Indeed, way too expensive to repair! I need an older offroad toy myself. :P

it is 90 acres matty. but apparently not slippery or clean enough to have much fun. too many car bits floating around. i was keen to go the other day, but maybe we should go to that paddock mud pit up north next time it rains.

What sort of tyres are they you are using? I was having a look on the Kumho site to see which ones you got and I can't find that size or 29" tyres there any where.

D3V1L · Post by **D3V1L** » Sat Apr 05, 2008 10:53 am

they actually not 29" tyres...there a little smaller. matt made a mistake when making my signature picture

they only 27.9" total

ill try finding a link to the site. they not a common tyre and had to have them ordered in from the last time i got them on my black wagon

dave

**edit: cant find a listing on the net..ill go into the shop and see if they have a catalogue or soething with them

now when u add this.....

and you add a bit of labour and a night of beer u end up with this....

now this is a 2" lift kit im experimenting to see whether i want to go for the 3" strut tops or not...its bloody high with springs and kit so will see if i need that extra inch or not...i doubt it though

over and out!!

I'll have to pull my thumb out, work hard (at uni and the work place for some subi dosh), get some lift and maybe some tyres - i'd rather the lift first...

Keep the pics flowing.

yeh origionally i was gonna get the 3"...but decided on the 2" purely because i didnt know exactly how high it was gonna sit...and later on get the 3" tops if needed..but i dont want the bigger tops now...just decided this is big enough

ps...please matt....signature to say 28" tyres and 2" lift please
