Got me an Escudo! *New Pic's*

Post by 4x4Matt »

Well I've been on this forum for a while but without a 4wd.. untill this weekend gone when I acquired a 1992 Suzuki Escudo off ICEKAYAK - the one that he advertised in the for sale section :D

Has a few extras:

*30x9.5x15 Kumho Powerguard Mud Tyres
*'Blue Spoke' ROH Wheels (Painted Mags, not whitespokes)
*Yellow Rear 10,000lb Rated Tow Hook (Fitted using Rated Bolts, and 6mm RHS)
*Yellow Front 10,000lb Rated Tow Hook (Fitted using Rated Bolts, steel plate sandwiched inside/ stainless outside of chassis)
*Blue Custom Front Bar (just a Single Curved Bar) to gain maximum approach angle.
*Custom front thick aluminium checker plate bash plate (not a skid plate as such) only covers bottom of radiator/engine bay/front crossmember etc.
*Approx 40mm lift - Yellow Springs, Red Rear Shocks

All this was done by Chris (ICEKAYAK) so will be a great starting point to work from.

**Pic's a couple of posts down**

Very nice ride

I'm sure that you will enjoy it once yon get it dirty
There is no mechanical problem so difficult that it cannot be solved by brute strength and ignorance.
