would tout it on the 4x4 forums diff lock etc then put it on eBay, I would of thought it would have some value, to be made into a quarry basher buggy, but sadly may be worth more in parts, axles are probably worth a bit, and if you sell it you know that when you build your 6 wheel one next( you know you will have to build it because you thought it now ha ha) you will end up paying a fortune for an axle.Ed

Is it an Autobot? Or does a baddie in a Marvel comic own it... I'm sure it goes well, you can see who that is aimed at. Just need a falcon.

This is what a ML looks like giving a G wagon a 'piggy back'...

Danny, Don't forget its beneficial particularly for a road going car to section and enlarge the inner arches than to mess with and raise the suspension to fit your amg big wheels in. Ed
