Walkthrough of "Tiny" the Ultimate Land Rover Defender 110. This is probably the most capable road legal 4wd in Australia. On 37" Tyres and with Maxidrive portal axles it has nearly 50 cm ground clearance under the diffs.
The Maxi drive rear axle is converted to rear steer and a separate joystick in the vehicle allows for the rear wheels to be steered independtly to the front.
To have this as a legal road modification, it required three different security mechanisms to ensure it can only be used off the road.
The Defender's engine has been converted to an International 2.8L Diesel truck engine which is a very simple but highly reliable diesel engine. The vehicle originally started as rare Land Rover defender 110-panel wagen but was converted to a Single Cab Ute with a V-shaped rear end to further improve the departure angle.
The Land Rover was build from the ground up with simplicity and extreme offroad capability in mind and there is very little you can't conquer with this vehicle.
