To fit the lager diameter wheels, have you cut the guards, or pushed the axle forward aswell to clear the wheel arch?

Yeah the guards has been cut, but for 46" I´ll have to move the front axle at least 5cm forward. And the rear axle back about 10cm. You also gain better weight distribution by moving the axles from each other. Which is better in snow driving. It also gives the rig a better handling.

where do you get them big flare's you all are running on the patrols over there?

Looks awesome the country well is white lol
Great the way you guys set up your Patrols
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
Yep. They are custom made with fiber glass. There are a few companys here in Iceland that are making flares. And they wil for every type og car. These flares I´ve got are so called little 44" flares. Theyr work good with the 38" tires but the are not Wide enough for 44" tires. But that also depends on how wide the rim is. I´m using 12" wide rims now. But they aren´t enough So I have 15,5" wide rims that I´m going to sandblast and paint for the 38´s. My future plan is to modify rims for the 44" tires. But I can´t decide if I´m going to have them 18" or 20" wide.

Nice ride! It would be great if we could get away with running 46" tyres here in Aus.
As I can see, 3" lift in Island, it is not lift at all LOL yah?
