I haven't got any photos yet, but i've got a HJ47 troopy, running 35's, but due to excessive scrub ( being standard - soa coming eventually) i 4wd with 31's. I find it goes alright so far, but i'll admit i haven't driven it anywhere really hardcore yet. yet. When i get some action shots i'll try to post them here... maybe this weekend... My troopy may become an extra cab soon...

yeah sim.

looking at a short, high tray, with (eventually) drawers under it. and room for 2 spares standing down on the chassis rail and up against the back of the cab.



At the moment it's all just i my head, gotta work out a way for the new improved troopy to not need any of the rusted :roll: panels and sills.
