That looks very similar to mine! How much have you extended the wheelbase by? Also have you thought about cutting the rest of the rear guard off? ie the bit that sticks outbehind the door. I did and am very happy as it is the bit most likely to get collected by a tree.

I have extended the wheelbase to 105" using an a-frame set up, Im going for an exo cage so there will be a bar down buy the rest of the guard so it shouldnt get collected by a tree. It will stop a bit of mud spraying up into the cab to as im going to have a set of half door for it aswell. I bought the rear tray set-up origingally from annother comp truck in NZ and modified it to fit mine.

Ill be running 37" claws which measure 36.4" so they fit within the the comp rules.

Got a pic of yours nzdarin?

The sand shot is on a dune around camp 9 on the Madigan line afew days ago.

The shocks with 50mm hydo bump stop, 10" front stroke, and 14' rear stroke are $1495 ea and the install kit, depending on what you need is $1650 + fitting.

Well, we use it to develop and test, and touring for us can be treating the vehicle hard, like sitting on 150-160kph in the dirt etc, heading around, as well as being a muli purpose 4wd vehicle, and displaying what we do.

Once you have had them, theres no going back to 'ordinary" shocks ;)

Its on the hoist today, while we fiddle with neg camber settings, before we fit some new tyres and rims.
