yeh thats what i was looking for
the other thing is the sump, i'm pretty sure thats exactly the same as my 2H (12HT) sump, but i dont know what a 2F/3F sump loooiks like

I think the new one has a 2H with a Safari turbo on it. Also custom front and rear bumpers, but I guess this means they are custom because it has a 2" body lift because it has 35" tyres on 2" raised OME suspension. And the leather interior sounds shmick.

Did it say in that article that it had a body lift. I couldnt even find wat lift springs they put in there (2in, etc)
The new one is black, with arb/emu dakar decals all over it. The winch bar looks like its been customed to fit the hi mount also.

I don't think the article said, but I figured they put on a 2" body lift to clear the 35s. I wouldn't imagine that they would use custom springs, but could be wrong. Anyways, it looks great!
