should swap the tyres and rims/offset for compatible ones for your rig so you have 2 spares. thats what ive done touch wood not needed em yet!.
100% need to do that. Mudrunner noticed that too when he saw it. I have almost rolled the camper on some steep bumpy climbs. I have a full set of Desert Duelers that will go on nicely.
can you do an axle leaf swap over for more clearance?. looks like you have independent with stub axles not sure if you will be able to with that set up from the pics.
Funny you say that. I checked it last night for that and It's a no go...
However, now that the water tank is gone and there is no axle so to speak the clearance is not far off the Patrol....Worse case scenario I don't mind dragging it through if I have to...lol
yea im the other way around my camper has more clearance then my gu it sucks.
wont you be putting a water tank back under there?
I'm not sure what to do now. That water tank was good, held a lot of water but it sat way too low. Most of my trips are only 5 days at most so 2 x 25 litre jerry cans of water and a few 2 litre bottles is normally more than enough as most of our destinations have clean rivers but if I was going to get back into long touring again I would need to consider putting another tank back in.
I was about to cut the frame off underneath that held the tank in place but I might just leave it for a while.
I'm also planning on making a slide out kitchen from the left hand side of the door. We never use the facilities inside, always just cook on the fire or portable gas stove so the kitchen sink inside is pretty useless for us. A slide out kitchen sink, bench and cupboards would be handy!
