the lift and wheels look great, but personally I would have left the decalling... but I'm odd that way (my friends keep telling me I should remove the decals on my Delica)
I am impressed though that they came off so cleanly

im glad you got rid of those decals! i see there was shiny wheel arches too. decals or flares?

you like the vativas? i didnt see that they came in 31" when i was looking. how would you compare them to bfg a/t's? they sell them both at my tire shop. i had nokians (not a/t) on my tracker and i thought they werent so bad. im buying tires this week in preparation for my trip.

If I was to gown down to Mex for an extended period of time, hands down I would put on BFG AT's.

Barely used the Vatiiva's so far. Will report back in a few weeks come winter.

One side, you can't tell there were decals on, the other you can. some paint fade but unless you're up close you can't see.

Nice work Jesse, it looks great without the decals (less Winnebago). And the lift brings it right back to gnarly mud machine.

Can't wait to see some of the other mods. :M

I just sourced a SuperSelect/Active-Trac transfer case from a 92 Pajero.

Will look at swapping it into our Delica.

Hey Jesse,
Were you in Whistler the other day? My dad called me ecstatically yelling " I saw the nicest deli just now!" He continued to describe a vehicle that looks like mine (black, 2 inch lift on a chamonx) but with all the decals removed and a pop top. I figured it had to be you. Told him thats the gent i bought my lift off.
