Grizz, have you off-loaded the Soft A-Bar? If not, and you're keen, do drop me a PM....

I recognise this! I messaged you on FB! Really like the roll cage! Just out of interest what are portal axles? Great truck!

Great build thread. What suspension set-up are you running and how and are you finding the portal axles?

Thanks guys , I'm running a + 2" OME springs and +5" shocks . The portals have been fantastic but I've now sold them .
I built the truck as a off road toy but decided that it's too nice to keep smashing it and damaging it off road . So I've got a full challenge spec 90 to play with . The 110 will be used to tow the 90 on a trailer and tow the camping trailer . Grizz |

I did see the challenge spec 90m in the other thread, it looks pretty serious and up for any challenge.
How does your 110 sit now without the portals, any pictures? are the +5 shocks OME as well or did you go for Terrafirma's. I assume you didn't sell the Hutchinson wheels, the look superb, what spec wheels are they and what size tyre do you get away with the whole setup? |

Are you selling the hutchinsons?
Love the Trepadors, I guess you won't have clearance issues, did you purchase Flatdog extended arches? |

The wheels are going with the portal kit .
I've got a set of terrafirma +50mm arches fitted already. I'm fitting the 37" treps from my 90 as I've got a set of soft compound ones for the 90 |

Great combo the hutchinson and portals, are you tempted to purchase another set or going a different route with the treps?
Please upload some pictures of the new setup when you get a chance, would be great to see how it looks now. |

Won't need the portals hence selling them . The 110 is going to be used as a tow vehicle with the odd day green laneing

Nice setup Grizz
What are those wheels on the last picture? Look like Mach 5 but they are probably not? Did you like the Terrafirmas? What ET do they have? How do you find your +5" shocks for daily driving? Can you write down what other changes did you make to the suspension? |

Not bad to drive , lots of road noise as you can imagine.
I'm fitting some Spring spacers as it needs a little lift due to the tyres being 12.5 " wide . |
