Mashallah lovely looking truck that is.

You can get spacers made locally I am sure. Go to any machine shop and have them make you 5mm aluminum spacers. Thats what I did.

Btw I emailed the Kuwaiti BFG dealer to inquire about tire availability but no reply. Is there a contact person you have who can help?

Hello,

Thank you, I ordered Hi Lift mount for my front bumper 1-2mm and 2-3mm from Amazon. I want to mount my hi lift on the bumper on top like yours.

The spacers is a critical thing for the car, I ordered them from cruiserheads and they are 5 x 150mm 1.5" Wheel Spacers .

BFG dealer is Michelin and their number is 24828291 ask for Saleem or Kumar.

Dont forget to dial +965 before you call

What is the purpose of clear bra???

What is the purpose of clear bra???

In the middle east when you go offroading or get stuck in a shamal - its like having the car sand blasted. So it gives you protection without being notices. Another popular but short-term solution is to spray the front with a type of protective mud.

 

[Ristretto]

^ Correct

Similar to the common black leather bra but its a see-through film. Purpose is to protect paint from sand, snow etc

Ristretto, any engine performance mods soon?

 

[Ristretto]

Keeping it stock?

What do you suggest ?

Some pictures from today along with my G55 AMG

Installed tow hitch and windsheild protection film today,

Nice! I know your G55 is set-up more for road use but I've been curious to see how a similarly equipped G-wagen would compare to a 79 off-road.

G55 has live axles, 3 diff locks and low range.

Looking good.

Question: Did the rear shock from OME come with the shock bushing, or you used the old stock bushing? I've got a set of OME shocks I want to put on but cant find the rubber bushings
