Hi,
i ordered those tires direct from the manufacturer in Italy. They'll be shipped to my house without any resellers. They should be here within two and a half weeks...
The winch is from a company called Rotfuchs...
And thanks for your nice words, would be nice to get a rating from you guys...
BTW, in january I'll live in a small house in austria, at about 1500m. There's no street up there, just a small trail with snow on it. I hope my blazer will make it up there in the snow, because If not I'd have to hike all the way up and put my food etc. in a backpack. That's the reason I ordered those tires...

well those tires look like they could chew through anything. I wonder how they will do on ice?

is there anywhere overthere that can sipe your tires? they do it over here and it helps out a decent bit on ice.

Maybe... I`ll first look how they perform...
Oh, and since I don`t have to go to work on friday, here are my weekend plans:
-finish my custom rear diff cover
-convert the nv233 to manual shift
-install a second ac-compressor for onboard air
-maybe get a rear bumper swingout started

Hi, yes I'll take a few pics when I'm doing it...
I already put a vacuum valve in the front diff actuator, so it's already a manual shift...

Didn`t get as much done today as I wanted...
I thought I could test my winch, but that damn thing stopped working. So I removed it and tried to figure out what`s wrong, but it`s still dead...
Then I removed the encoder motor and took it apart. I grounded down that part, because I`ll weld the shiftstick on that tomorrow:
