101's As Challenge Vehicles

Recommended Posts

Why don't people use 101's as the basis for a challenge vehicles ?

Super strong axles, V8, PTO winch, good angles, big tyres. :)

Truck cab it, and cage it and it should be good through the trees - well good enough, and with good visability.

Low gearing, and you can fit ARB's.

Weight is less than a Rangie I believe.

Parabolics and disc brake conversion should see the job done.

Or have I missed something :P

101 not good when the going is tough. Paul Wightman used to have a 101 and he off-roaded it about ................ once! Downhill sitting in front of the axle is scary. They were also designed for 5ft 6ins tall squaddies - not a lot of legroom.
