Mt tyers

<< < (5/5)

squaddie_fox:
my old four door, before i fitted 35's, it did have a +3 lift.


my current two door then on saggy original springs, caught slightly but the tyres were brand new special tracks and it was the extended side lugs that caught.

Range Rover Blues:
That's curious, you definitely seem to have more room in the arches than I do :-k

squaddie_fox:
i now have a +3 lift, though real world with all my gear and the winch in the front comes out at around 2-2.5 inch, i think your motor may be struggling due to the ARB's as they keep the axle relatively flat through it's articulation. with a lift i have noticed that when the wheel articulates it gets a bit more of an angle as it travels upwards especially as the opposite side drops down.

Range Rover Blues:
From your pictures it looks like you can get the tyre further into the arch before it rubs, that's what is curious.  I've bought (not fitted) longer bump stops to keep the tread aways form the wheelarch at the back.

Obviously I will get better articulation when I finish the disconnects (in that picture I've about lost grip on one wheel) but as it is in that picture it's just about to rub on the arch.

squaddie_fox:
i haven't noticed any rubbing inside the arch, and i had no bumpstops fitted at that point.
