Marc.be Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 hi, did smebody already bought the flexible extended arches from paddock for range or discovery? I'm thinking about buying some, but would like to see some pictures of them before. Thanks, Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imspanners Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Paddocks versions below, both sets fitted by myself. (however, I used aluminium pop-rivets instead of the screws included) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imspanners Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Thanks a lot, think I may fit them too to my range rover, when I will get it.why did you use rivets instead of the screws? steel screws and alloy panels? but mainly because the screws can get pulled out easily, especially if you're pushing through deep water. The pressure of the water inside the arches can pop them. (it can pop the rivets if you're really enthusiastic) like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to put a suspension lift kit , maybe a little bodylift, because my range rover will be used for every day use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 This LSE RRC has OME +2" shocks and spring all round 60mm ish body lift from Bearmach and with the 33'' MTR's on it will cruse on the motorway at 90mph and it feels the same as my stock D2 does at that speed. I have removed both the anti roll bars but the wallow is still minimal even with the 33" tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teslo Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 I also have these flares fitted on mine. Screws were missing in the package and paddock was unable to deliver it to me( )so i bought new hex head screws and put on them black elox. I was suprised how much i need to cut from rear doors. But it worth the job. I was trying to put on 35" Simex( just for test), and there was no rubbing on wheel arches but on the inner wing. 33" are my "normal" tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
