I've lurked around here in a while. Never really posted much only when stuck for things myself.
So heres a latest update on my Fatty.
Thanks to Jereome Andre for the artical on Peters fatty in LRO all those years ago, it was that, that's driven this build, with modern twists.

L322 02 TD6.
SGC Offroad 2" lift kit from USA. 275/65r18 maxxis bighorns. Diso 3 rims with 30mm spacers. Genuine safety devices rack. Now triple battery. Custom winch bumper by twistedsteelworx. Red winch explorer2, on seperate air compressor. Washer bottle change and moved, header tank change and move. Sills all replaced and strenghtened.
Still to do is a snorkel. And dual air compressor suspension setup. And barrel charge cooler, mod to better angle of attack. And a set of sliders. Plus making some ladder for rear tailgate.


Anybody know if Peters fatty is still around?

Thanks Nick

That is a nice looking Rangie!

How did you go about strengthening the sills?

Jim

Cut away all the outer tin. Rebuilt jack points and all other stuff. Then used 5mm steel instead. Welding it to internal body points along the way.

Did you modify the rear wheel arches?

Jim

That is a clean build - too nice to put in the mud now!
very nice indeed.  l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l
