Love it:thumb2

Martin , that is super tasty! :naughty

So those wheel arch extensions are the same as the ones I'm putting on... My only concern was the ones on the rear passenger doors have no fixings in the bottom?

How do they look and feel on the doors?

Gorilla Glue!

 

[Mr K]

[Mr K]

Yeah these are genuine Kut Snake arches from Aus and they are for a GU4 Patrol :thumbs

 

[Jay666d]

I loved the look of them but too much pricey for my pocket... Maybe if I stopped buying 'Fantasy Coins' !!! :lol

They should be the same fit on the back door as mine tho...

With the size of the tyres and the huge amount of flex there is a lot of work to do to get everything clear.

Interior is having to come out to address, and modify the footwells, modify everything.

The whole front end is getting cut with most bits thrown away. The same with the back.

Massive amount of work, but the suspension flexes even more now than in the previous pictures! :clap

Here's Dale chopping the front bumper. With having someone in the picture it gives a good impression of sizes. Dale is 6ft 2

 

[britrb]

Looks like he's getting munched!

 

[Blocky10]

Just realized the wheel is still bolted on! I thought it was just standing there:lol
Serious flex:bow

Done properly then well done. Looks great

Wow where are you going to go to put it through its paces? Rick

 

[Mr K]

Thanks guys.

Not thought about testing it yet, just need to get it finished first and experience it first. The fun will come at some point :bow

Id probably prefer to do rock crawling than mud slugging and some epic lanes.

Well it should really be a go anywhere motor, waiting to see it in action, Rick

You would have to get yourself to one of our lake District meets.
Some of the best rock crawling the UK has to offer:thumb2
