geez. took a while for peolpe to read my post. i was starting to get a complex.

its soon to get 33's when i decide whuch ones. and a 4" lift thats waiting in the garage. it'd look silly with standard tyres.

it sure beats the pants off the 2.7 petrol hilux i had.

yeah mate i do live in the hornsby area.
i'd love to put 35's on. but i'm a bit worried about the gearing issues. the 4.2's geared too high as it is. i figured i'd put 33's on, they'll probably last about 18 months or so then if i haven't done so in that time i'll put 35's on and change diff rations.

i'd like to put reduction gears in the transfer case, how much are they worth. bit too much at the moment.

Hey Simple

Nice rig looks very similar to mine even the same tray builder "Tip Top" Have you got any other mods going like power ups or intercooler fans etc... we're trying to get a little patrol ute chat going at the moment under "which ute" theres photo's of mine with a roof tent after i got back from the cape last week...

Cheers Ute Mad

hey simple after seeing your car i do thinck u need the bigger tyres to clear your diffs ;D hey it depends on the money per tyre. just look around your best bets are kumho for cheap then cooper and bfg and then maby for super stuff mickytompsons or something.
