Offroad-Express

Well i got sick of not having a 4wd as a daily driver so i picked myself up a Swb bighorn when i was up in Auckland last week its a 1995 3.1 Turbo diesel Manual with all the extras like Heated Recaro sets, a huge sunroof etc. Here it is when i first got it home.







Its was a bit too roady for my liking so i picked up a set if 2" king springs for the rear, did a ball joint flip, cranked the torsion bars and chucked some 33's on it. The tires scrub a little on the rear of the front wheel arch so may get my self a set of 32's for it. Pics as it sits now:





Thats probly all i will do to it for now except a set of manual hubs for the front.

Nice work on the purchase of a quality 4WD, it really looks the part with just a few mods.

I commented to my better half that it looked hot, apparently that makes me a " FREAK"

How much does something like that cost? My bro is looking at cars and something along those lines would be ideal.

Did you wear your dads truck out dods and he put the hard word on you

Mike

I picked it up for $5000 off trademe.

Yes ive worn it out but havent got the hard word yet, got sick of driving around an old Toyota Corona.

muck???

Personally i think i prefered the 3.5 v6 pajero i had, handled better and was faster, would have bought another one of the pajero diesels wearnt so crap.

Removed the 33's tonight after peeling off half the flare due to the offset of the rims, will look into getting some 275/70r16's for it.

i found you some 32's dodds
