My friend has the FG Pajero its huge makes the MT look smallish, he bashes the s**t out of it and it takes it. He did split the body a little on the side mounts but has since made a full steel roll cage which stopped this when rolling.

MT tyres wont fit unless you cut the shell and under tray to bits
You still use the roll bar.
If you look back through my posts in this section, you will see a pic of mine somewhere.
They sound like a vibrating bucket when run, but do look the nuts.
To start and stop the engine, you need to remoove the shell each time
But they do look good when painted and stickerd up

Good luck

Just an idea to reduce the bee in a bucket noise. get some 10mm or similar sound proofing foam and stick it around the inside of the body to reduce vibration. the only drawback would be a small increase in the centre of gravity.
