Mark90 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 From Ralph's link for 2006.... 419 VELA (ESP) PUERTO (ESP) LAND-ROVER DEFENDER Looks like Disco2 style suspension set-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Jordan Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Looks like Disco2 style suspension set-up. I thought Disco 2 had front radius style arms on the rear too ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark90 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 You're right, it's not a straight disco2 setup on there. Hence I said 'style'. I was particularly refering to the chassis mounts of the front and rear arms. Also can't see if it has a watts linkage etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robhybrid Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 My gyess is touota running gear with a grp shell plonked on top, have to have a look at the running gear on my toyota land cruiser later on today. Oh did I say just done a deal on a 4.2litre landcruiser accident damaged class D I think, should make a good towing vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
