Gotta agree.. the chrome looks too bling for the NISSAN. I also see the XENON in the pic. Nice machines overall.

I feel the original rims of these Humongous SUV are the good looking ones, just a tire change according to the need should do, they are reliable as well.

Original rims look dated specially on those huge M/T tires.

Very well kept Jeep. Love the colour.

Can you please tell what the black box like thing is below the windscreen ( circled in red ) ?

[Frankenstein]

mitrajdeep, that black box has the wiper motor inside with linkages inside the wind screen frame.

One more interesting thing i got to know lately is that the kaisers have a hole on the dash before the bonnet starts that is supposed to be a windscreen washer for which the switch is the black round one on the extreme right on the dashboard pic.

Hi Frankenstein, I must say that your thread keeps me glued and has lots of drool factor. I keep looking at those jeeps multiple times and they are immaculate!
Thanks for taking time and posting the lovely jeeps of Hyd( I come from there as well!).

I saw this one at Saleem's(electrician)... I loved the attention to detail especially when it comes to reinforcing the fenders with the thick metal pipes. And the paint job is extra rugged, grass and twigs are not an issue of discussion, when this one will go offroading, it will simply break branches and uproot saplings without even as much as a scratch. It is absolutely awe inspiring. Would love some pictures of the engine bay and interiors to refresh my memory. I loved the rollcage too. Simple solid and utilitarian apart from being awe inspiring.

Its sure very rough, the raptor on the fenders is very very tough.

I am not a fan of the NGCS , too stiff and suffers during rock climbing .

Right sir, even the MB is as good as this.
I have been there when this Jeep build was in progress, some how i am very impressed with the M38A1 s specs like the
Water fording system
Thicker leaf springs
Carter carb with bigger Jets than the civilian carter carb
Fuel tank capacity
Waterfroof electricals etc
And the best part is its rare

Thank you

Vikram, need a weeks time, what part of the intake system are you interested in, fording system?

Kind of heard it shuts of the air supply to the engine and the engine runs on some gases, not sure.

UBS sir can explain the mechanism.
