  • Snow in the woods piccy

    today, a genuine track this time, but it makes for a lovely little drive in the snow, its all uphill as well, so quite testing....

        Lol!
        Think it's the boot and back seat full of work cr@p and the gradient pushing the back down and hence the front up.
        Its got Rough trax plus 2"s, coil spacers, and the front TB's wound up to max. Tyres are 32x11.50's..... everyone said I needed a body lift for 33's, so went for 32's and they miss the arches on full lock by about 10mm. enough for me!
        When they're worn out next year i'm going to get the body lift and some nice new 33's also

        Below is a better pic of it in "real life"!



        and what I want it to look like....

            They are tight buggers, wd40 'em the night before, and use the best fitting socket you've got and the longest bar and then...


            ....take it easy, just twist em a bit and re position the socket. Its pretty much impossible to count turns as one side has more space to turn than the other, so you end up tightening that one more. I found they were even when the pressure to turn was the same, ie a lot of fecking effort for a little bit of turn!
            The ride will get choppier, In retrospect I'd get the BJ spacers instead and enjoy the soft ride....!

            Coil spacers were from Diesel boy, who got 'em from someone else.... They are polypropelene so are quiet and stay where they are... very good product easy to fit. maybe DB can shed some more light on them?

              yeah please DB if you're reading. how much more lift do you get from the coil spacers?
              And re the BJ spacers, are they a bitch to do? i just know youre going to say yup!

                2 inches from the spacers. I had the help of a 2 post lift, a car jack and a garage mechanic and his air tools. Took an hour. Didn't even need to compress the plus 2 springs.... So no, not that difficult. Hth.
