Very nice, although I might be biased

Hi Darren, I see quite a few on here have done this ( had some advice off Blackwolf before deciding to do it & a lot of reading) out of interest what brand of filter are you using? |

Ah sorry, I've only got the RAI with the standard air box. Darren

Heh, heh
In all seriousness though, probably not. It's a nice bit of kit but the benefits of the RAI and the mods to the airbox to fit it are huge so I'm not sure what else I'd gain, to be honest. I guess the filtration may be marginally better but I'm not convinced that it's a problem that needs solving.

Fair point.....I just got tired of wrangling the top off in Northern Africa every other day to knock the filter out ( that was pre Naka rai though)

Just a little thing that used to annoy me, led headlights & normal lights everywhere else. Spoke to classic car LED’s & Duncan supplied everything that was needed. Look at the difference on the front sidelights!

Had chance to get the fridge freezer in ( custom tray ) and finish the bamboo & fit the kitchen doors. But that’s it! Way too cold...

How’s it going Gary? Decided to keep it the same as the truck (Indus silver) to try & give it that factory look. Please with it up to now, just waiting on the tanks / wheels and then it’s onto suspension / diffs / output shaft / clutch etc etc

Tanks arrived from Safari Equipment. Sill done but main awaiting new rear lines as I managed to snap the barbs!
