I have some ideas on diff guards. Let me get a couple complete and I will post up some pics.
On a side note the truggy wouldnt start today so I am forced into tracing down each damn wire and seeing where it goes.. Wish me luck...
I am going to figure out which circuits to keep and the rest is coming out.

Well after great consideration I believe I have decided to scrap this build...
Well at least the rest of the body and build it back as a Defender
Will get some more updates once some body panels have been had and I have started making progress.

Fixed that days ago. I've decided to remove the rest of the rusted out body and start the rebuild as a defender. I just don't want to deal with the rust and always wanted a Defender so I've decided to take the plunge and make my own..

Will you keep the 100" wheelbase?

Yea the 100" wheel base is the plan. May try to stretch a couple more inches out of it in the rear end.

Yea you can watch that a 4x4 is born series and see the majority of the how. It's gonna be a long term project now. Getting a bulkhead first then will start rerouting the wiring and deleting more circuits.
