i had the idea for a 6x6 conversion a long time ago and i have done some research on it so i know it could be done and has been done on an sj.
does anyone know of one thats been done before or have any info on how a suspension and drive system could potentially work on it?

I saw a three axle SJ camper a long time ago. The rear axle was dead but apparently he had plans to make it 6x6.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Fairly sure L/R uses a drive through rear diff.
1988 Samurai - Truck Cab & Tray Back - 1.6 8v & HIF44 - Snorkel - Stack Exhaust - PAS, YJs & 33s - Trussed, Gusseted & Pumpkin Capped Axles - 4.3 R&Ps - 4.16 T/Box - Rear Air Locker - Full Float Back Axle & Discs - RCV Front Shafts - X-Eng Handbrake - Custom Fuel Tank

Rhino Ray did a couple of SJ 6 wheelers, but the rear axle wasn't powered

Sid James gone but never forgotten
Jimny 1.6 not as good as an SJ but still good
