Just a few little things left to go before I move on to lights, CB and winch.

I took the kids up to blue rock dam in it on Sunday for its first trip since I started bolting parts on it.

the kids liked it but only after i put the safari top on it. I took them down the fwy a few weeks ago without a roof and they got a lot of wind in their faces in the back seat. I dropped $400 on a safari and bikini roof and its all sorted. The plan is to put the bikini roof on when the rear seats are out of it to stop sun burn.

I was going through some options with my brother and we might have worked out a way to set up a rifle rest in the back of it shot i can shoot out the back.


You can see the back is sitting lower that the front, that's because the rear bar and carrier weights 73kg and the front bar only weights 27kg. Its going to need a new set of springs after i get a winch to level it out again.
