I do appreciate the critical review of the modifications.
You are right, I am much later to this game, and there are some real experts out there on the Disco, like Jack, Steve Rupp, Sinuhe, Marc Olivares, etc.
It is also obvious that I am bringing many of my own biases into the build, for example the lack of a roof rack, the ARB bumper, etc. I also do not intend to use this truck in extreme terrain. I have other vehicles for that, which are much better suited for the rough stuff anyways.
This truck is mostly a daily driver, a transport for my mountain bike, and a vehicle that I just really enjoy traveling in, though the trips are shorter than typical and concentrated in the Southwest. I may take it to Baja in November.
In reality, there is not much left I have planned for it.
Actually, this is the last of it:
1. Mantec Snorkel (sitting in the shop right now)
2. Diff. Guards. Still need to decide on these. Looking for Mantec weld-ons
3. 3.90:1 gears with ARBs (ready to go in)
4. HD Axles
5. I will most likely reconfigure the rear storage unit to be only two drawers at the bottom, and then three Pelican cases.
6. Finish 12v house wiring (nearly done)
7. Remove side molding
8. Different lights for the front. Something more classic.
9. New rear driveshaft to eliminate the Rotoflex
10. Maybe a set of 7.5 XZLs. Only because I like the way they look - classic. The 245/75 ATs have been great so far.
That is it. It is easy to just keep going and bolting stuff on it. More gadgets. I did that with the Tacoma, a little too much.
