Have a look at Nitto (mud grapplers), they are grippier than the treps in most cases but much longer wearing. We have been running them on comp trucks for a while and have been really surprised by their lifespan.

Seen that they are getting a reasonable wrap around the place and they do have some pretty darn aggressive tread patterns but have not had the pleasure (or need as yet) to try them.

Put a new swivel hub kit, new wheel bearings and new rotors through the front today. Been working on the house so it's slow going. Hoping to have the lower control arm frame mounts welded in next weekend and i can swing the diff under the front. Bit by bit!

Little more progress tonight...

Made a tie rod from 1.5" OD chromoly with 3/16" (4.7mm) wall and Synergy Performance chromoly TRE's.

Also chased the alloy lower control arm threads and assembled 2 ready for th front diff. Got a coat of paint on them after the pic was taken but I'm not sure how long the paint with hold up. Anyone got an aluminium paint/process they'd recommend?
