Some specks...To make the tires fit, the back axle is moved back about 12,5 cm
And the same is done to the chassie brackets in front(my English sucks) The body are lifted 8cm and the springs 4cm. brake disks are "cutted"..turned?? down to make place for 15'' rims, and the brake calipter are modified...The reason why I want so small rims innstead for 16'' or 17'' is to make the tire to weld out properly... *please point out my wrong spelling so I can learn this*....lol Regards Morten Holm |

Welcome.
Cool pictures. Most of us don't know how to spel either.  What part of Norway are you from? You like the smaller rims so you can air down more? __________________ Kevin 1982 FJ60 Northern California SF Bay Area TLCA/PMC Member "He who throws mud only loses ground." |

I new arctic had a shop in Norway, which would suit us to buy from, as we have access to sea freight from Norway to Australia.

 If you can't carry a spare on the door (and I recon it won't fit in the back) what do you do when you get a flat tyre .  |
