Hi all I had a td5 before and I swapped it for this






She currently running 35/12.50/15 but they that worn they now stand at 33"

I'm thinking when I buy new mud tyres to go for 33" ones does anyone think 33's will look stupid on it ????

Cheers
 
Looks good! How much of a body lift does it have? The rear arch looks huge!

I think 33's will still look fine. Has it had any drivetrain mods to cope with the 35's?
 
Hi all thanks for comments

She has

Terrafirma a springs and shocks 2" lift
Extended turrets 2"lift
Spring blocks 2"lift
Cranked/castor correct front and rear arms
Dislocation cones
Braided extended brake hoses all round
Discovery tdi snorkel
Blanked egr
Steering guard
Tree/rock sliders
Straight through. Exhaust from turbo back (no boxes)
Cb radio
Light bar
Winch bumper
Extended arches
NO BODY LIFT AT ALL

Probs loads I missed

She stands about 7ft 4" at rear roof

Today I had new tyres fitted as others was cracked and perished badly

Here some pics of her new boots

Comments welcome good or bad

Can your rear axle articulate properly without catching?
I have 35s too but they catch like mad, I'm thinking about lifting the body or going for smaller tyres.

It looks good with the coopers! Would be interested to see how they perform when you've had chance to test them out....

Im now running 33s on mine with a 2in lift and 2in body lift, and it still catches just about but it may have somthing to do with having a couple of bump stops missing! :lol: heres a couple of pics of when i did my body lift,
