Just had a Terra Firma Big Bore Expedition shock absorber shear at the base of the cylinder whilst driving through Russia (on 'roads' that in fairness have been pretty good mostly). Anyone any thoughts on whether to replace with original LR parts or to stick with TF and just accept that this was bad luck? Driving a 110 that has had rear seats removed and converted to sleep in back. Has roof rack, water tank, fridge freezer etc however total weight is not more than it would be with seats in and two adults in the back.
TF would be shipped from UK, likewise for genuine parts. Currently in Irkutsk and heading South to Mongolia.
Thanks for any info in anticipation.
