    Church stretton and long mynd shewsbury laning

    What made the Disco guy go in the hole ? Couple of years ago I was with CRAG when we cut the vegetation back on that lane to reveal the proper track. It had grown out and people were going around it which casued the hole. We cut it all back so that sort of thing wouldnt happen. When I drove...

    Riased air intake on a 2.5 petrol

    Was thinking of fitting a raised air intake to my 90 2.5 PETROL. Not planning on wading but I have seen a Disco in wales drop into a muddy puddle on a lane and the nearside dip into the water and sucked water in. Only thing is I cant seem to find a raised air intake for the 2.5 carb petrol...

    Alisport did intercooler removed cat, EGR blanked, ITG air filter. I had an alisport plug in chip (plugs straight into the seriel lead where the fuse box is). It makes an amazing difference. But be warned On kickdown it was like a james bond smoke screen out of the back. It was also pushing...

    Bala off road 4th sep

    SOmething for everyone. Couple deep water runs, few axle twister bits, plenty of rocky hills to go up and down few loose shale bits as well. The woods are a great area with some technical areas - great for 90's without roof racks although seen 110 with racks go round less demanding areas. If...

    Depends what you mean by "off roading" These boards seem to class off roading as pay and play sites. SO if you want mud and stuff look on there. If you want to greenlane check out the previous thread's in the Greenlane area theres a coupel of Shrops / West mids ones.

    90 Gearbox

    Its odd as the transfer box was the oil that was low and it didnt look like gearbox oil but then it was dirty before i cleaned it up. Was serviced at a landy specialist 6 months ago and had oil in both box's changed. When u park up and dry it off no leaks until you run it again. Other jobs...

    Entry Level Winch

    Champion 12000 lb winch from winch solutions. 3 years old used 3/4 times per year. Never missed a beat. I think most winches apart from real expensive warn and goldfish are made in same factories in china and who ever orders them just puts on their own label and appropriate mark up. If I...
