Just don't if you do like driving. I used to use my old freelander for offroading and driving to work. Working at Euro Car parts meant that I got a cheap deal on a good valeo SMF kit. But it made driving hell. Would judder like mad! Even more so in slow moving traffic. So much so I sold up and...

Mine just got a full weld up/ save from the scrapper. ;) January I'll tax her for the first test run.

15x10 seems a bit wide and a waste if you aren't fitting fairly large tyres to it. Having no lift you'll be limited to 31'' tyres - 31/10.5/15. But you will need to do the Camel chop (look it up). If you do a 2'' lift you'll open up even more options. Cheers

We've just done the HG on my 300tdi last weekend. Skimmed head and a 1.5mm gasket. We actually reused my headbolts as they were new ones fitted last year 1st time i changed the HG because it was blowing at the back. Anyway back on topic, when we tighted up the head with a snapon digital torque...

Afternnoon all, I was just wonder any one was up for doing some laning on the 2nd of Jan in the Hampshire area? I won't be leading as im new to the area but would love to tag along if anyone else is out laning on that day? Would love to go down to the plains with people that know it...

Thanks guys, will check it out at the weekend. Ill get the hammer out first and see how I get on

Morning all, a bit of an unusual one. So my discos been sat for 3months with the handbrake down and bricks in front of the wheels while ive been doing the welding. So its all welded up and ready to go but the handbrake is stuck down...? Any ideas on this. I havent looked into the problem...

Sorry fella, yeah was a good day. My disco did me well. Winched out loads of people and smashed a headlight. But good day all in all. Also drove 200 miles round trip from nr winchester to the pit and back in one piece.

I will be going along with 3 other mates. Anyone else up for joining?

Right I've finally moved in and settled! Anyone about for some lanes tomorrow? I've got one of my mates from london coming down tomorrow in his frontera. I'm thinking salisbury tomorrow...

follow me on instagram for more progress on my truck. @taylonm

Thanks for that, I'm moving to Chandlers Ford. Where would I find these groups to join?

Oh cool thanks guys. When I'm all moved and settled in maybe I'll see whos up for a green lane day or even pay and play. Heard good things about muddy bottom!

Whats it like around here any good? Is there many members down here that lane much? Just wondered as I'm moving down from Essex next month and wondered what the 'mud scene' is like down here. Thanks in advance and sorry if this is in the wrong place.

Now with added winch!!!
