Well the day has finally arrived :mrgreen:

3" Bilstein susp kit and 33x12.5R17 MTZs have been sitting at http://www.fourbys.com.au for a while now, was just waiting on the 17x9 Moto Metal wheels to come in.

They finally arrived last week, and cleared customs yesterday, so it'll all be getting fitted this arve! Can't wait! 8-)

Yeh mate, make sure you stop along the way home to take some pics and load em up as soon as you finish test driving your rig.

I seem to remember doing that when I put the Crushers on for you fellas but Twisty, you knew about em before hand 'cos Ryano took some pics while my truck was still in the workshop and emailed em to you before I had left Fourby's. :!:

Twisty, should look tough when completed....what offset are your 17x9's that your fitting?

and if possible, some clearance pics of the wheels turned at their closest to that bodymount for comparisons sake.

cheers mate.....

I was there when this was fitted this arvo and all I will say is it looks DAMN SEXY.

Max Ryano worked his magic and there appears to be no fouling it actually had a heap of room and again DAMN it looked awesome.

Alrighty...some pics of all the new gear! (only got phone pics at the moment) Am absolutely stoked with everything! Drives and rides awesome, and so far, no scrubbing!

Ryano got the suspension kit through Cal Offroad, its the 3" bilstein kit at the top of the page on the link below. Also got the diff drop kit at the bottom of the page.

On the ground after the lift was installed....did a quick measure on the front came up 120mm and the rear up 100mm. Obvisouly, this will sag back down to a 3" lift.

The rim and tyre combo. 17x9 Moto Metal MO955's with a -12mm offset & 33x12.5 Mickey Thomson MTZs.

Also got to give a massive thanks to Ryano at www.fourbys.com.au for sorting it allImage

and to Boof, for doing the peak hour traffic run to Yatala and back to pick up the rims when they didn't make it onto the courier run. Image

Cheers fellas ;)

Looks fantsatic mate.

Mmaaxx, you can take down your picher now!

When you get your good camera out mate, could you post a pic of those tyres straight on. It is hard to se how afr athey hang out.

It just goes to show the benefit of the combined experience of you, Ryano and the collective wisdom of this forum. It is amazing what you can do when you follow a master plan from the day you take delivery. The annoying thing is that 18 months ago when I bought the exact same rig (you gotta love that grey!) the knowledge was just not there.... and Ryano waved his magic wand on my rig 24 hours after I bought it (in a much milder way...)
