Many thanks, I appreciate the comments.
Just put the wheels back on today as they've been for powder coating and new rubber.
I'm trying to keep as standard as possible, but with a few, discreet, modern upgrades.

It really feels good when they get that close to the end of the build!

She’s mint you should be proud 👌

Can’t wait to see it out on the roads (or off the road for some gentle laning 😉)

SJs need a few mods in my opinion, at the very least power steering and some more power under the bonnet 😅

Steady as she goes!

:hmm: Green laning, if you can guarantee no..
Water
Mud
Scratchy things
Dirt
Dust
..and no rocks bigger than a dice..I might consider it! :hahaha:

I have assembled a load of parts for electrical power steering (Prius), it'll be a tight squeeze, but could be possible..that's possibly the winter project.

Many thanks Rankine, nd also thank you to all the contributors on the forum, I dread to think of how many hours I've spent reading, researching and having a laugh at the many articles, it's priceless stuff for sure and helped to pass 3 dark winters!
A couple of follow up jobs to carry out and she's truly finished..for now!

So true!
I'm considering some side graphics or leave it as it is, but I can't make my mind up? No rush, I'll ponder for another 3 years! :hmm:
