After a bit of drilling and swearing it's in! Looks like it was made to fit even though it was for an SJ. I'm well chuffed.

Is it me, or is it really clean in there?

:tongue: Yes she's clean!

It's my only vehicle so I do look after it. The roll bar will be extended soon enough to make a roll cage, should look good and give me a bit of protection...I rolled my old SJ and don't fancy doing the same in the Vit!

Nothing as yet, I need to get some steel pipe to make up the cage, but an exhaust is being made at the moment and that should be on soon (ish) :lol:

Not really an update but it's time to respray the Vit. I've seen Dan's SJ and quite like the idea, but with a tweak. Grey body, black grill etc and gunmetal or black wheels. Any thoughts?

Had a bit of a problem today, popped over to a mates house and the exhaust was hanging off! So a new one is being built, going to dump the second silencer and run it straight through with a cherry bomb.

Also changed the leaking rocker box gasket to find 3 valve screws were just about on! I had the same problem with my SJ410, not the best design in the world, a drop of Loctite and the job's a good 'un!
