Especially in the Pilbara. You will be dropping your pumpkin 1" closer to the big boulders so it will be destroyed. You could always swap diff gears to give you a bit more poke.


Looks like that 4" lift has pulled the rear wheel forward a visible amount, need adjustable arms now.

Thats a massive difference mate, she looks awesome. Are the extreme shock uncomfortable? Or just a little firmer than you thought they would be?

Shane,

Just sounds like you need a turbo, or if you already have one you need a bigger turbo :lol: I say leave the big tyres, and the money you save by not buying new smaller ones you can make some more killerwasps! :D
No turbo for me, and most likely wont end up with a turbo on my 1hz. I'd be more inclined to drop in a 1hd-t or 1hd-fte

Yeah defiantly made a big difference height wise. Shocks are fine on the road, even without swaybars vehicle still holds the road very well, which is helped by the stiffness of the shocks. If you load the shocks up a bit they are fine on road and ride very smoothly. More importantly they perform amazingly off road, and that's what everyone is after on here right? :)

Cheers
Luke
