Hi From New Member

Post by Andrews » Fri Aug 22, 2014 1:45 pm

Hi All, We are just in process of having a bit of reengineering done on my Mrs truck but as I do most of the more simple spannering on it thought this would be the place to pick up info .
My Mrs bought herself a rebuilt truck about 5months ago , ive been offroading and messing with trucks for about 9 years mostly Fronteras and KJ jeeps but cos of cost have also got myself a 2.0 gv lwb which although wearing al lterrains and new suspension wont be getting any further mods .
However the Mrs (Helen btw) has got the mud bug big time .Here is her truck . Oh and we are also 4x4 responders for Hants and Berks 4x4 response :D

Hi and welcome to the club! That LWB looks familiar... I've probably seen it up at Ray's!

:welcome: to the forum

Is that the re-boddied 1.6 auto lwb that ray had up for sale not long ago? looks very nice.

I have lifted your restrictions so you can now use the trading section :doublethumbs:

I don't think it is that one, I was up at his workshop last weekend and it was still there...
Could be wrong though

Hi Scottie , and a big thankyou for removing restrictions . No its not lol .Its was originally a 91 Sammy but has the new body and originally an xud 1769 diesel pug motor , but now has a much younger 1905cc xud pug motor , ray did the front bar as well .
We have used it a few times and its pretty capable at places such as d1 and slab but it being re engineered in a few areas and generally fettled and finagled till its just right and then various bits are being painted an in yer face purple lol.
Whilst we are on the subject who do we enquire to about some club stickers as advertising is always good and the truck has gotten a lot of interest recently and has appeared twice in 4x4 mag in recent months , this month included .
