This depends on what you are wanting..... You can physically fit quite wide tyres, but they would be outside the tyre makers rim guidelines. You can also fit shorter wider tyres within spec. e.g. a 205 x 16 is a tyre that has also been standard fitment on Land Rovers, not as tall as a 7.50 x...

Every vehicle I own is modified. I've never once been asked to have any of them inspected for insurance purposes. All have full mods declared.

A byway is a road....

You shouldn't need to do this. Its not as if you have to check for any other road.... If it is on the map as a right of way and there are no sign or barriers, then you should assume it is fine to drive.

You only need to correct caster if you lift. Land Rover products ride quite high in standard trim, lifting can be done, but isn't always needed and can cause other issues aside from caster, such as poor prop angles.

Checked by whom and for what reason? Have you ever modified a vehicle or insured one before?

Why did you buy a +4" lifted Disco for road use? Standard shocks/springs should ride quite well, it should not be harsh or stiff. But you probably won't ever achieve a "floaty" ride, just the wrong sort of vehicle. I quite like the Flatdog springs. But you could mix and match springs from...

No it doesn't. There can't be a car in the history of the motor vehicle that has worn something out by turning the steering wheel and having PAS. What exactly do you think will wear and/or break?? :oops:

You have a number of options. Firstly, Series steering in good order shouldn't be all that heavy. Parking speeds you should almost be able to palm the steering wheel round when on tarmac on standard tyres. Off road the standard steering can kick back in the ruts however. If the steering is...

Nonsense.

A regular rubber bonded bush is well... bounded to the metal insert. When you do them up tight it won't rotate freely, it will just stretch and compress the rubber as the insert tries to move. If you tighten it with the axle in the wrong place there won't be enough movement in the bush rubber to...

Maybe you could give us less info to work with.... as you've offer so much in the way of specs, sizes and photos of your LR here already. :rolleyes:

No idea tbh. Fitting a body on a chassis is fine, although in the case of the Defender, it doesn't use a body tub, it has lots of separate panels. You'd need to weld and "modify" any chassis quite a lot to actually fit it. Which would probably be ok, but does maybe put you on slightly less firm...
