    No idea how it sounded. I bought it with the broken diff and had it towed to my shop cause i didn`t want to take any risk of causing even more damage. Now it`s nice and quiet. There are some harmonics in the drivetrain starting at about 115km/h but i guess that`s normal for a 4x4.

I was about doing it myself but when i had the differential removed and had a look how complicated this thing is i decided not to touch it. I...

    Absolutely. I love it. Made some wooden door covers today:: Need to find some better fasteners than the oem grey clips. Just looks like ****. Then i made a dump pipe for the grey water tank. It`s almost full now and there wasn`t a way to empty it. So i cut a hole throught the floor...

    So we put in a night shift to finish some of the electrics and the counter top: Of course the last screw my dad put in went directly in the already filled water tank. Well, we got it sorted out. Then it was time to start it`s maiden voyage: I`m absolutely...

    I think I could have fixed it but I didn't feel like messing around with it. I need to get this thing operational, not fix stuff. Also I want the reliability of a new one.

    I`m going to weld some carabiners to the brackets ,so it`ll look like a climbing route and serve as a wardrobe: It`s pretty stout too, so i can hang stuff like backpacks on it also. It`s the factory 4WD option. 2WD standart, push-button 4WD and also a rear locker.

    Tried my new chains today: They`re a little bit too loose for my liking so i think i`ll shorten the inner ring. Not sure how to do that yet, but i got time until next season.. Then i mounted the freshly painted spare tirre carrier with the brand new spare: Made some more cabinet doors...
