Well after reading the first couple of posts I've been racking my brains as to how removing locking diffs would improve articulation  :oops:


Now I've read the whole thread I'll go bang mi' head on a brick wall followed by a lie down  :roll:

Thank God it's not just me then ........  true JW the Xmas cheer might have had a "slight effect"

To add my two penneth, the RTI for a standard RRC is virtually the same with or without ARBs.  Some MOT stations will not issue a pass if they have been removed.  It counts as a modification that you must tell your insurance company about as it affects the handling.  When you buy your lift kit, tell them you are removing the ARBs as some kits have stiffer dampers for older (non-ARB) cars.
Don't expect miracles.  The cars in some of the above photo's have lots of expensive mods to allow extreme articulation.

I have 2 ARBs on the back, I like to be able to keep up with traffic, I have 2 big dogs, a b****y big trailer/caravan and an LPG tank.  I like the way it handles and I'm happy with it off-highway.  Put it this way, I never get stuck due to lack of articulation.

RRb, i know what you are saying and yes there has beena  few quid spent on my disco....the zuki is another story altogether. There are a few places i know of where you would be stuck with a 2 wheels waggling in the air, without lockers you would be going nowhere.
Driving skill is often the solution to most problems and with forethought and planning you dont need lots of travel often obsticles can be avoided.
