Long over due to be done but better late than never i guess.
We have had the 120 for just shy of 3 years now and a few additions have occured during this time. When purchased it was already fitted with the safari snorkle and alloy factory bar. Had also been lifted 2 inches using EFS shocks with HD King Springs.
One of the first things to be done was throw on a set of cooper s/t, which after a conversation with the tyre guys it was decided to fit 265/70/17 as opposed to the stock 265/65/17. Finally the speedo actually reads correctly. It wasn't too long before a set of outback ideas recovery points and Brown Davis bash plates were added. The recovery points have been rather useful on many a bush trip to help others out, so far haven't needed them to pull me out but there is always a first. The bash plate now has a series of small dings where it has skimmed the top of a few hidden rocks in river crossings, certainly well worth it.
With a fair number of waterholes and potential water crossings in the area it only made sense to extend the diff and gearbox breathers into the engine bay. Somewhat of a custom job with running vacuum line from barbed fittings on the diffs/gearbox up to a piece of aluminium angle cut and drilled to suit. The actual filters were purchased from the local opposite lock store.
