Thanks mate! Don't worry about your English it's better then some people on here :) the center cross member is slightly modified to give enough clearance when the rear suspension is at full stretch. The car drives so well I am very happy with the mod.

That's awesome! I considered doing this myself but didnt realize what was involedoi. At that price, i think it's worth it! Is take off better now?
I might consider it, when warranty is up!

Nice work there RD

Mine's also black and those grey flares have been bothering me since I bought it a couple of years ago. Did you spray them yourself or did you hand them over to a shop ? Are they just (general) black or did you match the Mitsu code ? (do you have the code handy ?)

Over here (Norway), we're not allowed to tinker too much.... the man has to sign off on everything and we're subject to EU laws as well as our own. Maximum allowed tire size difference is 5%, any sort of lift is forbidden and any and all of the Oz made bumpers/ bars are illegal :cry: Not to mention that 4wd-ing is illegal and subject to anything from AU$3000 fine to jail time if caught :lol: :lol: It's sad. Really, it is.

Tell me about it, which is why we do what we can and painting the flares are ok. I haven't actually cleared it with the government, but reckon I'll be ok :o :lol:

Got my new road tyres in from the states a few weeks ago Coopers ATP 265/75 R18 or 33x10.5R18 and fitted them to some +25 chrome rims I had sitting around. First impression is they are super quiet and have improved the fuel economy dramatically from the muddies.

Don't mind the look either!

Chrome looks so out of place on your Triton, Mitch

Who knows you might think about some grey flares next :roll:

No seriously they look great
