i dont think it will matter to much, some bikes use the colour of the tank rather than the plastics, i have no idea why but my mates was mostly red but because the tank and a few over bits were black, it was classed as black :S I'd check and see though.

No major updates its too cold to work on the beast atm!

Purchased and waiting to go on -

1.5" suspension lift front and rear lift springs.
Roof bar with 5 spots
Tow bar
front spots
8ft x 4ft ally chequer plate.

To do -

Paint camo
Purchase front bumper off vitara_mad (if he still has it when i got the money lol)
New exhaust as current one is blowing bad, i think causing it to run rich (got 26 miles to just under half a tank yesterday :/ )
Pick up conversion
Purchase free wheeling hubs
Actually take it offroad!

Haha just realised who you are...... Bradders = Asbo = Ben
I did the work on your Mk2 Hilux when you first had it, with Dan. Such a small world off roading. Vits looking good. You sold The Hilux yet?

Pajeros are pretty good. But they need lifiting and bigger tyres to improve ground clearance. Size and weight is one of their biggest problems. Not exactly manouverable in tight spots.

I'm the same. Haven't had time. Still waiting on rockwatt before i can put the 1600 in.

Just trying to sell a load of spares in the mean time. Probably give it a few more weeks then weigh the scrap in.

The motivation comes in fits and starts. I've got tha much gear in the garage, waiting to be fitted, its such a ball ache to do the little jobs i have because all the stuff needs moving to make space to work.

I'll get it sorted eventually.
