Howdy there Tyres are an interesting topic but my recommendations are First of all you need to decide what tyre you want - All terrain, mud etc, I would only recommend the Mud tyre (or M/T's as they are referred to) as this way you will have the best tyre regardless of conditions (dry/wet etc) Then ...

You can adjust the steering lock (cant remember the proper name for it :? ) on the balljoint (where the kingpins etc are)
It is in the factory manual.

I would assume it is on a Suzuki?? I had the same problem but never failed a WOF :shock: There are possibly a couple of things to do 1. Backspace the rim so the rim moves further out (but that may stick the outside edge of the tyre outside the guards, which will also fail your WOF 2. Put on some roa...

I have one on my Pajero, it is pretty good.
I had to modify it a little for it to fit (remove a washer reservoir) and I heated it up to better fit the pillar :)

The drainpipe idea works ok, only problem is they are very easy to break :shock:
First branch you knock will smash it.
Better idea is exhaust tube, still relativley cheap to make
Best idea is to get a proper snorkel :wink:

Hi there

A word of warning about your Pajero

Dont speed thru too many deep puddles, creeks, rivers etc as the air intake is very low and they have a habit of sucking in a bit of water :(

Be careful!
Cheap insurance is a snorkel :)

I used to fold it up unless it was being used.
I used a tie down to go from the var at the top (when folded up) down to the bracket of the front seat. Worked great.
