Talk to Tuigod. He has a navara on mudzillas and I think a small lift as well. He does bloody well in it. Came third in the recent Cruiser Club champs, beating quite a few chev powered cruisers. He was beaten by a well set up 70 and a safari (that is to be expected thou, wait till you see blackdeath in action :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol: ) :mrgreen:
