FridgeFreezer Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Just beware of the aftermarket fabricated hockey sticks they're known to fracture with time & road miles. Lift blocks always feel like a nasty bodge to me - asothers said if you've got the budget get proper springs & suspension from grown-ups not random aftermarket "extreeeeeme" off-road junk, it will be 10x nicer all round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Oh yeah, if you're sticking with Rover axles you need to talk to Nige at XCess 4x4 about diffs and shafts because nothing in your axles is going to live long with an LS up front.

Hybrid_From_Hell Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Nige Here (xcess4x4) have a lookie at the website, there are lots of videos and tech info to educate yourself quickly on pros cons options and more. The LS engine is going to give the entire drive train a royal spanking + you have the weight of a 110 vs say a tomcat racer / even a 90 The rear 110 Short Nose diffs are not "The greatest" thing LR have launched Diff wise either Happy to add thoughts and info here and advice, but have a good study of the info on linky then post up thoughts question queries and it can be discussed !

discomikey Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 A little late to the party but I'm happy to help you throw ideas about, I'd just like to add that the spectre cars had much less of a suspension lift than you may think! The arches and bodywork were what made it work more than simply adding height. Drop me a PM if you'd like 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
