235s on 15x8s

If anyone wants to swap some clean 15x7s alloy or steel I'll be more the willing to cooperate ;)

This should keep the banks and ruts off my car ;)

Stock guards, need to flex and check it out before I go wheeling, the previous owner chopped up the tread...

I bought them 2nd hand, and yeah, a 9.5" tyre on an 8" rim..... That's a mad idea :? It just grabs the bottom of the bumper at the front.... Just a tiny bit trimming I think....

Are these from a guy called mitchell at newy?
If they are, one of them has a massive cut on the inside where the tread and side wall met. Might be worth checking out incase its really deep.

hey watching ur post and that crazy flex with one of the bolts out made me think bout it

I now this is crazy but wht bout "trying" to design some custom arms like the "super flex" arms of superior engineering does..... it would work pretty much like if u removed the front bolt out

Image


prob is too crazy or complicated to do, but hey if ya want a challenge why not :wink: :crazy: :lol:

would be cool if someone could design them but having a patent is a no-go thing for others....... but hey u could try to email them asking if they could design some for jimnys, showing the interest here and our shit flex and the one it can be achieve :P ...... who knows.... but well probs would be too expensive for us tight arses zooks owners lol :helloo:


and if ya think is gonna mess with the draglink, they already though bout it for the landcruisers

X-link?

3link + p is a good compromise I think.

X-links might work a heap better with heavier cars as there is still 3bushes per arm to flex through....


good post bert, if TSOR are keen to build something like that then sure, that would be cool, but for a one off fab job, thats allot of work......

i did consider just making one link and replacing the drivers side, but i kinda thought that would throw the whole car out and roll the diff around when in travel.....

maybe u could just buy a couple of JB arms, grab one, cut the front part and re-welded into the new position to make some kind of "Y" so u could still use the same material and bushes.... u only need to design the caster plate :wink: :P .... and well find the way to clear the draglink tho :crazy: :helloo:
