Hi all
Just about to pick up a SJ413 for 500 Euro out here in germany where i live, the prices out here are alot higher than Uk but i got him down from 1400 so not bad, and it leaves me 500 euro to sort it out i want a road legal off roader. Any tips on where to spend my money and what i could get done for 500 bucks?

hi,
the build threads are a good way of picking up some ideas, but it sort of depends how for you want to go. people come up with all sorts of nice ideas. usualy they are acompanied with nice lovely pictures so when your sctratching your head thinking what the hell are they on about, the pic explains all.
from what i gather people usualy go for some bigger wheels and better tires, some nice lights, heavy duty bumpers, some nice seats, or a winch bumper.
Its up to you at the end of the day buddy, but if you want to know some thing have a search or ask, people are really nice and helpfull on here.

Tyres first for sure. Then see what you have left over for suspension and other bits.
Only problem is if you want bigger tyres you generally need to fit the springs at the same time.
As above look at few build threads and see what others are doing.
