  4. Pan hard rod roughly put together and Bolted up tight Time for a bit of flexing Now the other side nothing touching as yet, will need to do the same at front but cannot yet due to snow that is left regards Stephen
  5. Have been looking at that, not sure without some sort of protection from debris kicked up from tyres Regards Stephen
  6. Wait for it, wait for it Electrotard has started some wiring..........lol regards Stephen
  7. Last one done then you get another issue cannot fit reserve reservoir like this Because steering shaft is in the way so will need to relocate both elsewhere regards Stephen
  8. One thing I did notice my breakages became few and far between when I fitted a Salisbury back axle to my lightweight regards Stephen
  9. You must have loads of new and second hand outlets in the States, anything Lincoln, Mi!ler, Cebora, Snap on will be good (at the ampage you are looking at) if your seeking advice on make, Euro torch fitment is the way to go in my opinion regards Stephen
  10. Have broke several, always at the diff end regards Stephen
  11. Very much so, quite excited thinking about it Regards Stephen
  12. How much drop do you get with the portal boxes ? and also interesting that the drop is angled instead of straight up and down like Mog or Volvo portal axles, therefore losing a wee bit of axle clearance Regards Stephen
  13. Very very nice indeed what size IROK's are you running regards Stephen
  14. Front nearside shocker fitted, had to make some room in wing for braided hose also ran out of aluminium so had to make top spacers out of stainless regards Stephen
  15. Torq Axle bought all the rights off portal tek and can supposedly supply you with parts.. Web site is www.torqaxle.com Regards Stephen
  16. You can have all the trick diffs you want, they are still not guaranteed to get you out, even if you got stuck before you engaged them, ask me how I know... I've said it before, I would have well equipped self recovery system before any trick axle gadgets because this will allow you to get out or progress if you want to Regards Stephen
  17. I looked at that and other packages but chose one with the extension pipe as I think that could come in quite handy, I must say it feels very robust regards Stephen
  18. Me too figured it may come in useful at some point in the future... Regards Stephen
  19. I thought that myself, probably both made by the same company and badged differently like a few things these days regards Stephen
  20. £5 difference Got mine from plumbing supplies direct regards Stephen
  21. So just to put this to bed this arrived today got this lot for the same price as the torch only at machine mart Regards Stephen
  22. I agree with most of this ^^^^^^ For me as I gained in confidence when learning to off road, my vehicle became less able This is when the modifications started on what was a bog standard lightweight, bigger tyres first..and then here we are, coils, lockers, front and rear winches and now portals My lightweight is my toy, not my daily driver, therefore it gets pushed to and beyond its limits sometimes resulting in damage ( quite often when doing modified trials with fiddle brakes ) just to see how far through or over I can get @Escape is correct some of us seek the limits of our personal abilities, be that driving fast, offroading, exercising, electronics, modifying our vehicles etc, it's what makes us tic Regards Stephen
  23. I will let you know after I've done some real world testing, goes up to 150psi so I'm hopeful, Sid will not need it as he has on-board air Regards Stephen
