Hi All,

A new frontera owner here.

I got my hands on a 1998 2.0i Sport that has already had some work done to it.

Front suspension already cranked up a bit and Land Rove Coils on the back.

2" Body lift installed.

LPG system already installed.

I am going to be doing large amount of work to it so will keep everyone posted and if I do something to it that has not been covered on here before I will post it.

Planned work: (Some of this work does not have to be done, yet I like doing preventative maintenance)
Top to bottom clean and respray to stop and prevent any rusting.
A good service on the engine.
New Shocks
New bushings all around.
Probably change the ball joints
Going to fab up a front and rear bumper. (Front for winch and rear to include Nato Hitch.)
Full External Roll Cage.

Thanks

Rob

Hi and welcome
It was once said that the Devil would never dare to cross the River Tamar into Cornwall for fear of ending up as a filling in a Cornish Pasty.
