  1. she's pretty sloppy alright and pretty terrible to drive. hoping to sort out the steering a bit.

    putting front diff centre together today, these diff holders are sweet you buy the template and get them laser cut and weld it up saves chasing the diff round your table.

  2. have started rebuilding a spare front diff, braced it and strengthened the steering stops. while I'm at it have changed from 4.11 gears to new 4.83? with a LSD have got new slotted discs too because the brakes are shit house.

  3. long time no update. finished the rear tyre carrier, got a better tent and awning can actually hang off this one. took it up north for a week camping near dargville at my in-laws place its sweet 300 hectares on the beach with nothing there. drove down to poutu light house etc.

    I have a bj71 with a 13bt. the one you are looking at rust out around the windscreen frame, I paid $4500 for mine in fairly good condition 8 months or so ago. mine has been addictive to spend money on though and parts are not cheap. if you do buy one go nuts on the fish oil etc inside the body, the handling is terrible if raised, and the brakes are shithouse at best.

    so yeah buy it.

  6. messed up with these callipers I spent loads on re-kitting, internet said they are a good upgrade but I never measured to check see photo.

    not too sure if theres a way to make an adapter plate or something. fitted longer brake hose to the rear tonight, used one of those no friends brake bleeder things man they work sweet.

  7. nice that looks really clean. also looks like something i could copy , you weren't worried about protecting the grill\lights? yeah drive everywhere in 4th gear so 4.56s should work

    Shit man BJs got stature, looks friggin good. 

    You should build a badass front bumper for it, ditch the chrome for something minimalist that tucks up to fill the body lift gap. 

    Keen as to build a front bumper not too sure on shape though. would like to keep the old pto winch, am tiding it up to put back on. can buy 4.56 ratio gears wondering if they would be ok. heres how the rear bumper is getting on. Pretty agricultural but I don't have many tools at my disposal (welder and grinder)
