Re: Help please :) 3.5L V6 SWB

I've got a 3.0v6 and it costs a few bob to run in gas, but isn't too bad. get around 10k/litre. Similar to any large petrol 4x4. 3.5s have a factory bodylift (as do 2.8 diesels) so you can run 33inch tyres without mods. 31s fit the 3.0s no sweat. they're a fair price. not necessarily cheap. it's ...

Re: Hi Guys, Please Help, New to 4wd

If you are looking at the Pajero type size as well, you could also add Isuzu MU to the equation. The reason I say this is hat if you are going to be doing some travel (you stated back blocks, adventure type work) the Zuk will do it's best to destroy your body stance. I have had Zuks for nearly 10 ...

Re: Hi Guys, Please Help, New to 4wd

From what Im reading so far, it appears that the Suzuki would be a no brainer. Would I need to do a body lift? or a suspension lift? I want it to look semi staunch, as without a lift and decent tyres the Suzukis look like a mobility scooter.. Thanks for the welcome, and I do appreciate your guys ...
