I still see an axle under there, pity, could have taken the chance to improve clearance!

@arstechnica Having owned a 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 and having suffered the slings and arrows of the abysmal electrical system in that vehicle, the idea of adding more electronics to a Defender gives me hives

That said, it was a super-fun car (when it was running) and I might fall for buying something like this because I'm an idiot and I kinda miss my Defender...
