  1. Its not really going to be a trials beast, more of a bush truck, but will probably throw a set of fiddles in for amusement value
  2. My brother has got a sj410 flat deck that my dad and I have built up for. Its 4age powered with 32x11.5x15 wrangerls. beadlocks and jus recently, 2" OME lift springs. If you are going to lift it, avoid longer shackles and bodylifts and go for the OME lift springs. They are incredibly good. Awesome ride and wicked flex. My bros one was too budget for the shocks aswell so it runs commy wagon rear shocks in the front, and some other random shocks I had lying around in the back. With the motor and the suspension and tyres, it is truely amazing where this thing goes. It kicks the ASS out of 90% of trucks Ive been wheeling with, which mostly consist of heavily modifed non road legal wagons. Im not a massive fan of the 4age and would go swift gti next time but the things that make it good are Suspension (it just ran out of flex before and it cross axle situations it plain sucked, and the ride was crap) Decent tyres (make a huge difference to teh wheelability) Motor (cause you gotta be able to spin them tahs) Seat time (mods dont make a truck great, drivers do) Leave it without lockers for now, with the right driving these things go anywhere!
  3. Right well you asked .... heres a few more picci-tures Oh and its an 84 cab (I think) LN65 model. Cool stuff includes: Patrol diffs autosport suspension seats full hydro steering 1uz (that could be getting a turrrrbro or charger) 35" maxxis creepies with 16" beadlocks (may have gotten hold of a set of 39" tyres for it though) 18" travel fox air shocks A mate and I have been throwing around the idea of trying to get sponsorship and doing the taupo 1000 next year but we'll see how that pans out. Any Q's, ask away
