    Looks mighty nice and I like the Pajero too. Maybe you can push some dakars out of the mud hole!
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    It makes all the difference! No, no rubbing even with full articulation, although there is only about 5mm spare! The bigger tyres make the ride better too!

    The guard was done by a guy called 'Shed' - very talented! Here's his website: http://www.piczo.com/PAJERO?g=16013102&cr=5


    I love my Paj - It's been everywhere with me! I've got to put the Warn winch back on the front - looks a bit silly without! Here's a few vids if you're interested!

    One day I shall remove my finger from my butt and ask Shed to to me a front sump guard - he did the one on Lorne's Paj and it was a brilliant piece of work.

    Oh, nice tyres btw...

    Nope, at least 3 of us, I've had 'em for over 2 years in the 275/65-18 size. They have been really good to me; although a bit heavy on the street and a bit stiff on the rocks, I really like them as an all-around M/T...
