now. Gary now has uprated Landy items and even bigger shocks and lift!

I know, because I rang the guy when they were for sale and you had beat me to them!! Lol.

Dude this trayback is awsome Are you local to the southwest?

No he is from County Durham in northeast.

Couldnt get much further in the other direction just when he said about the de-cider in Saltash and assumed he was localish :silly: :silly:

A few photos from the Muddy truckers trophy 2013 from last weekend.

Where did you come in the Muddy Truckers mate???

My mate Kev (KK) came 6th in his 90.

I'd love to come and take photographs and write an event report for this but it's just so flipping far from me in Essex!

We were just behind in 7th, we had a bit of a mare well our team mates did they got a puncture in the first hour of the first day then broke their ARB so were only in 3 wheel drive something to do with no drive to one of the front wheels dont ask me I'am not very technical.
Then start of the second day they lost all drive to the front wheels so we had to just about tow them round all sunday and they were in one of them heavy aresed 90's.
But all in all inour opinion its the best event in the country if only we could team up with a competative jimny I think we would do quite well.

Damn, not a good match. A Jimny and a 90. Especially not when the Jimny needs to tow the 90

You could always put up an ad here on this forum, for a Jimny to team up with

Thats hard-on material

Apart from putting photo's on here.

There is a new uprated 8274 for the back with bowmotor 2, then the front 8274 has got a new bowmotor 3, yet to be tested but apparently it pulls like a train.
