    Damm bolts are still traveling , 38mm a side should beef up the rear end a little.

    Fat mud tyres are on the list.
    Had to trim 10mm off as I couldn't find long enough bolts. These will end up on the front but for a stop gap they are on the rear.

    Nice solution to the problem. So maybe 100mm would have been the right length.

    I mean, you not being familiar with long lugs and all, I can see how you made such a mistake!

    80mm would have been spot on try and find bolts that long , but in the end everything has worked in my favor. cough 2" cough.
