Hi Rob. She's spot on thanks. I putva gearbox in it earlier this year and a new lift pump about 5 weeks ago. I been looking after her, sat on my drive now gleaming. 
I have since lowered it by 2 inch and changed the wheels to 265/75. But I love it, just turned 93k.

I had a feeling the gearbox may need changing or rebuilding. There was a fair bit of whine at higher speeds. Did ok though and I did change the front bearings but think the gubbins had worn a bit too. Sunroof still leak on the unsuspecting passenger?

Sunroof doesn't leak any more, I sealed it up properly
It did whine a little, but it lost reverse and 5th gear so that's why it was replaced.

Interested to know why you went up then down again with the lift? Or was there a culmination of reasons behind the drop to only a 2" lift?

The 4 inch lift was good for off roading but I use it for towing and on the road a lot so 2 inch with the 265's is a lot easier to drive and use so decided to do it.
