Default New off road motor

Having completed a 450 mile round trip today to bring my new off road swb Mav home, purchased from Xkaibre, I am now well and truly shagged, decided when I saw it that diesel was the way to go for off road fun, the petrol is great till it gets wet, and I like the wet, and also having rolled it and got a fuel leak, was not impressed with petrol floating on water, it spreads far, so pics of the conversion will be posted as they happen, Rick

Aim to get stuck and be completely self sufficient in extraction, love getting muddy, 2ft deep is good but rare.

Glad to say no ABS, and I need the axles, but I do have a scrapper, what is it you need, Rick
