Het die canopy af gehaal, lyk baie beter nou.
Ek sien die patrol bakkies kom uit met so wit reling op die bak(by kajuit), weet nie of mens dit regtig n rollbar kan noem nie.
Iemand het nie miskien so een wat le en niks doen nie...ek sal vir hom n huis gee.

Hy lyk baie goed en as jy met hom wil gaan kamp kan jy die canopy modify soos wat ek met my Safari gedoen het.

Ek het my vrieskas, kombuis en die bed in die binnekant en kan loop binne die canopy.

Fanus, julle het sulke lekker offroad paaie daar, so kyk of jy nie vir ons 'n outing kan reel nie sodra dit weer bietjie warmer word. Daar is genoeg kampplekke en vir 'n naweek kan ons hier van Gauteng af 'n plan maak, net 360km.

When making a sharp turn, the inside of front wheels rub on body of vehicle... eg when turning right, inside of right wheel rubs.
This is on the 255/85r16's (33").

Interrestingly the 265/70r16's that was on the vehicle did not rub. So the wheel diameter is causing the rubbing and not the width?

What would be the best way to solve this? wheel spacers? Would not realy want to put bigger that 1cm spacers on the front though.

Hey mate,

Just adjust the limiter nut on the steering knuckle assembly,... it will stop the wheel from turning to such extremes.

How difficult is it to adjust this? What does it look like?
excuse my lack of knowledge, I did try to find more info on google, but was not successful.
