Got a 2" lift
2.5" body lift
6 degree front and rear arms
Wide angle props- possibly going to double carbon props at some point in the future.

Will be looking at fitting 40x13.50r17 tyres in the future (this truck is a project that I'm doing over time)

I know there's alot of cutting and work to do to make these fit. Just curious on the biggest size that some had fit on a D1

You see 33 35 & the odd 37s but haven't seen much of 40s.

Go big or go home lol

Your biggest obstacle will be offset rims that would give you enough clearance so that your turning circle wasn't a replica of the Titanic lol then you have to think about diff ratios, 35" benefit from at least a 4.1 but best with a 4.37 R&P set.

I'm going up to 33" from 31" and I'm still looking at a 4.1 ratio swap to get the gearing back to normal.

I'm looking at a td5 Transfer box that should work.
Also -35 offset wheels if I can find the right ones and then adjust the steering and possible spacers.

I know a mates got 37x14.50r16 on 12j beadlocks so might borrow them from his v8 rock crawler.
Arches etc are stock at the min as it's still sat on 235 tyres (no point blowing plenty of cash on tyres to get buggered while it's sat)
