--- Quote from: "TheBlueySilverThing" ---i say get the i version with the bridge cos, if you get the low line, you'll be having problems with bunching up at one side and bending tierods, with the epi9 no need worry about bunching  :wink:

so you can fit 9.5mil plasma ( dont have anything else  :roll: ) and keep 100 ft of rope, if you had the ep you'd really only be able have 90 ft, or else it would be a royal PITA when on side pulls

Just to clarity, are you saying the bridge on the epi9 has more space above drum than the tierods on the ep9? Interesting point :-k .

--- Quote from: "Maarten" ---We mounted  the spring seats aprox. 3 inch higher on the chassis. We've fitted springs which result in a 5 inch lift (makes +2 inch) and fitted maxidrive portal-hubs and that makes another 4inch lift and that totals in aprox. 6 inch lift with dual shocks.

Now we've fitted 36" simex but we intend to mount 38,5" tyres.

Sorry for hijacking the thread but..................

Maarten, what diff ratios are you running? If you have fitted portal hubs then i'm guessing that you are using the standard rover axle casings. Are you using rover diffs? Cheers, G

the diff ratios are 4.11 and the portal-hub has a 30% reduction. We have used the standard axle casings with maxidrive lockers. We did improve the axle casing a litte because we were affraid they wouldn't last.....




Best regards,

Maarten
