jasonforsythe:
i read that somewhere else but my pals defender has had the same set up for years and no bother and what weighs more a def or a rrc? god knows i think its a risk i can take as only really for road use j

Range Rover Blues:
Well I was reading in LRO today that Defenders often have the wrong weight on the V5 (MAM that is) but they can definitely weigh more loaded than any other LR product, hence the bigger rear springs and Salisbury axles.

Yes you are probably alright, the back end of a Defender is over-designed in many repects, but if something went wrong and the worst happened it would be used against you

Surely the risk of a wheel breaking at 60 mph on the A1 is far higher than the risk of a wheel breaking at an off road site when you are doing 5 miles an hour and there are only a few other nutters about?

My First Landy:
Can i ask where you got the spacers and how much? I have a 1988 Ninety and have got my stickey mitts on some RR alloys and tyres.  :afro:
