Here you have some pictures of my 2001 GV V6 manual.
It has a 3 inch body lift and a 2 inch suspension lift.
Alot of cutting of the fenders and bumbers and these custom fender flares put on.
It also has differentials from an auto V6 wich are a little lower and a Quick air compressor in the hood.

What did you do about gearing? Still have the 4.3 axle ratio??
-
Hmm, i thinks so..i bought it lifted..but im pretty sure its all original except the differentials
And it works great...its not slow in acceleration or any thing..just fantastic
-
Awesome GV! Those tires definately give if a nice "beefy" look.

When I passed through Iceland --- I noticed that all the 4wd's were modded significantly yet... the bodywork was so well done that it looks "factory"
I personally think that Iceland are the kings of using fiberglass
you should see the landcruisers\hilux's Nissan Patrols running huge tires (like the smallest I've seen was 33's and most are up there in the 38's)
Yet the body work to accomodate them look like they were "factory"... amazing detailing
Whereas here in North America, we kinda favor the "tough" look with bushwacker flares with alot of hardware, trimmed fenders & custom metal winch bumpers
I was telling ngrover over the phone, that I saw tons of customized bumpers out there which hid the winch inside the "stock" looking bumper
cool stuff

Yeah, that´s the icelandic way ;)
But you say "most are up there in the 38´s" but the fact is alot af those trucks are rolling on 44´s :D
And my suzuki on 35 inch is just a smurf in the mountains when wheeling with these guys :D

Sorry, but I dont understand the question.. But i´ll try to explain the gun laws.
We can have guns at the age of 20.
You have to take a "gun class"
For the first two years you can only have a manual shotgun or a small riffel
After that you can have a semi-automatic shotgun
Pistols are not illegal but you cant carry them arround and have to have a special license...
Guns are only used for hunting here in iceland, not even the cops have guns :) (except ofcourse the swat)
-
ok, you did understand me ;)
almost the same as here in Norway then :)
