Right, Nissan up front sorted. But after starting a few threads on other forums (UK) Nissan rear has been mentioned to. But the diff is not align with LR drivetrain? Any light on this would be helpful ;) Using a Nissan rear would save £££'s here in the UK. Toyos are in the £3000 spot whereas Nissan P ...

No one has broken Ashcroft cv's yet in the UK. And they've been tested in the toughest events What about 101 axles? 38mm shafts and rather large cv's. Pete Whitman is running his under an LS7 on 42" IROKS and he's had no probs. Bryn has his on Boggers without hassle. Then there's Dynatrack but ...

LR4x4 UK Forum user from Australia, has given me the idea. Any info on what ...

zzzz, Had a look at that gear, the rear bar looks o.k But again US kit front track bars sit opposite to RHD jeeps. They dont need to clear the diff pan, whereas RHD jeeps (in standard position) need to bend around it. To fit the LHD straight bar, a wee bit of fab work is required. I have gone with a ...

Well here are the Modded track bars, front and rear. At fully closed they are identical in length as standard. Expanded a 2" Max adjustment can be achieved, without compromise to strength. At the moment they are at a stage where i shall have to see what is needed to finalise them. The Bars measured ...

Sounds like a good way to go, i shall have a look tonight. Cheers

Reason i dont want one is the cost, if there are simplified options that are as effective? I would like to know....But it seems ...
