looks great any reason for the 31"s instead of say a 285 or a 315.
Also any problems withe compressor cutting out all the time

reson for the tires.. not thinking.. i put the 31s on with stock hight stood back and went that look good.. did the lift a few weeks later and stood back and went should have gone 33s haha...
as for the compressor no cutting out issues .. i has a issue with the hose i was using it kept melting near the fitting on the compressor from the heat it put out ( 160l p/m ) so i changed to a $$$ bit of very high temp hose from the compressor to my normal 3/8 300psi hose and now i do all 4 tyres from 15psi to 3psi in about 9 and a half mins.. so happy as with it:smiley_thumbs_up:

i don't understand why we gauge our compressors to how long it takes to inflate tyre........lets face it....no ones in that much of a hurry to get back to civilization...i want one that takes 20min,time to have a few last drinks before it's all over

Once your off the beach it is over haha, that extra 20 mins spent waiting for tyres is a extra 20 mins you could have spent on the sand

Get down there if you get the chance, have a play in the Yeagerup dunes and down the beach

[Ryanbaxwar]

Yeah i keep getting told about a 2km sand hill climb ?

I have just the compressor that AVO needs ,it's a 20l/m ARB .
Couldn't work out why it took so long to pump up my 315/75/16 tyre's ,till I got back to cairns n told the bloke at arb
n he says it's only a little jigger . That's why I also have a 150l/m one too .

[Ryanbaxwar]

Little update ..
Finally got around to checking the valve clearance today and yeah they where so far out I'm amazed it was running out of 12 I only didn't have to adjust 1! .. after reading a few threads on this i decided to go for the cold .02 mm gapping and yeah total change in the car.. the idle in park and neutral is a lot better and the idle in d,r,1 and 2 are just leagues better felt like a massage chair before!

Usually when I am re-inflating it is stinking hot so I like it over quick so I chose a 150l p/m one too.
