i just got a old 1988 hj75 converted t dua cab, came from mtnewman mining, who ever converted it build the add on like a caravan, absolutley butcheed it.
@MrT223 mines not built too bad , just a bit on the heavy side , sheet metal they used was a bit thicker than they needed i rekon , my rig weigh's near on 3 tonne as it sit's , haven't even put a long range tank or water tank's in it yet hahaha
@03D51607 4 inch suspension , 2 inch bodylift , front diff re-located forward's 1 inch , 1 1/2 inch wheel spacers (soon to be replaced with -50mm offset 16x8 rim's) , with the 38's i still had to do a little bit of panelbeating at the bottom of the front guards but i rekon you'd be right with 37's.
Im about to bung an LS1 in this old rig , that should make for some fun vid's
@fj40chriso That sounds good! thanks for the reply, may choose the grinder over the bodylift....time will tell, it won't be a road going truck, but would like to stay true to the original shape if I can!
@smashgash1 they're not to bad ay , but it's been lifted a heap and the diff's forwards an inch , only time they really scrub is when it get's airborn and i've got airbag's for the back to fix that

Nice dual-cab, where is the backdoors from?
Would love to have one like that, but think my HDJ80 is easyer to keep legal.
