don't people ever do a search before asking questions

if you look about 10 posts down from here there is a 10 page thread about a Suzuki with what you are asking by mickbj42 so maybe have a read thru that or maybe look at Sam (overkills) suzuki buggy (I know 37s but he ran bigger at 'Pecker)

what engine is it running mate? it looks like it has an air intake on the bonet :cool:

You could also have a look around for Jamie (fourwheelin) - he is running 38" swampers on his sierra too i think - there are pics of it in the woodpecker thread in general chit chat area.

to pay some one to do what they have you are looking at much moola. What do you want to use it for? How much can you do yourself?

Tyres will run around the $2000 alone
Then hilux diffs $500
Then lockers at least ARB in front $1500
Then t/case gears $1300 for a Series 3
Then wheels $ 250

Then labour say $3000

What about engineers report are you going to try and get it registered if so I doubt you will be able to with 38s

Why 38", why not go bigger :?:

For that matter, why a zook?

Competition or paddock basher?

What do you really want to achieve?

curious......

what you plan on doing with it then, there are very little places you can drive it unregged, and you need rego for comps
seems to be alot of $$ just for a home paddock basher

Does the bonnet scoop have a lil' Subaru logo embossed into it? Looks very similar to the old "use the Subaru sportswagon map pocket off the door as an undersized WRX/Forester GT bonnet scoop trick" to me.
