Talking ryan's wacky idea

Now bear with me here, I am might attempt to turn my Hyundai into a cross country soft roader thingymabob, as gay is that sounds I might have somthing here, I'll mod the plastic and metal sheilds from my terranos to fit underneath, possibly fit rally tires and it should be ok, thin high profile tires mean traction and it'll probably be a fun little Bugger, obviously I won't to to the extremes that solarman does regarding mud but I think I might be on to somthing, I gave been spray painting so coluld be slighty high but I think I could do it, as if you look at the Volvo xc 70 for instance, all that is, is a v70 that's lifted, has rock sliders and bigger tires and suspension, dunno if I could lift the atoz as its sub frame and not separate chassis but come on, it would be pretty cool

I'll look more in the morning

I really admire your enthusiasm and creative ideas. Don't ever change and grow up will you

Before modding it though think about the cost of insuring it dude.

reminds me of a person I knew , who thought that putting two 100 watt linear amplifiers in series would give him 200 watt output , but in his defence the said person was young and inexperienced at the time

Thanks mate, that means a lot

I always look for a different route in modding vehicles, not just the same as everyone else, I like to be different
I do cone up with some weird things love pulling things apart and seeing how they work, also see if I can turn it ito somthing else

I even taken vehicle partss to school to show people how they work, won twice with science projects showing how a diff and alternator works, spun up a terrano alternator on the desk with I drill to power a light and charge a battery,

I think it will break before you can say greenlane. You also won't have low box which makes life on the vehicle alot easier.

But go for it if you want the challenge
