Geez Yarno, you've really taken the plunge on this one. Good stuff! :armsup: :cool:

Really look forward to seeing how it progresses. Are you doing the job yourself then?

Yeah well with the engineers I don't know as I'm just doing this (and Hoping) and seeing after if it will pass, if somthing needs fixing I will do it, as it's only a leaves suspension system (simple). So it's the steering and welds are the worrie, plus the 3" body lift that hasn't been passed before now.... Here hoping.... Me feeling lucky..

Hopefully won't lose any as I am getting a 300mm slip joint put into a hilux shaft which costs neer $500 on its own, not cheep so I would hope it dosn't lose any at all.
There also 15" travel shocks makes it flex heaps.... I love it :D :D

don't know if its the first Isuzu in Oz but I'd hope it's the first MU at the least....

cheers
