Presumably this is meant to be a 'Rock Crawler', but where do you find a suitably sized set of boulders in this country? That's quite apart from Tong (Rubi-Tong), Exmoor & 'The Flappits' (Halifax/Haworth)

This is the vehicle I mentioned in 'April 4x4 Magazine' topic & features on my 'WebShots' (under 'My Discovery') as 'Sick Suzuki'

Not too sure of the full specification.
I know wing extensions/eyebrows looks a bit naff, but they're simply to make it road legal & are removed once the site is reached - not too sure what he'd do on a 'by-way' though?

Thats a smart looking SJ, hopefully buying one for the daughter to learn to drive in, but won't be modded like this one.

Axle, they're 35" on 15" rims (I think he said they're 12.50 width)  
They are Goodyear Wrangler M/T's

Does that help?
I believe he got them at a good deal through a friend of his, Patrick, who runs 'Specialist Leisure' over in Warrington.
http://www.specialist-leisure.co.uk/index.htm

Patrick has got a large collection of JEEP's , or he used to have when he lived at Wakefield.
He had a 'SEEP', a Ford prototype, a (very rare) Forward Control, the rest escape me.
The red HUMVEE on the website is his as well. It's a bl**dy awful thing with b*gger all room inside.
