I've got annoyed with mine.

Nicely done

#791 by bart , Tue Dec 02, 2014 10:38 pm

Finaly fitted the de-cat pipe that has been sitting in the shed for 5 month ! What a complete barsteward to get the cat off took hammers grinder cutting torch more bigger hammers and loads of swearing.
Seems a bit better but not sure it was worth all the hassle,hard to tell though as it is literally freezing hear and i have only drove it a short distance.

@JasonK I'd be interested in knowing what they are like when you fit them bud, any rubbing, any other mods needed, etc etc

#793 by JasonK , Wed Dec 03, 2014 8:39 am

No probs mate, will get pics up at the weekend

I did trial fit some 33" from my brothers frontera and they went straight on, only hitting was on the mudflaps when turning so I've removed the mudflaps now, we shall see

#794 by krutly , Wed Dec 03, 2014 8:41 am

what wheels are they on/going on Jason? standard alloys or steels ?
do you run spacers too ?

#795 by JasonK , Wed Dec 03, 2014 11:38 am

Nobody has stock in the ET-35 steels until February time so I'm fitting the tyres to the standard wheels and buying the 38mm spacers from Phil (hound dog)

should give almost the same offset, if it looks good on standard wheels then I'll leave it, if not I'll get the steels in February

Top tip carefully cut the old ones with a Stanley, they come off easy then.

#797 by woody13 , Wed Dec 03, 2014 7:06 pm

Fitted new wheel bearings on drivers side and a s/h caliper after I found mine seized.

#798 by bart , Wed Dec 03, 2014 9:28 pm

Fitted an exhaust bolt that the last owner decided to not bother replacing , the one on the front pipe (i know why he didn't refit it know ) and found another 10 jobs to do while i was under there.....Transfer box mount is non existent, transfer box fill plug was JUST still in the box (bit worrying) and my rear box is probably gonna drop off before the weeks out..............MINT

#799 by 123hotchef , Wed Dec 03, 2014 9:33 pm
