Great photos mate.
I can't wait till I get my new 4by, I'm doing the Perth - Darwin trip to break it in!
I really feel like I'm 5 yrs old or so waiting for a new pushbike from Santa!

decided it was time for a lift + if i put more than my normal load of tools on it was almost on the bump stops. the kit i use was from dobinson just a 2in kit all tho the rear sitting 70mm higher and the fronts a 95mm

i had to try on a 33 looks like there would be plenty of clearance i was going to try and fit a37 for s*#ts and giggles but it was going to be to much effort

That is a good setup you have there
I would have preferred a space cab but needed the extra seats

love your car, what are you going to do for a lift kit or have done? I am picking up my SR model this afternoon from Macarthur 4wd where I am getting a colour coded ARB bar and flares fitted. Very exciting I will keep an eye on your posts and pictures.

Looking good mate. One thing to keep in mind is not to go too deep, you don't want to obscure your rear view mirror. Keep up the great work though. Good to see blokes having a go.....
