right no locker allowed .standard running gear only thank you.

landrover didnt have them for the first 23 years that the way it stays apart from hdc and centre diff lock and tc that all youve got.

Bulli:
if you want the honest truth you will get further than you can ever drive with a GOOD winch

Budgie:
You say your springs are "fixed", if by that you mean you've secured them at the top with jubilee clips or something then take them off and fit cones in the top to allow the springs to dislocate.
This will give you an extra inch or so on the drop. It won't increase traction as there still won't be any weight on the wheel but it may stop the unloaded wheel spinning as much.

It's also not a good idea to fix the springs at the top unless you've got near new retainers at the bottom. I see too many springs snap or bend  the rusty bottom retainers and dislocate at the bottom instead of the top. Tricky when you come onto level ground and the spring misses the axle!!

Other than than that you're looking at lockers or a winch, as has already been said.

Oh, and I think you'll find that Land Rover have been around for a little longer than 23 years.  :wink:

there is 3 locking holds at the top. with that u can use the original brake pipes also prefer long travel springs or progressive springs. all the springs and shocks was a full new set 18 months ago

was thinkin of adj shocks heights. like on boyracers or high lift amerian ones with cars on 27 inch rims and lower disloate hats but havent looked into it together with a set of shocks mounted at 45deg for rear 3 link movement

i meant from 1946 to 1969 if u include all with out any sort of locker

mentalmoshio sophs V8i:
winch works well if there is sum there to pull 2
