Welcome to the Mickey T club They looks tops mate I'd like to know what you think of these tyres over the coming months as I nearly bought them over the MTZ

I do see one problem though - that Triton is tooooo clean

[Dylan 191]

yeah i got them over the mtz because i think i do too much road driving and would of worn out the mtz too quick , they are still pretty agressive tread pattern so should do well offroad
gota get sum dirt on them i know

[Buzzy]

I was the same as subi, a bee's d!ck away from getting these instead of my MTZ.
They look the goods Dylan

[Greedy]

Good work Dylan. Look forward to hearing how they perform.

[Dylan 191]

thanks for the coments guys , will keep informed on how they perform
hopefully get to try em out in the dirt soon , think they will be great in everything apart from heavy mud

[Dylan 191]

just a minor thing but it gets me when the kids put there dirty feet on the back of the seats as the factory neoprene covers dont have a back , so got some foam backed material and made a template then just tucked it under where the seats join and under the neoprene covers
worked out ok and no more mud on the seats

[Dylan 191]

had the gps in the car yesterday and with the bigger tyres the speedo is spot on now , havnt really done any serious offroad but found sum soft sand tracks near home and they ate it up , didnt air down but was in 4h , glided through no worries and the extra ground clearance is awsome , feels like it can go anywhere , now where did i leave that money for a lift ?

[tookie]

dylan you should buy a v8 landcruser fire truck they go any were
tookie

[Dylan 191]

havnt been held back in the triton yet buddy
these are great 4bys

[Dylan 191]

hey guys out there who have sliders or side steps that bolt onto the chassis
how do they work with the brake lines and stuff that are on there
do the mounting plates go under them ?

[Dylan 191]

hey guys just after some advice , saving up my hard earnd and not sure wich to do first , bar on the front or lift kit ?
With lift kit i guess i need constant load on the front for the bar but might be a while till can afford another mod so would it be too harsh on the front without it there
With the bar would stock suspension sag too much with it on ? ?
Hope that made sence , advice appreciated

[rick]

lift kit mate......iron man constant load front and rear .......tyre save at clarkson ask for simon and say concrete rick sent ya.

[Dylan 191]

did the iron man kit give u 60 mm rick ?
Wont the constant load springs be too harsh without a bar on ?

[trouble]

Wont the constant load springs be too harsh without a bar on ?

just leave the front springs out till you get the bar and winch........just a thought.

[rick]

not at all harsh mate,ive only got a shitty alloy mits thing upfront, weighs about 3 ounces yes mate i got at least 65mm.

[Dylan 191]

ok so now the bike is sold i ordered a 2" kit from martin at dobinsons today , great help from him and good price compared to the overpriced rep in wa
Thanks to the guys who pointed me in the right direction

[Greedy]

Good work Dylan. You won't be disappointed.

[Dylan 191]

i will when i cant drive it because of my licence

cheerzs mate hope is all good

[Wallace]

What kit did you order from Martin? Constant load I hope. Just make sure the front springs are C43-190. Martin also provides caster wedges and tailshaft spacer. Over all a bloody good company to deal with

yeah constant load on the front ,c43-190 , medium on the rear as i dont carry weight everyday and martin was saying if no weight everyday the constant load on the back would be too harsh and limit suspension movement
