--- Quote from: "boss" ---ok then.


quick question all,
what is that big hidous round thing on my front axle near my diff???
--- End quote ---



its a counter weight.....

its just there to soak up the resinants/vibrations caused by the wheels/diff/prop etc

not realy needed on yours as its more of an offroader now..... not realy needed on a road disco but just helps to get rid of those little vibrations at certain speeds..... makes it a smoother ride for the driver

you most probely need to get ride of it, will just get in the way when offroading

boss:
i'll wheel you!!!!! :x *shakes fist*
 :lol:  :lol:

thanks for that, ill just leave it for now. should be more pics tomorow.

boss:
Ok as promised i have taken some twisty pics, remember its not finished and i haven’t got dislocation on the front, also......thats sh*ts scary! i let off the clutch and went up forwards too quickley, thought it was gonna roll!!!!
it was a little higher on the front wheel too but i heard scraping and snapping from the bodywork (chop chop next week) so i let it off a little.  it is on a big pile of stones! so dont think its only 2 wheels in reality its 3 1/2ish.

there are wheels in the back because i thought the back end was a little too light and my +twos where fully extended and the x-springs were carring most of the weight


anyway enjoy :D

Disco-Ron:
One of the guys in our club has the X springs on his 90, whenever we go anywhere, his main springs don't seem to move, much like yours, it seems to me that the x springs seem to push the axle down too much, ie, they don't allow the compressed wheel to compress somehow...

Not worded that very well, but i know what i mean.....
