Wheels on camper

I also own a Cub, mine is a 1992 Supamatic Off Road fitted with Range Rover wheels from the factory. Original owner had a Range Rover, funny that. The huge height difference from your standard 14" Holden wheels and the huge Range Rover 16" tyres meant that the frame on top of the camper (which flips up and becomes the floor) is custom fabricated and massive!

When you change to 15" wheels and tyres, do you have enough adjustment/lift in this frame to cover the extra height?

Hi Dean,
One of the problems encountered when larger rims/wheels are fitted is mudguard/wheel clearance. This is not usually much of a problem when the camper is stationary or on good blacktop, but offroad you may find the top of the wheel hits the mudguard on bumps rather than the bumpstop as it's designed to.

You may get away with it, but it may be worth putting the axle underneath the springs to get a bit more clearance . Your axle will still be the bit that hits the ground first in a rut but the camper body is that much higher.

In regard to the rules and regs governing these alterations, IMHO as long as it's not too way out, no one will notice and you would be dead unlucky to get picked up on them.

Disco.

G,Day dean r2, you will have to look at the axle,springs, anchour points ,bigger wheels =bigger hubs corrigations are the killer you'll bend a standard axle in no time look at the weld sections of the Aframe to chassis will they cope?
