New Shoes!

As promised, here are a few photos of the ole girl in her new shoes and 30mm spacers!
I'm really happy with them


245/75 R16s all round!

Shiny new tyres with drilled/grooved discs


30mm wider stance. Can really tell the difference in on road handling!


Giving the old 235 grabbers a last outing down the horse fields!

Shoes? Shoes are what you reline drum brakes with. Don't you mean "boots"?

"Drum Brakes" If this was 1975 and this was Austin Elegro id be inclined to agree with you Shoes will suffice

It's a Disco 2, you have a drum brake on it. Unless somebody has managed to install an aftermarket disc brake system.
The rear prop shaft connects to it on the T-box end. It's the handbrake.

When I first bought the motor there was a few raps of purple strapping around the bottom of the Hippy Nudger I have since removed said strapping but, there was an amount of scoring left behind so I have put some handle bar tape I had in the shed in its place! There is also some rust/damage on the edges which it covers until I get around/can be arsed to fixing so thought id get 'creative'
