Always test fit wheels before getting tyres fitted! But I guess you've learned that now 😅

Loving these episodes just as much as your travel episodes. You just edit & narrate them so well. Really engaging and entertaining. Great work. 👍

You probably got the rim for a Toyota, which has a center bore of 106mm. It's really just 4mm difference on the diameter, 2mm on the wall. I almost feel like machining those 2mm of the wall would not compromise it, but who knows.

You guys better feature this at Melb 4x4 show looks mint!

Just an unlucky snag, but the whole build is coming along great!

Nice wheels. I’m pretty sure that somewhere in that box it will say to fit the rims to the vehicle before mounting the tyres to them to check fittment

Those rims would fit the 80 perfectly ;)

G003 are a staple for Snow-wheeling in Alberta Canada. Great tire, my safari has them on up here for the snow 🤘🏻

Awesome

Get them thrown in a lathe and increase the centre bore. Not a hard job, only thing is the centre caps won't fit, but you can make 3d printed adapters or use thin alloy pipe adaptors to make them work also with the larger centre bore.

If you carnt get the rims take to a machine shop and get the middle lathed out to the correct size. I have done this before on an old patrol as long as the wheel studs are right it won’t take much to large the centre. Keep up the great work

Thats project cars for ya! Just wondering with your remote res clamps in the rear. I've got Dobinsons MRRs' and i know their instructions say not to clamp in the middle of the body of the res. I'm guessing this is because floating piston and clamping may interfere.. if its not in their fitting instructions, worth asking the question of fulcrum to check. Keep at it fella's not far off now!

the builds looking great, it sucks when parts dont work out but im sure nathan will sort you out

Man, I just learned about this uncommon bore issue today as well! I was ready to bolt on a set of Toyota's, and noticed a slight visual difference...106 vs the required 110.....so it's either to the machine shop, or maybe a router if I feel adventurous tomorrow!

what a shame wheels looked great, cant wait to see finished rig in Sydney. Been awesome watching the build from the start.

Had a similar issue on my 06 GU TD42 ute. Got stock steelies powder coated. Needed a die-grind so they'd go back on the hubs. Tyre shop (Bob Jane Kotara NSW) were all over it. Keep up the great work tho lads it's coming together great these hiccups happen from time to time. Cheers

Bugger about the rims. They owe ya a carton for the mixup for sure! Rig is looking sik though.

Yeah, make sure you can still easily access the adjustments on the remote reservoir in any conditions. Last thing you need is having to crawl underneath when wet or muddy etc. Great progress. It's starting to look like a track weapon. Beadlocks are illegal for road use in NSW. So I'm sure a lot of the hardcore 4WDers in NSW are watching this with envy. But it sux that you were sent the incorrect wheels. Hopefully it's been sorted by now. Great episode boys. 👍👍

Awesome vid mate, Wheres that power steering cooler from? I need to move/update mine

If the supplier sent you the wrong wheels and is going to stick you with their mistake, a decent machine shop will fix up that centre bore for you.

I had the same problem with my non beadlock walkers and had them machine out with the boys at off-road konnection as alloy wheels are had to find with a big bore

Can you do a price breakdown once your finished

Poor Liam is it, that would suck but at least the looks good

Just need the bores machined. Common practice as the older vehicles like Gu and Gq are larger than the new vehicles they manufacture these wheels to suit

You could send the rims to a machine shop to bore the centre out to the measurement you need

Where are the spring cushion rubbers for the top and bottom of the springs ??

Get yourself some coil retainers so they don’t pop out when wheeling offroad.

get the centre bores opened up on a lathe. carton of beer or two should sort that minor problem out.

took one for the team mate...

With a set up like this is your old man a engineer? Boiler maker? Mechanic?

Are you going to get it engineered? Build has come along great. Would be a shame to get it defected for 35s and lift. I personally have had nothing but dramas with police in the high country due to lift and tyres.

Shame about the wheels mate. I have the All Terrain Yokohama Geolandar’s on my Prado 150, and they’re epic tyres. I’ll definitely be going the Geo’s again, but maybe the AT-X next time for a bit more aggressive tread.

Bummer on the rims man but keep up the content the Gq coming along mint! 👌🏼

Stupid question because it'd remove the ability to rotate tyres but are there front and rear specific rims in that set.

Was it all the wheels that were not bored out correctly? Cause there were still 4 wheels/tyres on the back of the Ute at 17:20.

these issues are common. hope you can get a replacement quickly

I should go to bed but then I saw this recent upload

Get a machine shop to take out the centre to the correct size will cost bigger all

Man. I could feel your pain. It’s all looking awesome. Just a question if anyone knows, are 35’s and a 3” legal in Victoria, and how do you get around fitting them?

Must be fully inspected, tested and certified by an automotive engineer. You should talk to one BEFORE you start or there is a good chance you will waste your money on parts that don't meet the engineering requirements. This video gives you a good idea of how an automotive engineer goes about the certification and all the work and paperwork involved. This is N.S.W. and while laws vary from state to state, the process of certification is basically the same. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nZ-H1Zqpf6aug5s.html

Vic's a nannie state, far from legal. I'm sure some mobs would engineer it but without it and by the book, no way in hell for any of the above. Beadlocks are a canary on their own

I really hope you used a genuine windscreen seal bro 😭 if you didn’t it will %110 leak. also if any sealant was used it will definitely cause rust and leaks. take it from me, had my windscreen changed 4 times, leaked 3/4 until the 4th when i finally got a genuine seal

The more I think about this, the more I would be interested to see what the retailer says about this. The box clearly states 110.15mm, and if it's not that all the way through the "bore" then it's not as described. All their rims are not as described, misleading, or maybe it was a Friday arvo job and they "forgot" to bore all the way through on yours. Is it only one that is like that or all of them?

I've just purchased a set of ATI hybrids! Picking them up with some new tyres on Friday. What nuts did you use? Tyre shop called saying they didnt provide any. Any idea if factory patrol nuts fit?

Question, did the two blue fulcrum springs look the same height? Is there a driver's side and a passenger side because of a load difference?

i know people machine boar out ve/vf commy wheels to fit earlier models, is that something you could do?

What a fvck around. How many times you hear about how it looks :D Even the heroes in the comments, gonna look mint mate :D :D My favourite though "These wheels are quite unique, there's a couple of others the same on the market" 🤣🤣🤣
