Now then few bits done !!

rear winch bolted down, top now welded also along the chassis. Had to cut the boot floor out but it should be ok as it's covered by the load liner :)

Now the plan is to get some side gears, have my diff built. Whilst waiting seem weld all this lot together, make pâtés to go over the ends ect. And mount the shock mounts.

Eventually build the axle up and paint it.

Where in the move now !!

Mike :)

It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
