(another) New Chch member

[petefj40]

Hi there to everyone!
I've been a member for a few months but haven't been online much.
So far I've found this place great. It's interesting to see what others are doing with there 4x4's.
I'm fairly new to offroading. The main reason I brought a 4x4 was to tow a tandam trailer/x2 quads. The original 4.2 petrol was ok but smokey. So I then went to a chevy LS1. Added power steering and front disc brakes. I'm not looking back from here. It really is a weapon. If I strengthend up the drive train I'm sure it pull wheelies!
But there is still room for improvement on my fj40.

Yep I'll add more pix later.
What are my future plans for the FJ40? I want to fit a soft top, rebuild my spare gearbox/transfer case before throwing that in. Then a paint job.
I use it as my everyday runner.

I'm in the Brighton area. You?
