To be honest not that long, all the suspension bar work and roof rack went on fairly quick with in 3 months but they are never really finished.
Any changes in store for your Suzuki?

Transfer gears has to the best by far followed by the rear locker even with stock tires and no lift these 2 mods will get you further on the track than anything else.
What has been your worst modification?
That's a hard Question I don't think I have one.
If you could have anybody else's zook, who's would it be and why?
I'm happy with mine. I had the opportunity to build what ever I wanted, I've owned many different types of zooks over the years from mild to wild and my current jimny is the happy medium.
What has been your best 4wding trip?
I've been to many different places, but the old school sections of Yalwal where you can't get to anymore were some great trips.
