What Should I Do With My D21

hey i got a 96 td27 turbo but i dont know wat i should do to it first so it performs better off road... any ideas

Injector clean/overhaul, exhaust, diesel mechanic for a checkover/tune.

44" boggers, and diff locks would help.

Haha. Just so you know in reality, 44"s won't fit, but it's a great concept. Rear air locker, front 4wd systems lokka, transfer reduction gears, 2" suspension lift, 2" body lift and mud tyres of a size that will fit (search for previous posts on the matter) is about as far as most people can afford to go.

44" boggers? you'd be the first to try a 10" body lift

Start with a 2" suspension lift and some decent 31" tires on some 15x7 in rims and you'd be laughing.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

You're on to something. If mine weren't a daily driver I'd go for that.

If you took to it with the grinder for 44s, would there be any panels left?
just rip off the front panels and stick some garden edging to the bonnet, she'll be right....actually that sounds like fun...Hmmmm.

I didn't think they were making the next Mad Max movie just yet, but no harm in preparing a vehicle to have it ready!

Seriously though - it depends on what kind of off-road you want to do. I strongly suggest you look through the garage and see what others have done, talk some more with people that do the kinds of things you want to do with yours, then start doing the changes.

You'll be happier with the result if you're making decisions based on better research. Kitting the car lighter for beach work is good but forgetting a compressor to reinflate your tyres is not!

Welcome mate, look at the D22 mod's and alot should suit your needs.
