Here you go, a few pics of Steves truck.

It's really nice, but doesn't get out much. I'm sure we will shame him into getting it dirty in 2015.

Cheers mate, yeah I'll get out more next year for sure. Been a bit of an odd year for me has 2014. I'll have a look at this image resizer thingy ta.
I used photobucket on another forum for a couple of years but it's not worked for me for over a year so I've given up on it.

Nice truck! But if it's relatively standard...

How come the snorkel is not on the G13ba's air intake side?

Also, welcome!

I got a bit carried away with messing with it.
You know, like Ya do.
It WAS standard when I bought it, and the idea WAS to keep it pretty much standard and just put slightly bigger tyres on it so it wouldn't get stuck on the chassis rails everywhere, like it did the first time I took it to Frickley.

Good spot on the snorkel though, it's got a 1.6 spi in it from a vitara.
Infact, it's got most of a 1.6 vitara in it.

Right then,
16" gv 7j wheels with 265/75/16 insa turbo tyres, wheel spacers,
+3" springs, modified D-flex shackles, extended shocks, rear disc conversion, x-eng prop brake, rock lobster transfer box and rock watt bucket, virtual lift, landrover flexi arches, sills cut out and rock sliders welded in place, 1.6 spi vitara engine, homemade snorkel, power steering, vitara wiring harness (most of it) vitara steering column and clocks, home made rear bumper, rear led lights repositioned into back door, fuel tank and radiator are where the rear seats used to be, twin zx10r motorbike fans with seperate switches, steel bulkhead behind front seats, fastback roof, 5.125 ring and opinions, homemade front winch bumper with 12000lb winch, bucket seats, vitara bonnet scoop, 4point harnesses, cb radio, spotlights on roof, and I painted it black with a brush.
Like I said, I got a bit carried away. :doublethumbs:
And I don't like leaf springs anymore so when I move house again to one with a proper garage I'm going to make my own coil conversion for it.
Might have missed something out.
