Nice bit of innovation and recycling there matey. Has anyone evr done something similar on a Disco 1?? May try it soon as running larger wheels puts a hell of a strain on the rear hinges and the door seems to drop every 2 weeks.

the only thing it could do with is a rubber to stop it rattling and going to make a braket to put the
hi-lift on too.
