Nah, Mrs said last month "what was the point of working out here and not spending any of the money on me. So I may have gone a little bit mad for 2 months!

Was about time I made some changes to the truck as well, getting the winch bumper has kick started the "Mod month".

Aren't wives brilliant!

Mine got a missed delivery yesterday so rearranged and stayed in all day to get the new wheels, new tyres, snorkel, egr blanking plates, wheel spacers and a few other bits.

Where did she put all this........................? In the back of the living room and then called me to complain about the stink of the new tyres! Bless her!

She did say however that the tyres are Fu*king huge and the new wheels looked sexy!

Only another 6-7 weeks until home and get to play

Dave, I offered to test fit his winch bumper for him too ....... there's just no pleasing some people eh ?
sounds like you're going to be a tad busy when you get home Ed ?
in my opinion new tyres smell awesome ...... if they made an aftershave that smells like that ........ I'd buy it

Winch to be installed in the bumper
New spot and fog lights to be fitted, now ordered
CB aerial to be re sited to the bumper
New shackles fitted to the rear
Re fit the decat pipe
Blank the EGR, now bought and sat at home

Fit new alloys and wheels, 16" Spyker alloys and 285x75x16 Muds.

Yep! Do the bathroom for the Mrs during the day and play on the truck all night.

She is going to hate it when I get around to telling her that the truck will be higher than now!

Best carry a box for her to use to get in the truck.

Find her a pop down Disco rear step for her side, problem solved, or you could always swap her for a 6 footer....

I wouldn't swap her for the world, she let me go and buy 2 new guns!

Truck has already got a 2" lift.

With putting the new wheels and tyres on, combined with torsion bar adjustmen for winch bumper and new extnded shackles on the rear, I should gain 2-4" extra height!

New tyres alone are 4" increase in diameter so I'll gain 2" ground clearance.

Back for 3 weeks on the 5th Sept.!

Well, back home from Afghan to find the house full of truck bits!

New tyres are huge and the wheels look even better in real life than they do on the web.

New 8" spots are also better as its says DLAA across the front and not OLAA.

Anyone got a 86mm hole cutter I can borrow!

Photo's will be posted shortly of all the bits in the flesh.
