Why? Not dismissing the idea, but what do you want to gain? Seems to me it would be a lot of work for a ridiculously small pickup bed.

yeah it would be a bit of work. the place im looking at though can make tray extensions and even chassis extensions so i figure with a longer tray it would be cool.
i dont know i just want something original and unique. did i forget to mention im a graphic designer?
yeah i like everything to be orignal. but i also want to make my mark on it and calll it MINE...
im also a cfa volunteer so to have a tray in the back to hold all my smelly gear would be good so it doesnt stink up the inside..

Beware that extending the bed, while giving you more space, will also accentuate one of the Pajero's weak points, its long and dragging ass. That can be fixed to some extent with bigger tires and moving the rear axle backwards but then you run into gearing issues.

It seems to me you would be better served by an L200 or Triton or whatever you call them in Australia. That has five seats and a decent bed and allows you the option to put a cap on the bed.

You'll notice that on the Land Cruiser the axle has been moved seriously backwards.

I chopped my j-top after a roll, added an exo cage and couldn't be happier, I'd add pics if I knew how but I guess you'll have to look at my avatar
