Looking gooood. Incidentally, which Terrafirma kit did you go for (i.e. light medium heavy duty)? And what does it ride like? I'm thinking of getting a Terrafirma kit for my 110, can't decided between medium and light duty.
 
went for the medium, maybe slightly harsher compared with standard at first but has bedded in well, thought i'd go for the medium as it carries stone around in the back quite often. Handling seems bang on too, lovin it!

do you get any vibrations at all?
in other words is it any different from drving a standard 90 other than being 2 inches taller:p
as im after a lift kit but alot of bad rep around with them
 
Might end up going for Medium then. I'm planning on doing some overlanding this year too, if I ever get the engine into my 110 :p should suit it quite well.

i have had a very slight vibration, maybe twice in the 3 weeks i've had it fitted and i reckon there is a good chance that it is down to bushes needing replacing.
I had air shocks on before which leaked so these feel much better and give a really solid ride. As of yet no problems at all to report with the kit, really happy with it and it performs better than i thought it would
 
265/75/r16, I got some of those insa traction tracks cos a lot of people said they were good, so far they have done well on and off road so i'm happy with them especially for the price
 
Cheers Laf. Ive heard the traction track are good tyres and Ive run insa mountains on a v8 disco and a 300tdi which I was more than happy with. Are the tractions as noisy as mud tyres or are they more all terain sounding cos I do a fair few miles on road and play when I get the chance (not as often as I like).
 
yeah mate they arent too noisy and hold the road well. I had pirelli scorpion muds on before and these are definitely quieter, perhaps not quite as good in the mud but it's a fair trade up.
I'm pleased I bought them and will certainly get them again, last week I drove down to my mate who lives in Lanlivery in cornwall from where I live in devon, did about 100 road miles all in and I can still hear properly! :p
