How about 65mm on ebay?

EDIT: Actually those RVTEK ones look the go, you can even get side mounted ones.

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?

The photo of the Orange Turkish Disco 2 has Extended Defender flares.
75mm flares I have on mine from Flatdog http://www.flatdoguk.com/Flexi-Arches-Land-Rover.asp
LRA Australia http://www.lrautomotive.com.au/ are making 100mm flares but as far as i know they are fibreglass not plastic. They may not have them available yet but they are in process of making them.

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.
