Halelujah - praise the lord

Mine would also have to have a paid up fuel card....

Amen to that Bodge!

Ahh free fuel.....

Truely heaven.

I guess I'm a bit dull, but what I have I am happy with at the moment anyway!!!!

I wouldn't mind a front locker, upgrade the rear to 24 spline air locker, a dual battery system, RS fiberglass flares and a snorkel, but apart from that Aquarangie goes well off-road.

And as Ragin'Rover brought up, Bosch All round where ALL awitches and functions work consistently. You little beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

perhaps...how about...

full unimog running gear including g/box, transfer and ofcourse portals

Engine Mercedes-Benz OM 502 LA - 16L (yes 16L) twin turbocharged/intercooled V8.
390kW (530 hp) @ 1,800 rpm
2,400 Nm (1,775 lbft) @ 1,080 rpm

Ultralight spaceframe

Now that is a little overboard

I think you need to upgrade you axles with 1,775 lb/ft !!!!
I thought we need to stay with the LR 'looks'

NO FAIR!

I don't wanna play no mo!

you would need to put drivers seat over rear axle....

16l of V8 power = woody

s111 aussie ex army at 100"
front 3 link rear a - frame
vw v10 diesel turbo 5 speed
t/f case must be front,constant,rear selectable.
(gotta do donuts and front digs)
38" swampers,boggers and bf crawlers.

Mogrover with an auto and a rear steer axle

Sam

one with a handbrake that works and no oil leaks

Is that what you're building, Sam? Been quite lately...

No, but I should be - I got all the bits to do it.

Sam

OMFG - that would be awsome....


go on sam...

you could then put a granny in it and she would win XRCC

Yep - probably could.

Sam

S11A LWB dual cab softtop on Rangie chassis,
Inverter powered vacumn cleaner supercharged 4.6 with triple Strombergs & red slurpee injection,
CVT box with 3 speed Auto transfercase,
Unimog diffs front & rear with a coil spring over conversion and Lockwood deadlockers,
500/90x22 titanium studded tyres with replacable mud lugs & PTO driven spare on the bonnet.

Hijack warning!

Sam, what bits do you need for mog 4WS? I've started to think along these lines, and think I can get a second Volvo set to fiddle with.

Front steering boxes on a shortened rear axle tube, front halfshafts and rear diff would build one fully functional rear steer axle, am I right?

Or do the puzzle for left hand drop and build a badass 4WS portaled P38. How's that for the mall?

Nah - its easier than that. I just got another complete mog 404 steer axle that I just throw in the back....just got to chase up the hydraulics.

Sam

What about drop side and drive/coast side of crown? No issues?
