  1. The anti roll bars only make a couple of inches of difference, but a whole lot on the road. I would (and did) keep them.
  2. It was hot, too hot, I dont know how the winch bitches ran about all weekend in it, btw I was in the red disco usually at the other end of your winch line,
  3. we are setting off in a short while, both are marshalling, look for ORRP on the disco.
  4. where? since fitting a britpart (yea I know) master to my 200 disco the pedal is 50mm lower than the brake.
  5. I notice that few rebuilds in land rover comics ever get a Q plate??
  6. the teeth on the drive gear on the box will have gone, take it out and have a look.
  7. But SPI went bust the other year, or at least stopped selling stuff.
  8. I have my cut out just under the bonnet, before use I pop the bonnet and turn the key, it has been known for scrotes to pull the winch cable over the car to the towbar, then short the controls.
  9. Dont forget the champion winches have a good freespool. the first time I tried mine I nearly fell over, I was expecting the same resistance as my old Ramsey.
  10. but ropes take up a lot of room, I keep several strops of different lengths, often you need a long strop but sometimes a short one makes it possible due to some obtruction. as said forget the kinetic for now.
  11. Hmm salmon oil anyone?
  12. what make? was it secured in any way?
  13. My disco 1 weighs in at 2.7 ton so somewhere near that?
  14. Waits for fish oil man to make a comment
  15. You can prod him if you want? he is a big bugger
  16. A car will make it as far as the car park the access roads are very steep into the event.
  17. Funnily enough my rear window didnt go back up, when I got back from the Howling Wolf event, guess what I will be doing this week, it only takes 20 mins a side.
  18. A good day, for once we didnt spend all day on one SS so we got to see a lot more of the action.
  19. er no I meant the AWDC event at Kirton, do you know anyone who is going? for a relay?
  20. I have one I bought for my disco (disco parts I think), and then never used, (got a southdown tankguard) can deliver to this weekends AWDC event for £100.
  21. Its not much of a bigger job to take the whole wing off, as the access is far better, and a coat of rustproof can be splashed about.
  22. I just paid £660, but that included a new head. I didnt have time to take it off the road and do it myself.
  23. I usually wave at Landrovers, even the farmers ones. but I know most of the local farmers.
