Hello. My name is Hagalín and I come from Iceland.
You will forgive my translation into English, it can fail sometimes.

I have 2001 Y61 Nissan and is modified for 44" SuperSwamper.
For next winter he will get 46" MT 46x19.5 R16


He has airsprings front and rear, with controls in the car and auto mode too.
He has a locking front and rear ARB locking.
VHF radio, GPS, 50 liters extra tank.
EGT, and boost gauge for autotransmisson.

I travel a lot in the mountains here in Iceland and the country's glaciers.

Here are some pictures of the car and I hope you will enjoy.

I just fitted 285/75 r16 to my 03 y61,,,,,, i am now suffering a bad case of tyre envy and wondering how much of a lift i would need to go up to 46 inch tyres and how big a chip to give the 3.0lt enough unmph to turn them LOLOL
