i spose it could be down to tyre choice aswell,but you will have to lift a disco to get the larger tyres on that will go straight on a 90

i agree with the back end, but thats mainly down to the towbar, as for the diff scraping, why do folk fit disco axles on 90's?

Int it mainly coz they got discs on the rear?

you see, you lost all credability when you started tellin everyone how it was, now you have sunk to askin how to go about it. thats why no one has answered you

If you were out and about for some "serious" offroading you wouldn't have a towbar hanging off the back would yer?
