How about 65mm on ebay?

Looks like he's got a bit of a camber problem too. Then again, you cant expect wheelbearings and kingpin bearings to last any more than 20 minutes with those ridiculous tyres.
Such a ridiculous setup on that vehicle, thing looks like it would roll over if you looked at it the wrong way. The owner must have a microscopically small cock.
Jeep Wrangler flares work well. We grafted them onto a 4Runner once.

And you don't upgrade your Toyota internals?
Why then does everyone talk of fitting Trail Gear and Longfield CV's etc?

Thanks Mattman. Nearly done plumbing up the fuel pump and tank and hoping to test it this weekend. Quite happy to own some thing a bit rare in NZ although the Discos are a dim a dozen.
