Nice rig Thoma, I also like the skinny tire look.
Speaking of fender flares, can you get them where you live? If so, there are a lot of us interested. Any information would be helpful.

Phil post some more pics of your diesel shorty. I want to see more pizza cutters and that sweet bumper.

I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

skinny tires dont just look good....they work good.
I have the stock size. When I wear them down, I will probably get smaller ones if the price is a concern. What we used to call "snow tires". whatever will fit the aluminum rims

fender flares? what other vehicle has a similar shaped fender ? ...not a retorical question, I really dont know. I would look at old cars too, dont limit your search to only trucks. alot of aftermarket body crap on old nissans and such

Getting the Wheeling Fever
Thanks alot guys.
All the positive feedback is helpful when working on the Pajero. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
But the list of things to do is long.
Have couple of rust spots to take care of..


Realy like the pizzacutters. I think they will work great offroad.

About the fender flares i think there are 3 places to get them.

A finnish company have for both SWB and LWB.

Finnish fender flares



A lot of guys have ordered them from Iceland.
Bit expencive but great fender flares in fiberglass.

(press the myndir button for pictures)


There are also a Norwegian company that sells them.
Don't know where their fender flares are from.
Thats the one i had before the crash.
Still have 3 left. But they only sell them i a whole set of 4 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />
