Threw on some 285's, didn't cut crash bars and have good static clearance (including full lock). Used 20mm spacers just on the front. Will cut the bars before going to the mtns again, cuz it's closer than you'd want on real trails. Used RC 2.5" leveling kit.

DISCLAIMER ON LEVELING KITS:
Guys, if it's the puck leveling kit style that goes on top of the strut crown, don't bother taking the bottom studs out. You just need to take the axle nut off, remove the brakes (not the line, just the disk and caliper...), and pop it away from the CV. Now go to town shoving that thing in there after. If you don't have an air hammer this is the way, if you do then nevermind.


I got a GFB DV+ diverter valve off aliexpress, which happens to be a genuine part, was pretty surprised when it showed up in the Australian GFB box. Got it incase i want to push some more boost later on. Can attach a link

Terrain Management switch installed, just pull on the old one to pop the console and you'll get it(unplug it before pulling all the way...) Turn on selectable drive and terrain management in forescan.

Sealight amber fogs are pretty good, not sure why I would want fogs the same color as my headlights in fog and snow...

Absolutely hate how these shift so I probly need to tune it finally

I like those spacers, I would have gone that route had i seen them way back. I'm right there with you on the transmission shifts. Shocks all around made a huge difference. My second biggest complaint is the rear leaf springs.

looks like you have a lot of room with the 285s. i have 265 and the side wall is so close to the knuckle and crash bars...
