Straight to work I see! Looking good and I'll be following this build with interest...
Can't wait to see the lift and bigger tires installed. |

I recognize those damn ferry lines!! Went to Vancouver Island last August. Was 3 minutes "late" to make our reservation time. Lost our reservation, got stuck in the standby line, and ended up missing the ferry. Had to wait for the next one. Rolled into Cougar Creek campground after the gate was locked and had to sleep in the car. Love those ferries.
Nice Disco, though. :D If you're ever passing through Parksville again, give me a shout - I can hook you up with a ton of back country camping spots up Island. |

Remember you've got brand new panhard polybushes on the white one that might be worth swapping over onto the new axle when it goes in! carry on... :p

Glad to hear it's going well so far, good luck with the rest of the transfer!

Firstly its awesome to see 2 forum members working together, helping each other out! Amazing folks on here, some of which go out of their way to help each other out. Secondly awesome build, Disco looks good and I like what you did to the plastic sections on the front and rear bumper. The little details.... Your cabinets look good and the fabric looks both professional and clean. My only question right now is your choice of building material for the cabinets. Plywood? How well will plywood cabinets fare, loaded with camping gear, during a long bouncing voyage in the bush?

Couldn't get back to working on the truck for about a week due to some crazy hours at work, but I am happy to announce that the suspension swap is complete! The original plan was to just swap the rear coils and shocks leaving the original axle in place, but the whole lower spring mount at the bottom disintegrated away when I was taking it off... So I had to swap the rear axle as well. The white truck had some nice new rotors and calipers so those will be kept for future swapping as well.
Attachment 30077 Attachment 30078 Rolled the little tires under the truck on blocks for fun. #hellaflush dude. Looks like a street ready disco now LOL Attachment 30079 Attachment 30080 Rear bumper swapped over as well, old one was a little dented up, plus this had a CB antenna already mounted.
