Can be standard, or heavily modified, but let's have a look at the 4x4's being used on PH...

I'll start. Pretty much standard except for a diff drop, 1.5" spacer lift, custom transfer case bracket, custom bumper, (by custom, I mean a man welded it for me), and some home made underbody protection. tyres are Insa Turbo Sahara jobbies. It does me thus far.

Mine, have owned it for 10 day's now. 2004 TDV6 HSE auto.



Picture's the morning after i bought it, taken at college carpark. Yes i am a student and that's my car. Paid 100% by me.

Then, 4 day's into ownership. hehe



Coped pretty well but i was running road biased tyre's so the thick mud proved challenging at times.



Good fun though. Plan's are to make it into a full G4 challenge replica and enjoy it.

I wont lie, i was very nervous taking it off road. Was new and is rather expensive to me so i didn't want to break anything on it.
The "splash" picture doesn't show a sneaky bd rock that mangled both side steps as we had to come back the same way as the track further up was unpassable to our group.

Here's our '64 109 for general rambling about. Running a 200tdi on SVO and 3.4 RR diffs.



Our more recent addition..........TD5 with a few mods.



And one of my old ones....this one is now resident in Virginia, USA!



Now somewhere near Boston, Lincs I think.

My little Suzuki LJ80Q, 30 yrs old and rebuilt by an expert. Massively modified to go offroad although I normally just use her for gentle laning as she's very rare (only 12 left on the road in the UK). Very occasionally she gets to go and play properly offroad and she's tough as old boots - tiny wheel base and track means she fits in between obstacles with ease and she just keeps on going!

SJ1300 engine, 5 speed box & transfer box so flies along very well indeed compared to the weedy original, sj axles with disc fronts, power steering, reverse shackled and spring over axle conversion plus a very big, heavy duty body lift (hence extended brake hoses) with long travel modern pro-comp shocks means she's got awesome ground clearance. The mud terrains (15x10.5") give her the grip she needs and driving her is a hoot!!!
