Help wanted

Arthur Daily:
200 horses, that's impressive :grin: where did you get the rear bumper from?, have you cut the arches away or is that standard with just after market arches added? and the have you lifted it by 2" or more? sorry for all the questions but i have to start somewhere :roll:

David i have checked out the "lack off under body protection" and it will be having some rust treatment in the summer :thumbup:

boss:
impressive yes....i remain saying that is has 200/320 but my dad seems to thing its more like  220/360 ....im not so sure on that but its his car so im not going to argue! :lol: i think it also sounds better than a v8 :D

it has had a 2" lift and the arces have been cut...alot! hes running 34" jungle trekkers and they only just fit. when it flexes you can hear the tyres catching the arches a little toying with the idea of puttin an extra lift on there. rear bumper is from devon 4x4 south down tank guard fits in really niceley with it.
the camera that took those photos is shockingley bad! it just wont get and perspective right and you cant really see how nice the disco is. will try to get some better ones taken soon.
it is very unlikeley i am going to be able to reply to this thread again for some weeks as im packing the last of my stuff up and moving to saffron walden
if you want to know more about it pm me and should be able to write quick emails at work.

Jimbo:
The 'complicated valve block' up by the chassis rail under the drivers door is where all the ACE pipework meets up - can be the cause of interesting noises if a stone gets stuck between the block and the chassis rail !

I've got ACE and rear SLS on mine - never had any problems off road, other than the limits imposed by the tow bar  :roll:

Arthur Daily:
Thanks to everyone for there help so far :thumbup: cheers jimbo for the info on the valave block, do you think that it needs protecting?

I have had a look at some of the 4x4 shop web sites and have found some excellent under body protection stuff, looks like my bank balance will take a battering as well now!

I am taking it to a quarry p&p site on sunday to give it a try, i will get more of an idea of what is required then by how much i brake on it :roll:

if anyone can think of any good shop sites to look at then let me know.

Regards Arthur

boss:
