discos first off road...ooopps

(1/4) > >>

chaosego:
was having so much fun getting to grips of what these can do off road in a bit of a old quarry. i was saying to my self just one more go round for about twenty minutes then the shocker went bang so that was the end of that!
i am not blaming the new pro comp shock as when i fitted them there was a top bush missing so i cut old one in half and put either side, but obviously this has caused the top ring to split and snap off. not to worry welded it back on and all is well for now any way.
both front and back anti roll bars are shafted and inverted themselves so they will have to go for recycling at the tip.


P.S.still have a wrap round bull bar for £50.00 if any one wants one.

TimM:
Don't throw your anti roll bars away, you my need them for the MOT, some testers say you do, some don't care  :roll:

You can fit a spacer to the rear mount that will make it behave a lot better.

Or, depending on where you are (you can add a location if you click on profile at the top), Range Rover Blues is after a anti-roll bar  :wink:

Range Rover Blues:
I'll take them both off you if you like :wink:

Procomp shocks are having a bit of a mare at the moment, lots of sets breaking just like youres , warranty claim ..........before you welded up ....but Id have probably repaired aswell..check the other side for signs of the same..

chaosego:
mmmm not sure what to do about the arb s at the mo as i have not got relocation cones fitted yet. i am still driving with the bars inverted does not seem to make to much diference, would this cause any long term probs if i continue?
as for the shocks if the other side goes will have to just weld them up, might even take them off and give them a good dose of the welder.... preventitive medicine me thinks!
what is the main benifit to keep arb s  on and how would i stop them from damaging/up ending themselves while off roading?
i notice scorpion do heavy duty ones, is this the reason?
