    Return of the Pajero

    Hi All,
    I have been inactive for a few years now. I sold my SASd SWB NH paj in 2013 when my wife and i was expecting our first child, as i could bearly fit her camping gear in the back let alone a little boy.
    I ended up with a 85 Rangie. A few years and a few engines later, i decided to upgrade to something more fuel efficient and reliable.
    So here i am just showing of a couple of pics of my NP pajero, with a 2" bilstein lift and some much bigger tyres
    Obviously more mods to come once the bank account rejuvinates lol

          At the moment it does rub on the rear only on articultion where the tyre tucks up into the guard. Ill do a bit more trimming eventually to sort that out.

          If your talking about if it will rub with standard guards, then yes it will. You just have to trim and moddify the inner guard a bit and trim the wheel arch flaress to get them to fit.

                Wow. I would have thought they would rub on full lock?

                  They dont rub on full lock because of 1: Trimming the inner guard and 2: The wheel offset.

                  In most cases, when you upgrade wheels and tyres on a pajero, you would run a 0 offset wheel for flared models and a +20 offset for the base non flared model.

                  If i had the 0 offset wheels it probabaly would have rubbed on the flare full lock
