Nice!! I, too, need a new soft top. Upholstery shop, perhaps? Or sail shop? Please post what you come up with!
Man, I’ve always wanted those sidebars. I’m not sure I’m better off getting some custom ones made or buy the ARB’s and mod them to fit my Trail Tailor rock sliders.
Probably easier getting some made up, some tube and a mandrel bender and you’ll be in business haha
Any issues with WOF with the new headlights? I’ve wanted to do the same but got conflicting advice.
Will see in May!! Hasn’t been a problem with the other 2 thou. 5 min job to switch back to the hella h4’s for the day haha
Thanks! I’ll look into it. Standard headlights are poor in the troopy.
Ready for those foggy mornings this Spring. 
master over the darkness....Ready for those foggy mornings this Spring.
the enlightened one....
Between the deer and the idiots playing with their phones, I need to see and be seen.
Nothing like driving RHD to see all the folks fumbling with their phones while driving
Installed some new rear leafs, shackles, bushings on my 75. It had 2 very miss matched, hobbled together leaf springs packs when i got it. There was damn near 0 travel.
Went with terrain tamer "comfort" leafs( not parabolic$), and the matching shackles, bushings.
Old vs new
Shes sitting pretty now, certainly gained some travel and is much smoother. Rear sits a bit higher than the front unloaded, just how I like it.
I imagine they will sag down a bit with miles and weight.
I also put an ARB in the rear dana 60 along with new bearings and seals.
Loved being able to use the factory spots for the switch plates. On
to the front locker next week.

Out with the OLD (a somewhat useless center console / rear heat) and in with the NEW ( frig / freezer console).

It was sourced and installed by Odd Iron Off Road. I do know the “70 Series Store” in Australia has them on their website.
New visors, old ones were a touch dirty.
