You can get more stuff in if its a van body, I'm only putting a truck cab on mine to make it easier to build the rollcage :D

I'll post here again over christmas to let you know whats what, and what I break :D I did forget to mention I'm fitting standard springs, not pair-o-bolix :p

Think thats what I'm going to do, got 12 days off over christmas, so spend the first 2 days swapping springs and swearing at every rusted nut and bolt, finally giving up with a cup of tea then see what catches/clunks/completely disintegrates, then spend the rest of the holiday sorting it out :P

Thanks for all the replies, I'm hoping to change them over christmas and just wanted to get all the bits together beforehand and have an idea of any problems, I know the 1 ton landys had extended front of front and front of rear spring mounts too, which I think sorts out the correction wedge...

the 1 ton bits were on it when I bought it, and the springs were flat then, is it just the brake flexi's I need to worry about? (going stainless flexi's when santa brings them anyway, so thats not a worry)

speedy reply :D I know that, but I'm wondering about things like prop angles/ lengths, anyone had issues with new springs?

Evening all, possibly got a bit of a dilemma, I have a 109" s2a with 1 ton shackles, I've recently bought nice shiney new springs for it as the current ones are rather worn and flat (been that way since I bought it), I've read plenty on the pro's and con's of 1 ton shackles, and fitting new...

215/80 r15's are only quarter of an inch smaller than stock disco wheel, so they should fit no problem shouldn't they?

Ah right no worries, I'm after the front quarter

you're right there... I'm after a rear axle, been a long day lol

As per title really, rear axle casing needed, don't need the diff as i have 2 already but anything considered, doesnt need to have brakes or anything like that. Just rebuilt the diff I have sat in the garage, and it had a full brake overhaul last month, but the axle casing has gone porous around...

front or rear half buddy?

I'll see how it goes, I might not have any money left spare :P

Short notice for me, but I'd love to tag along another time if thats alright :)

I bought a diff off the lad who owns that, he's got it on unimog portal axles and tyres, it does look good, and I bet its the mutts nuts in the mud!

Sold to me, thanks Tom :)

Thats true, it would be nice to have some shiney new hinges on my 2a... :)

I'll PM you about it

does it come with hinges buddy? I'm after one :)

Looking good Harri, I always keep half an eye out on facebook for updates on your project, didnt realise you were on here too! Can't wait to see it finished :-)
