I am very new to this website and forum. I have reviewed many threads and y'all do some awesome things to your land cruisers. I would love some input/opinions on the best way to convert my 1998 Land Cruiser 100 to a bad ass arctic truck.
Recently I took my family to Iceland and we were amazed by the tricked out custom arctic trucks. So much so that I bought a Land Cruiser to make my own arctic truck. I would however like to avoid putting 30-40k into this project. Please let me know what suggestions you might have to complete this dream but not to go broke doing it. I've met with a great fabricator guy and I think the best way is to minimize the about of wheel well customization. I would rather build the wheels out then in but what are the biggest tires and rim combinations that I could fit? I am willing to do some fabrication but the Icelandic arctic trucks are insanely modified. This vehicle will be used to road travel about 50% of the time and off road 50%. Please feel free to comment of any and all modifications (guards, bumpers, wenches, lights, snorkels, etc.) that you would suggest ans specifics would help immensely.
THANK YOU in advance for your input!
