anyone know how Garry is going with this conversion.
And you thought owning a bedford was going to be easy.

Is good to see someone going up instead of down for a change.

Will the new wheels fit in the archs or do you have to enlarge them a bit?
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Busy, I think if anything that will be pretty much be it, I too am trying to bring myself to cut all the new rear quarters off to fit a decent tyre, (33") Garry did you go with the 33" ? 31.5 are pretty much the limit for std wheel arch unless you get mega height, thus making it a bit (more) top heavy.... glad Garry did do this as makes me feel a little bit more comforting .......love the bar work work bud, looking awesome.....

GU trans case?
 any photo's of your engine bay?
Can I go play now...?

Hey DANO how's yours goin. Yea 33's it sit's good on these we tried 35 but looks to much, The front and rear bars ,transfer case & axles are all gu patrol. The rear guards have to be trimmed both sides and the front axle was moved forward so just a bit more off the front. The springs have to be sorted out to sit level i don"t what it to sit up to much. The engine was moved a bit to the left it was wider than we thought but it sits pretty good now. I could have bought a new 4x4 for what this has cost but i"ll have a LS1 5.7 V8 4X4 BOMB PROOF BEDDI very soon.
