good luck If you've any problems, I've a tame one this way - judging by the state of the ball joint I've just taken off, it shouldn't have passed a month ago _________________ For great insurance deals on 4x4s, imports and more, contact Adrian Flux :

2" taller what you done i just take mine to GB Motors in corbridge i only live round the corner and ive known Dave for years. He is into his offroading but he is a landrover man.
Well it passed no problem atall, litle bit of play in the steering idler - ive got one from milners which ive had since god no's when so i may as well use it, and a slight hole in the rear silencer box, ask me if im bothered ill just wait till it blows then fit a stainless exhaust.
So im happy and thats me done for another year _________________ The secret is not to tighten things to tight coz you can never get the BA****DS off again. HE HE...

You got it through without any cost
Mine needed new spring's (one broke), asked him to fit heavy duty one's beause i carry lots of weight & tow alot, diddnt think they would give me a 2"+ lift , got font end jacked up straight away to level her up as she looked like a doorwedge
The shepherd's borrowed it tonight to go to Gillsland jammy *beep* is goin through kielder woods, he'll be havin some fun (he's only 18)
