That car you sit in to go to work could be the save if you had the dosh to throw at it :lol:

Im quite interested in the Dakar IFS units, most are IFS as htey are better at absorbing bumps at speed, just articulation is restricted a tad, though a well set up IFS with front lockers ( not fronties ) can get great grip, though at bit of a hand full in slippery ice or snow.

I'm wanting to put massive lift on mine BUT wifey says no as she'l not be able to get in (She's Disabled) ... so its looking like 2/3" susp lift and maybe a 2" body lift oh and some Massive (well bigger lol) A/T's ... too many miles for mud tyres ... saving pennies at the mo :dance:
