  12. unreal i was only up at dougs other day and he was looking faward to getting out winching in a couple of weeks with it.it is a worrying thing im only 2 mins drive from him and now i feel my truck could be next??? f***ing ba**ards
  13. does seem a little £££££ imo and a shiny landrover???? lol
  14. yea ive seen that truck on rds looks quite good.as for events im looking to start out winching i no im never going to be a champion?? but id like to go in with some hope of being a competitor not cast aside so to speek
  15. thanks for your help guys i was hoping to centralise the rad to miss the steering box when i pull it back,this in turn means there would be no room at the side of the rad for the intercooler so my options were to fit a charce cooler somewhere,or buy a different style cooler that would fit above the winch??redben101 what made you remove the charge cooler and what was the fit like under the bonnet??
  16. thanks guys some very impresve kit there i understand the 88'' is not a common truck to use but its different i also have too much cash rapped up in it to start agen,my trucks only 5 inch shorter than a mates tray back 90'' surely it wont make a massive difference? as for the articulation problem readind TOR mr andrews truck has 5 feet of flex so it must be able to be done keep your pics and info coming tho its realy healpfull and stops me feeling bad about my lack of LENGH
  17. i know what your saying mate im having big probs finding anything at the moment but surely some ones done a few i no everyones raving over the 100'' but if a 88'' is ballence'd surely they would be as good as anything??
  18. i know what your saying matey but i was hoping to remove the viscus fan and cowel and push the rad right back into the engine bay in effect the winch would be behind the grille toatally..
  19. thanks for you quick reply mate ive been looking on flebay and found some smaller coolers i was worryed that with the intercooler been behind the winch it may cause probs,the rad should'nt be that bad with it having a electric fan??
  20. hi been looking at moving the rad back on my 200tdi defender so i could put my 8274 behind the grill.ive been looking at charge coolers for saving space etc but will they damage the engine as a everyday thing as info says good for 1/4 mile etc???
  21. hi im looking for some help before i throw in the towel in looking for a few pics and info on a few 88'' winch challenge trucks pref on coils.ive looked and looked at the gary andrews truck in total off road but there seems to be limited info/pics around the web on it pleas help
