Fudge me they're some big ol' tyres, can I fit these on mine as standard or do I need to do some cutting?

Those are huge! Are you going to need to make anymore clearance for them?

Re: Mikes lwb build and repairs !
Morning all,
So all four tyres are now on, sorted the running problem was a dodgy rotor arm and dizzy cap, changed the plugs whilst I was in there too.
Next up on the list is start trimming, cut all the old leaf spring mounts off and beaten all that side of it up, then trim the sill and the end of the rock sliders, 24 bolting the winches is high on my list but funds will have to be raised first !
Let me know what you guys think

Re: Mikes lwb build and repairs !
Ive got to start to regroup my spares package as well, doing events I'm now wanting to take stuff with me in case it breaks as I now travel so far.
Starter motor, alternator, nose of transfer box, radiator, fan, brake pads, wheel bearings, front shafts, rear shafts, winch solinoids, winch rope is about all I take with me at the moment.
I'd like to build a diff I can use in the front or rear in case it goes, would just be an open rear diff to get me out of trouble, nothing fancy.

The whole truck looks crazy big now. Like the proportions all look much bigger. Will be handy having a emergency diff in the spares box to.
