2014 and your trucks?

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Get the Lwb on the road with a j20a fitted!

Possibly sell the blue SJ?? Haven't decided yet but it's either that or rip it to pieces again and turn it into a buggy with LJ skins :rockin:

Get the samurai axles ready to go on

Full float rear axle

Got a standard set of yj's to go on the back

Could probably do with undersealing it again to keep the rust at bay for a bit longer.

I well and truly lost that battle! Fingers crossed this tin top I bought is as solid as it seems. May try and start stripping it down this weekend.

Just been out and sorted a load of scrap out. Hoping for a £100 worth, the alloys will be £35-£40 alone.

I vote turn the blue one into a caged buggy with LJ skins. What about those fibreglass LJ body parts from Germany?
There's three ways of doing things:

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

Fibreglass panels on a buggy is a no-no! They would get destroyed! I already have half an LJ body to use anyway ;) I'm quite tempted to start the buggy from scratch to be honest, the blue SJ might have to go.
