I think you should have left the old tyres on the rears, loving the laid back style

Finally feels like it’s getting some where now
Making up some diff breathers this afternoon
Gotta add some jubilee clips to the pipe but that should do the job nicely
Might make up a 3 way t and send one small plastic tube up the snorkel
Filled the axles up with oil
Gotta get it on more level ground and just check the levels again .
Gonna get some more oil to change the oil on the lobster box
Then if I get a change drive it

Got to have a drive and it don’t seem to bad soa so far
But I do have an issue with my transferbox I bought it’s making a slapping noise when you let off the throttle
It has excessive back lash on the input flange off the back of the gearbox but play is in the transfer box
Il see if I can upload a video
Other wise if it wasn’t for that I would of been happy
The lockright in the rear diff gonna take some getting used to as well

Nice articulation! 
The tcase thing sucks though. I don't know how to alter backlash on gears in a tcase (or if you can!). If you work it out, please post pix!

The chatter turned out to be misaligned ujs. 
I’ve been sketchy as of late had a hospital stay with kidney stones currently on my 2nd stent with string seriously now fun but I’m trying todo little bits here and there.
Started on covering up the wheels little mock up here
My front springs are a bit worn il get around to replacing them at some point
Carried on fitting the defenders arches I think they come out well on the drivers side
Passenger side to go but that will be easy
Also got my hands on a 1.6 8 valve 413 gearbox and vitara rad
Supposedly a very good engine that had a few quid spent on it
Gonna check the clutch and replace if needed also I’m gonna do the timing belt and water pump
So il be pulling her front end off to do the conversion
