He loves the mud. He also has the ability to move branches and helps me float.

Mixed opinions so far then!! I've taken some of the others off and there is no sign of strain.

Although the weather appears ok in the picture the heavens opened a couple of minutes after! I only had a jacket on and seriously could have got no wetter if i had waded waist deep into a pond!!!

I think we've probably discussed this before, haven't we Simon?  :D

The problem is that the design is fundamentally flawed. The extender studs either have to be over tightened or under tightened to get them to line up. Every fastener has it's correct torque to provide maximum clamping force. To increase or reduce this is a fudge and breaks basic design principals.

However, once installed and the wheel is fitted, the studs are in tension and *shouldn't* give a problem. But, as I said, I've seen/heard of far too many broken ones.

steve howes:
i ran a set on my 410 & my samurai and that had 31 in grizzerlys never had any problems.

Mart:
mine have been on for about 4mth now and not had a problem with em as yet but as V8moneypit says you can never get them to line up just nipping em up there either too tight or too slack.

cherokeegraham:
I fitted them to the rear of a Tiger Super 6 kit car once, first real test run and the same happened. I'll never use a set again, that's for sure!
