That's a good starting point. 1995, 3.1, still tight despite a few bushes and bearings in need of attention.
Since my cars operate somewhere between Very-Far-Away and The Center Of Nowhere, there are many things that needed to be added and/or modified to put it up to bush specs.
I quickly replaced the road-biased 245/70 with Toyo Open Country MT in 235/85. These have given me stellar traction and puncture resistance on my 130" Land Rover, who spends most of her time off-road. I'll see what mileage I'll get on the Trooper, who sees more asphalt than the Landy. Here are the tyres (during the bumper build).

I then proceeded to build winch mounts/hi-lift points, winch bumper, rear bumper, and roof rack. Installed a winch (removed from my SWB Land Cruiser, stripped and rebuilt), and lifted the body 25mm with Nylon pucks.






Added finishing plates at the corners behind the winch, for the sake of looks:

I also lifted the fuel tank 50mm: there are 25-30mm available between tank and body anyway, add the 25mm body lift and you've got your 50mm tank lift. Here it is, before and after.


In the cab, I installed an inverter with a 220V outlet, always useful in the boondocks, and a dual battery switch. The dual batteries are not a luxury when you run an auto box out there...


There is still quite some work ahead, but it starts coming together!
