Here's my little Jimny, not much done to the mechanicals, just a lift kit but a lot of goodies to make life more comfortable in the bush.
Finished job with lift kit.
Sheltered living space, if camping we use a tent.
UHF radio extension speaker behind head.
Front of the box behind the seats showing 2nd battery, fold down table and map storage.
The map storage wound up being used for a fire extinguisher, inverter and CD storage.
The fold down table deployed. Used to hold drinks etc when having a quick snack on the side of the road.
Back of the box with small table, storage, fridge, water outlet, solar regulator, gauges, 240V power point, etc.
Top of the box.
Voltage-sensitive changeover relay for the second battery.
