So far then

Offroad Tyres - Check
Snorkel - Check
Wading kit - Check
CB - Check
Light Bar - Check

Been looking out for a bullbar on ebay but they all seem to be in bloody Yorkshire :D There is an A-Bar a bit more local on there at the moment so might settle for that for now until a bullbar shows up. Then just need some spots for the front and get my Decals ordered :D

Then its a case of waiting for the rain so I can go get muddy :cool:
 
Well its changed a bit more and now looks like this

Looking good matey, i picked up my bull bars last week from the scrap yard. I see another home made snorkle lol. Need to get my truck on its way now mods wise. Keep up the good work thou
 
Actually alloy wheel nuts on steel wheels int a prob. Apart from looking ****e. Because they fit the domed section correctly. Tis steel wheel nuts on Alloys that is a no no.

Full set of wheel nuts for 4 steel wheels is only about £6 off egay..

Dunno why cos they is a proper fit they just stick out too far. :confused:

Can only assume he didn't tighten em up properly. or the studs were too long for the nuts. The nuts on mine have got holes all the way thru.

too many peeps jumping to conclusions and playing sheep. the end of nut is domed and as long as the stud isn't too long to prevent the nut from tightening down onto the wheel. There isn't gonna be a problem.
