French LJ73 rebuild

Hello
I am a french boy, I'm just 20 years old and make a lot of mistake so don't care about them.
I'v juste rebuild a LJ 73 of 1991, it come from Italie, the engine is the 2LT2 with 90 cv but I change it because it was neely to brake. If put a 2LT2 which have 165 000 km, I took of the carroserie, I change the back of it because it was all rust, and I put plastic element.
I put a suspension +8cm (+2.5') lift suspension kit with OME shocks and rear King Springs and HZJ 79 front springs with chocks.
The tyre look like a bit small.
If made my self the rear and front bumper with a jerrycan support and a wheel support.Name:  DSC01480.jpg

Great looking truck You can put up more pics if you link them to your own web site or buy a silver star next to your name for $20 USD a year.

Thats a nice work shop you have ,lots of space and a fork lift

Hi All:

Bon jour! Thanks for sharing your BJ73 with us!

What other plans do you have for the truck?

Regards,

Alan

I really like the looks of the LJ 73. Probably a way softer ride than the 74
