As for the tires they fit without any modification as they are barely larger in diameter than the stock size, add bonus is they don't change the speedo more than 1-2mph.November 22nd, 2024 at 3:26pm ESTLWB250 (35) 0Good point on the bumpers. Early W163 bumpers degrade to the point where if you hit them, they’ll actually shatter into a bunch of pieces. GLWA!November 22nd, 2024 at 3:23pm ESTmbz2000 (9) 0Great truck, how are the Hella lights wired? Where is the on/off switch? I do not see in any pictures. Also, have you lifted the truck slightly to fit these tires? I understand that the torsion bars on either side can be adjusted for added height and also spacer can be applied for additional height?November 22nd, 2024 at 3:20pm EST$2,541 bid placed by @SergogrigNovember 21st, 2024 at 10:24pm ESTOnTheWater (4) Seller 1@waldinho appreciate the question but money order/cashiers check or cash are acceptable November 21st, 2024 at 4:02pm ESTwaldinho (0) 0Is it possible to PayPal?

This has been our reliable go to daily for the last seven plus years and we’ve enjoyed its reliable ruggedness the whole time. Welcoming questions and anyone to came take a look in-person. This is best described as a clean well maintained driver, overall condition would be consistent or more inline with a sub-100k mile ML, only maintenance or mechanical issue to note is front different mounts could be replaced but could easily be driven anywhere and anytime without worry. We’ve never hesitated to take this for a drive, only reason we're selling is we're trying something different.November 15th, 2024 at 12:54pm ESTOnTheWater (4) Seller 0@AutoSavant50, @ProdigalPetrolHead is correct with the addition of the better approach angle, the pre-facelift bumpers are smaller in all dimension other than width. Also, anyone who's had a facelift 163 will know the cracking that occurs with just age, these pre-facelift don't seem to have that issue.November 15th, 2024 at 12:11pm EST$500 bid placed by @PropMercNovember 15th, 2024 at 10:24am ESTProdigalPetrolHead (0) 0@AutoSavant50 If I had to guess it's for better ground clearance and bull bar fitment. Great looking 163 by the way!November 14th, 2024 at 4:12pm ESTAutoSavant50 (0) 0What was the reasoning behind back dating the front and rear bumpers?
