Bankz's 110 Double Cab

Reckon you got enough mud on it?

Never enough!! Hahaha

Bought some LRS Offroad front light guards today, look like an Equipe copy but a fair bit less.

Don't like the look of the perspex ones at all, these should help protect the headlights! Can always tuck some perspex behind if I have too.

Look pretty mean too!

They are tasty, really like the finish and fancy a pair myself! Much better than the 'dog guard' LR ones i have on me truck.

Yeah! They do look good and quite a reasonable price too compared to others that are £120+!

New Years gift to the 110 is a set of 285/75 Cooper S/T Maxx tyres, the STT Pros are too aggressive for what I need at the min. I don't do much deep mud plugging anymore so the S/T Maxxs should be more than sufficient being a 30% on road 70% off road tyre rather than the STT Pros which are 15% on road and 85% off road.

Should make for a nicer ride too!

I think my mate has dibs on them but if not they will be for sale on here, only covered 2k miles if that!

looking good mate

i’ve only got the cooper at/3 s on mine , did think about the more aggressive ones but like ur good self spend a lot more time on the tarmac

will be interesting to see what u think of them

Cheers! I did consider the AT3s as well but too road biased in the end!

that’s true, will be interesting to see what there like greenlaning , so far i’m very plsed with them

Light guards on! Very good quality from LRS, come in a nice fine Raptor esque coating, matches the rest of the landy perfectly. Plus the mounting holes are drilled behind the surrounds, so if I don't like them one day just a case of new surrounds instead of body work.

Rather like the look! Bit different to most, should provide better protection too. Plus adds a little security too.




And new 285/75/16 Cooper Discover S/T Maxx tyres delivered today by Craddocks. Shall get them fitted tomorrow

Light guards look good! I really like this 110

Thanks!

I have just finished my bulk read of your thread, like you I am disgusted by photobucket, had a feeling the blackmail would come eventually once they'd hooked enough fish, I've lost everything, there is no account there anymore for some reason, not the first time it has happened to forum user I know.

But this is a fantastic build.

Well done.

Yep! Absolutely horrible, I can't see them lasting much longer tbh. Apparently they did this because they had hit financial trouble... I have got ALL my images on my PC problem is trying to match them to what I'v written as some are from small mods and a little dull but some are full rebuilds and even guides! If you want me to post any pics give me the post number and I'll try and add them back in!

Cheers man, much appreciated! Got more to do this year! Current plan is to save up for the cage and get that fitted.

Tyre fitting time!

All done! Took a while though!

Went for a short drive down a dual carriage way, so much better! Leaps and bounds better on the road than the Pros, quieter and a lot less vibration even at 30/40. A welcome change! Not sure I'll get a chance to test em off road till mid Feb though!!

I bet the the tyre fitters **** themselves when you rolled up

Haha I wasn't very popular at my local place when I rocked up at 45mins to closing time the new tyres had been stacked for ages as well so they didn't half struggle
Glad you're happy with em, be good to see how they fare with your offroading

nothing like the smell of fresh rubber , did they pick on the smallest guy to fit the tyres, lol

looks smart , if i read in the news shopper “ local main does snow dance “ , we will know who it was

i normally go to setyres in crawford

PS, who done the white writing on the tyres or did they come like that, lol
