Here's my rocky. You may recognise it from such episodes as the 4x4 Extreme action December (I think) DVD

Winch
33" Jungle Trekkers
Cut Guards
Extended and relocated shackles in rear (Extra down travel without going much taller)
To come are some kind of upgraded diffs/axles. Probably looking at Patrol. When I do that, may look at links too... Lock it, Link it, Crawl it, Break it, Fix it :D
33's look big on that. wierd looking flare/mudflap type thing on the front. Would go well offroad though i reckon.

Mainly play around Yalwal - I've only been into this game for about two years (Well, with my own truck anyway) so it's all still relative new to me. Enjoy having a play around the main camping area @ yalwal, as well as tree root, dustys. Will be having a crack at 6 stage very soon.

Ha ha, nice work. Buffed it out yet?
Believe it or not, no panel damage. I busted a rear light as well yesterday. Same area but prior to tipping it over...

I guess if you're gonna roll it, it's best to do it in the mud! I'm a huge fan of the Rocky, definitely a great car to get you into the 4x4 game. I started off with a Feroza before needing more cargo room and going to the hilux. Never looked back. Still miss my 180sx though :(
Yah - had an excavator on hand so that made the recovery real easy....
So much fun and the rocky isn't a 'small' four wheel drive like the feroza....
