I like that idea it would also prevent brake line from getting crushed Regards Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have done this on the challenge truck with some rebar on the rear brake lines. Works well and helps prevent them getting damaged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know at this stage - basically they've had issues with damage including someone being out of bounds & causing damage which then cost them money to put right, so can't really blame them for being cheesed off at that. Nothing about limiting numbers, the current news is they're restricting it to the "dryer" months (in Wales! ) this year and going to re-assess before next time. By the looks of it no-one is there beyond August (off-road anyway) so joining in with another club may not gain anything. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess see how next year pans out but is it perhaps on the cards to consider having an earlier in the season one and an August one if that holds out? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would sort the steeringshaft 😎🙈... ish... 🙂 I am sure you will find a neat solution. -is there anything wrong with making the connection longer so you can place the reservoir further from the damper? /mads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landroversforever Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Would it fit on the other side of the damper mount? Or is there space behind the mounts each side to spin the tops for the hose to come out the back into the engine bay and then sit along the wing edge under the bonnet?
