Offroad-Express

first time iv started one of these,
turned this


into this



nice short deck, all led lights, sides are yet to be painted, heaps lighter
pulled out some leaves in the back to soften it up a bit too and gotta remove the moto sticker from the rear window.
fixed a bunch of leaks
still a list of bits to do but hopefully rolling by christmas
then front bar to do
sorry for shitty photos I couldnt pull it outside so the light makes the colour look funny

went dow the ashley river with some mates on friday. winch paid for its self that day haha. then did the clutch and rear main seal today. tomorrow going on the north canterbury 4wd club trip. would post a couple of pics but cant work it out cheers Adam

Took a leaf outa my rear pack plus installed my extended rear shackles only been like 4 months now rear feels more springy and should flex a bit more off-road. see how it goes.









went to pump tyres up on lux and blow me down my compressor running making no pressure. so spent the rest of the day fixing that had a spare 40L tank too so got that all plumbed in so got 80L res now. bit that was broken on compressor was the rubber gasket thing that operates the pressure switch. blow a hole in it. lucky I had a spare 2nd hand pressure switch and while I was at it I decided to get rid of all the air leaks.

went fishing sat will play in shed Sunday,

Made up a shovel holder to mount the shovel on the back next to the hilift jack.

Was actually harder than I thought getting it all sitting correctly. It sits a touch higher than I would have initially liked but at the end of the day it's lower than the hilift.

Used some 4mm plate and some tube I had lying around along with two old bed head mounting star screws. There is a brace on the back side to prevent flexing. Just needs a lick of paint now.
