Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set.

You talking about going full hydraulic or hydro assist? And is it going to be street legal?

Full hydro will not get certed for "Road Legal"....

As there has to be a direct connection between the steering wheel and wheels. Or something like that.
In case of hydraulic failure. Now I know there are some road legal diggers,tractors and forklifts with full hydro...
But they are not "normal" road going vehicles and require extra additions on your drivers licence.

Give me an email on c-bond@vodafone.net.nz
I stock a few item of Trail-Gear stuff and get good discount across the range from my US supplier. I run TG stuff on my truck and its really good. I have a full kit instock...

Just make sure your aware its going to cost you well more than $1k to set up. my full hydro 4 wheel steer owes me over $2k, the plumbing cost $550 for parts alone.
Dont follow me. i'll get stuck and need a tow..
