There's not much of the mitsubishi left, it's been a long journey to get to where it is now.

Spec is;
2.8 isuzu 4jb1tc turbo diesel
Range rover zf4hp22 automatic gearbox
Land rover lt230 transfer box
Landcruiser hdj80 elocked axles
Superwinch h14 pto winch
37x13 boggers

I'm in the middle of making a cage for it to stop the body getting any more battered.

Got the front half of the cage started today, this is the main roll structure done. I'm going to do all the body protection and triangulation in smaller tube.

That's a unique cage design. I kinda dig it.
Kewl project, I'll be watching.

Its a fairly conventional cage for the uk, the front hoop is normally one piece but my design will still meet the regulations here.

Very cool! With the solid LC axles it looks a lot like a 70 series LC

I do but I they won't mean much as my chassis rails aren't standard, and i'm using a landrover steering box.

I think i've about finished putting tubes in the cage now, I just need to build the snorkel and finish off the mountings then i can take it off and fully weld it all.

My mate owned it. I was at KORC not long ago while he was talking to you about fixing his lockers.
