July is kicking off with a whopper of an issue for 4WD Custom Action, with even more custom 4WDs, tech tips and tricks, Readers’ Projects, Roothless Tales and a whole lot more! This month, we feature a hybrid comp truck with a Sierra body sitting on top of a Patrol chassis, custom built by Lukeys 4x4, a mean and nasty looking GU Patrol tackles the sand in some stormy weather, and one of America’s finest exports, a 1985 Jeep CJ-6, shows us how it’s done on Aussie rocks.

Our tech guru Bryan Grant shows us the ins and outs of barwork for your custom 4WD, and pulls apart some of the common myths surrounding the decision between steel vs. alloy. A monster of a supercharged 4.2L petrol 1992 Ford Maverick rips through the Outback Challenge in style and grunt, exercising its GU diffs and Fox Triple-Bypass Air Shox to the limits, and Roothy continues Project Hot Tub by rounding up a Jeep chassis that looks a little worse for wear!

Nathan covers driveshafts in this issue of 4WD Custom Action, and gives us the run down on how important they are in the scheme of your fourby and what to do to keep a driveshaft running smoothly to avoid a tricky situation. We had some great questions for the Ask the Experts section this month, so we asked Paul from Bilstein Racing to lend us his knowledge concerning the ins and outs of shock absorber technology.

4WD Custom Action Issue 003 is brimming with stacks more articles, in depth features, custom 4WDs, money saving tips and even more.
