Don't need more than 2" for 32 x 11.5 mate, I run them just fine. Even squeezed 35s under there one day but the extra inch of the 12.5 wide was the problem there.

There was a post in the R50 - WD21 Center console swap about them being the same runner code & a guy bolted them in fine but there were some questions whether they fitted with Doors on as he tried with no doors By memory there was never any confirmation on this so make sure you let us all know how you get on!

Hmm I like the idea but figured since I actually have an R50 shifter sitting here I would love to use it (Plus they look sooo much sleeker & nicer)

So I've undertaken the R50 center console swap into my 1992 WD21 Terrano. I've given the forum a bit of a search but struggle to find anything with much info on swapping the shifter from the R50 over too so I can get rid of that horrid gap! Currently I've simply wrapped a boot around the standard WD21 shifter but figured since I have the R50 one here I might as well look into it. Has anyone done this and can give me a bit of a how to as to it's simplicity?

Swapped my rear shocks for new bigger & longer ones. So much simpler than changing the front ones that I only needed one beer

Massively busy day doing some maintenance & custom jobbys. Installed the R50 center console (little bit of a mission, few head scratchers) Replaced my shocks (This job was WELL overdue, I mean look at the state of that ah.... bush... that's not there...) Installed bash plate I picked up from a wreckers

Those are the ones mate! Contemplating changing the 4wd ones over too as they got more play than I desire

Been away for a wee while on vacation so left the truck in the hands of my father to borrow. Left my Moog "problem solvers" in the back and he gave the truck back to me with them installed, That's a win!

The thing is it wasn't that hardcore a trail to be honest. Relatively Shiney most the way with just a few rutty bits but one particular hill climb at the end caused a wheel to come up and down hard so I think that's what did it. I don't think I've heard of the Moog Problem solver Tie Rods. Can you tell me more? This was first trip out with my 2wd conversion so you can imagine I was annoyed

Drove the 42nd Traverse which is a 46km trail in the central north island of New Zealand through the Tongariro mountain area (Mordor) on the weekend. Was a great time but ended up bending the inner tie rods of my 2WD steering setup, luckily my mate lived close with a trailer and across the road from a wreckers where we managed to get some straight ones to get me home.

Installed the "2wd steering conversion" and replaced inner CV boots.

Na they've been designed as a real tight fit (the advantage of my fabricator being an Aircraft engineer) so no rattles there

Yep! Basically cut the link in half, drilled two 6.3mm holes and purchased these miniature 1T rated shackles to fit in the holes, thinking of changing to some sort of pin though for ever quicker disconnection.

Looks like the old girl is living again, been chasing the source of light smoke / steam coming from around the turbo. Turns out I had missed a washer on the oil feed banjo bolt seems to have solved the problem (fingers crossed)

Did an oil change & service on the ol' Girl today (heaps of space to work while the turbo is still off) She's not gonna know what hit her when she gets back running!

Some pics of the Turbo removal / change thus far: Turns out the EGT probe end that had snapped off was jammed in-between the blades so actually hadn't broken them. Still worth changing over the turbo though methinks (considering I have a spare one here now)

Did some work on removing my old busted turbo, played "find the broken EGT probe." Still have to fit the new turbo and re-install the intercooler. Also took the time whilst everything was easy to access to remove the EGR and fit blanking plates.

End of the EGT probe snapped off and went through my Turbo last night BUT I have sourced another Turbo from a local guy and it even comes with a spare head with half the milage on it than my current so that's kind of a win, busy days leading up to the weekend though, gonna start taking everything apart tonight. A sad day for Te Rino, (now if only I can win TOTM, that will at least bring me some joy)

Only on my own accord was having too much fun giving the Suzuki false hope every time instead to allow him to pull me in.

Playing tug of war with a Suzuki on the weekend. Had a busy night of cleaning last night, removing carpets etc. But this was just too much fun that it was all worth it.

Haha best of luck mate! I was just lucky to score mine off the old man's patrol when he upgraded to steelies.

I run 32 x 11.5 w/ 15 x 8 rims, stock suspension (just slight torsion levelling) on factory Nissan Patrol alloys. As you can tell there is still plenty of height spare but as mentioned above, it's the width that gets ya, i trimmed & folded the back & front of guards a little to cater for any potential rubbing. Offset helps as does the weight of rims. My alloys are so light that they mean my 32s weigh as much as my old 31s on Steelies. After wheeling with my 32s for around 4 months now I find the old girl much more capable than 31s, you could probably squeeze 33s under but I think due to weight & power that the 32s may be the magic number.

Got mine mounted under the stereo console in my WD21 just in front of the shifter. The microphone clip is mounted up next to my gauges (where altimeter etc was originally) & Coax cable runs out through firewall to the aerial which is mounted on my custom bullbar, which also offers it a little protection when crashing through the forest.

Haha well I guess that's now my claim to fame! clean in half too.

Significant force on an angle + hard surface and this is the result
