they should fit being 16 inch though shouldn't they ? and collection only from your neck of the woods will decrease the number of bids too shouldn't it ?
which ones did you buy for truck 1 that didn't fit ?

they were -32 offset! some fit some dont its a lottery! but to be honest it works out cheaper to get the tyres on steels sometimes anyway because they dont charge a fitting fee

#1265 by Heathen , Sun Jul 16, 2017 2:38 pm

Have you checked all the pipes going into the air filter? on the defender TD5 one of them has a plastic grid in it that can get clogged up

#1266 by 123hotchef , Sun Jul 16, 2017 7:12 pm

tested out the navara roof bars with a load of decking they bend just like the chassis do

#1270 by 123hotchef , Mon Jul 24, 2017 8:22 pm

winch bumper mounts have been beefed up a bit today and the winch fitted just need to wire it up and spool on the rope

#1271 by 123hotchef , Mon Jul 24, 2017 8:23 pm

also plumbed up the air horns from the air tank nice and loud

#1272 by 123hotchef , Tue Jul 25, 2017 9:36 pm

wired the winch up with new 50mm2 cable spooled the rope onto it just need to tidy it all up and pre tension the rope then we are good to go

#1273 by 123hotchef , Sun Jul 30, 2017 3:22 pm

fitted the tank guard, pre tensioned the winch rope fitted a kill switch and control switch in the cab er replaced the inner track rods

#1274 by 123hotchef , Sun Sep 03, 2017 6:30 pm

Fitted another inner track rod at KORC
but this weekend I fitted a new steeering idler pics of bent one to follow
I have also taken off the arch flares to assess the rust issue new wings might be on the cards at some point
I also removed the plastic lining in the front wheel arches they seem to hold the crap and speed up the rusting I will remove the rears in the week too.
All the arch flare brackets broke due to rust I will make some new ones from ali most probably

#1275 by Heathen , Sun Sep 03, 2017 8:02 pm

Still in two minds whether to fit my arch flares or not - they do seem to speed up the rust, and I'd have to cut holes to fit them them too. It would also limit the narrower places I can get to in Wales/Cornwall and not sure if I'd fit in the garage back home either... Do you know any aftermarket replacement for the weather strips that go between the flare and the wing? mitsi ones are silly money.
