Just a thought, have you moved the fuel tank?
If not how you going to fuel it up? cage seems
to cover the fuel filler flap. Great job tho!!!

Well another mile stone in the Jimny's transfomation, I got the cage welded, cleaned up and painted today.

I have taken a load of pics, hopefully of some use to others.
Feel free to copy, #######ise or take some ideas from.

Thanks for all the comments over the past 9 months.

Some pics from today and some very rare ones of our Alan actually doing a bit, only kidding mate thanks for the helping hand.
I have included some closer pics for those interested in copying.











My home made rear bumper finally got it's long over due re-paint






So that's as far as mods for now. I have a clutch to fit and king pin bearings to do. Then get out and enjoy playing for a while. I think a locker and maybe a lower geared transfer box will be next.
