I tried that,but caught badly. I put a picture of my Patrol with the new 33" tires as my laptop background picture, and my wife used my laptop over the weekend to check her emails....
. So the cat's out of the bag...
. But she loves it!!!

I noticed that hardly anyone has mudflaps on their patrols (with the exception of the front ones on Fred's SWB). Is this correct?

Spot on Stefan
They don't last long if you go off road.

I always remove mine to prevent damage, but it's getting to be a bit of a schlep.

I find that if I unscrew some of those screws and bolts too many times, they wear out and the becomes loose anyway....

Yip, I took the rear ones off last year, but I am very surprised that the ones on the front is still on.

Fred, refer to Tjaart: "...

Tjaart: Eina! I assume you put the rocksliders on after the damage?
