That is pretty ordinary really, take the mogs and hydro off and its a run of the mill gutted rangie, no mention of the running gear so i assume its stock - yawn ! Seen better rangies in oz that are road registered.
Saddle up tonto, its the not so loanrangie! . 98 TDI DISCO lightly modded with more to come.

It would have had a ZF auto and a borg warner T-case when new. I don't see any problems with running a ZF and LT230 with mog axles. It would be a good setup.

The modified Mog axles, hydro steer, shocks and wheels would have to be worth $10 alone (even at 2nd hand prices). But it does look a bit high.

Agree with the lifted/stability comments.

Interesting in the UK and EU where portals are fitted to LR and others they seems to drop the body as much as possible. Guess u don't need to go that high given the diff clearance advantage of portals, and the CG issues that arise from enourmous body height.
