Hi - Nene Overland tubular bumpers with Hella lamps. Top lamps are Wipacs on a Hannibal roof rack. Hope that helps!

I'd completely agree with the BF Goodrich 285/75/16 with ZUs - always look and perform awesome.

Thanks Harry, took a look at Nene Overland website, but couldn't see an A Frame version on there.

I think the previous post might have suggested a very similar one...

How are you getting on with the 285 tyres? I'm thinking of going 265/75/16.... any recommendations regarding Tyre brand / model?

I reckon 255\85\16 are the best compromise. Not as fat as 285 but taller for!better clearance. Getting some for my current project. Km2 on blindos.
