With the size of your garage, I take it you're not in a hurry for a roof rack? lol.

Keep the pics coming.

Take care out there.

How do you find the split rims? I've got them and when the tyres run out of tread, I'll be ditching them. I've had to replace 2 tubes, costing about $50-$55 AUD - each

Hi Rossco,
Yes, height was an issue until I cut the high roof off. Going to put a canvas top on it.. awesome plans with matching amazing pictures on beer coasters when I had some mates around. Wife has since suggested that I should do the rest of my plans with less alcohol involved.
As for the split rims..I got the MQ that had them on off Trademe (Ebay clone here in NZ) for 800ish. Has traveled about 40 mtrs since I've had her. My previous exp with split rims was when I was still serving as they were standard with the 110s. Personally can't stand them myself as they're a pain in the a... to change. Going to flick them off with the hope that someone has the same demented false sense of the "good ole times" as I have with MQ/MKs. lol

Yeah bud, flick those bloody split rims
Gee a set of sunnies 2nd hand shouldnt cost no more than $20-$25 a pop
I use split rims here on the property only because i can run the light truck tyres at 0 pounds air and they dont peel of (or im to lazy to pump them up)either way i have them here only for that

Just had a brainwave MQ, may see if the NZ army want them for their series 3 Landrovers LOL

Oh, forgot to add that the silver while has got wides, and a set of extra wides. so will be using them.
No such thing as 2nd hand sunnies here in NZ, actually, no such thing as 2nd 4x4 tyres..when they get replaced they're knackered as
