Take the gaters off the shockers mate, they just hold the mud in so they are better off without.

yeh mate, without lift.... bfg mud terrains cos a small fortune 95 quid each but apparently last a loooong time.

Tonight i went back to a muddy slope, i went there last week in the jimny when it had the standard wheels and road tyres on. It started off on the slope and got about 5 foot then just spun and spun.... went no where really....

Tonight, with the bf goodrich fitted, straight to the top without even hardly loosing traction, i was wellll impressed!

i'l see if i can sort the video out.

Oh and pic didnt work lol
