check out his SHED, from memory it has all the spec's, and be sure to vote ........ if only you could give it 12 out of 10.....i had to settle for 10/10.
worth every point.:D

[Emms4runner]

This surf has also been featured in 4wd monthly bout a year ago, it was tittled "Flex baby flex" i think.

Had 33" Wranglers though back then.

OZ's best surf without a doubt!:thumb:

[crack]

thats insane mate! those recaros u got in there i saw in ya other thread. are they standard or aftermarket? if aftermarket where di ya get em from and what sorta price?

cheers

[60cruza]

mate, excellent job, flames add a nice touch. buy the missus a step ladder coz you have to keep the wheels.

[Toy Smurf]

Very nice set up. Can you post some off road pics?

thanks Sim, Unfortunatly the 38's don't get to see alot of use as I mostly just use these for charity events and the occasional 4wd show.

I have thought about using them as my permanent off road tyre however don't think the drive train would be up to the challenge... would probably have to do some extensive guard work aswell to make them clear on articulation..

If you go to the link below you'll see some good off road pics with my other tyres though.:thumb:

Thanks mate!!
Ps. If your bros still interested they'll be back up on ebay in a couple of days.. guy who won the auction thought he had a big lift. Until he saw mine.:D

[Toy Smurf]

Recently got the front locker put in. Next plans are to find a way to fit reduction gears..?? Unfortunatly Surf boxes are chain driven and will probably need a complete new box and transfer case out of a Hilux:crazy:

Thanks crack, yeah the recaro's came standard in the SSRG model surfs, along with in dash GPS, TV, CD and MP3. Not bad for a 94 release date..:thumb:

[Steggz]

[Mulisha_Troop]

i looked around your shed for specs, u gotta have more than 4 inches lift it looks huge i have 6 inches on my lux man.

[Toy Smurf]

Yeah I should probably update specs...:crazy: not really sure how much lift it is all up as we just lifted it enough to fit the front diff while still trying to keep it as low as possible. Could be more like 5-6 inches..?? not sure although I also have a 2inch body lift...

[88_Patrol]

nice rig!! you were trying to sell these tyres on ebay yes/no

i though i saw this car on show at places

[boof]

Love this rig shame about the 38s but its still a sweet ride without them :thumb:

[Toy Smurf]

Yeah, however the winning bidder had a 4" lifted GU patrol which they still didn't fit...

Will be putting them back up on ebay later this week. :(

Thanks boof. yeah it's a shame about the 38's :(

Well done on the 4WD Action DVD. Truck looks awesome and goes great. Still wish you guys lived closer to home though. Would luv to go wheelin with ya's

[Mulisha_Troop]

yeah dude with the 38s on it looks insane, makes me wnna chuck 38s on mine now lol but i would def need the lexus in her to turn em. one of the best surfs man, there is a guy local to me who has the same deal but has sas coil front sits bout as high as mine so im guessing 5-6 inches lift with a v8 an 35s. But the 38s just take it to a hole new dimansion a frikken coolness

[Toy Smurf]

Thanks Malua, Yeah I'm gonna miss the 38s look great and turns truck loads of heads, Unfortunatly Have put them back up on ebay.. and thinking of going for a set of 36" simex or swamper.. A bit more concervative and wont have to keep changing tyres every time I want to head off road. :(

Have ya thought about running Dual Transfers? Gotta a couple of mates running 38's with Duals and crawler gears in there surfs and they work Bloody brilliantly.
