Like a needle in a hay stack but figured I'd ask anyway...
Looking for front and rear guards for a 181 but wider than stock...
Available in the states in fibeglass but freight will blow the cost out ...
If no luck buying... Whats a rough cost estimate to have a 3-4" strip of metal welded in to widen the stock ones..?
Any feed back appreciated...

Hey Tonz you turning it into a monster truck??
Mine still not liked down here, got to go back to stock me thinks. If you welded it along the body curve it wouldnt be that tough a task, should see if Steve can get Ed to sort it out, he done some crazy body repairs to Eltons 181, thats sydney ed not me tas ed lol

Thinking of "fattening" it up...
Narrowed balljoint beam to allow plenty of tuck in the front and decent sized rubber on the rear...
Just floating some ideas...
Jambo 2011 is just around the corner...

Save your money. Bang an eight inch beam in it and forget it.
