Heres mine, 3.1TD, Manual, 130k miles, was a bog standard duty when I got it.... Its a bit scabby but was mega cheap with good MOT. Good enough to see me through the winter anyway.
I've added a few bits since then including heated seats from a citation and a few other extra bits n bobs.
Added a roof rack, lights, roof spoiler + lights, few interior goodies, CB, alloys, bonnet deflector, wind deflectors, rear ladder etc etc....
still got some +2" landy springs to go on - then it chunky(ish) tyres time
Only had it a few weeks but heres some pics:
I still need to (attempt) get these fitted:

I nabbed it off a trooper I bought for parts. .. along with the bull bar etc.
They normally go for about 60 quid on eebuygum though
Don't do much to be honest... just look a bit jazzy lol _________________ 1997 Trooper 3.1TD Duty Manual - Sheddy winter runabout.

Those bonnet guards are useful if doing a lot of road miles. Saves the front edge getting chipped from flying stones etc while following other vehicles. The chips can get quite deep and let water in under the paint causing the front edge to rot out. Its something I keep considering as I average 25,000 miles a year in mine. _________________ 1990 Isuzu Bighorn LWB Mk.I 2.8TD Manual Lotus Edition

Great looking truck!
I ought to get hold of some Mk 4 arches, if only to hide the rust holes... Do you mind if I ask, were they a simple fit? Do you keep the original wheel arch liners? _________________ 1998 3.1 Duty 1" lift with 265/75 Wrangler DuraTracs. 90,000 miles. |

Like the spare wheel cover, I bet it stops her drawing on the walls too! _________________ Every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff from out of my brain.
