Hey guys,

MEAN SITE! My girlfriend and I are planning an overland trip from London to Cape Town via the Middle East at the end of next year.
I've researched this for a while but there seems to be various information that's hard to find.

What are the chances of us finding an 80 in the UK with electronic diff locks all round?
What companies would you recommend to carry out the work on the truck?
How much (including labour) would you estimate for :
- ARB rear bumper with LHS/RHS wheel carriers?
- Sump/steering and transmission underbody guard?
- Full OME susp. upgrade.
- Safari snorkel.
- Front Runner 160l tank.
- National Luna or similar split-charge system with 3 batteries.
- 6 x steel rims with BF Goodrich AT tyres.
- Security safe.
- Roofrack.
- Eezi Awn or similar roof-top tent.

Also, would it be easier for us to construct our bootspace to organise our stuff? Or is there an off-the-shelf system that you can use?
Annnddd finally..
How much to completely service the vehicle to ensure it's as reliable as possible? Possibly reconstruct the axle[s]? Big end bearings?

Thanks very much

Adam
