Welcome aboard. Lots of ideas on here. Have a look through people’s project threads. I’d start by giving it a good old service. If it’s 2.7 try to get mineral oil rather than semi as it definitely made a difference to mine. Replace rear diff oil with proper limited slip diff oil. Then start checking and cleaning any rust and then waxoyl it. Then I’d be thinking about mods. Main thing is enjoying the truck
Welcome:thumb2
Plenty of help and advice to be had on here.
Talking my language with your interest in green Laning.

Welcome to the club! :thumb2
My girl is a swb 4.2 Patrol but I do a lot of greenlaning trips with a swb terrano van (and others!).
I'm based in Dundee so not too far. What horses have you got? We have a few Clydesdales :)

Welcome aboard :thumb2
I too drive a heavily modified SWB Van as you'll see in my sig below, if you're after any ideas for modding, click the blue link saying "Porject Thread" below and get the kettle on and that should keep you entertained for a few hours :thumb2
I have to ask though, you said thanks for the wishes "guys & girls too", I'm sorry to let you know but Barrbeast is actually a male, it's hard to tell sometimes, but you'll get used to him after a few off road meets :thumb2

Hi and welcome :)
Nothing worse than having someone steal from you, lowest of the low :nono
Whereabouts in Scotland are you from?

Could be a Girl thing, but I love getting me some new Wellies and Walking boots!
Also, welcome to the fold! (I'm a little later than everyone else! :lol)
Looking forward to seeing some pictures!
Definitely take note of the mods on Banshee's threads! :thumbs
All the best. Jay
