I run the same tyres on my 95 disco. I only have 5mm offset rims and winding out the stop bolt worked fine for me. I have 3 inch coils so I dont know if this helps.

Dam never heard or experienced that before. I would look at the problem from a different angle othrwise you may just end up cracking some aftermarket ones to.

Top advice Thanks for that. I will look into seeing what I can get done with the rear diff first then.
I won't look into the diff locks then if it makes it worse.

I might have to try and sell my rhino racks i have sitting in the shed, for some extra funds. They sit in ther 99% of the time.
Is that $600 for the 4 axles disco1. Sorry if thats a silly question but am a bit new to this.
Also do yuo think fitting Lock right lockers might help a bit.

Ive been running 32'" mtr's for the past few years and its all held together, survived about 3 trips to Land cruiser mountain Park. Cityview, The Cape. don't know what else I could throw at it to break them. Maybe a set of 35" simex extremes might be able to get the job done.

Snake racing just say that it gives you back your original contact, Nothing about being able to correct your angles. Dam I thought it was a good cheap fix. I guess it would still give you a lot more contact so less chance of breakage.

I thought it was a bit funny him saying front or rear on his site. I was trying to work out how you would only need to do either.
I thought it was only axles that were the drama. Dam looks like a lot of money to get it all sorted might have to put the 4wding of for a while. Might be a long while ...

I meant I know what ratio I need just needed to know of anybody that makes CWP for Disco 1.
Also I reading on the Les richmond web site he has CWP for about $650 but his quote said front or rear and not Each !! So I was wondering, do you only have to do 1cwp front or rear or is it both have to be done

Is that an informed opinion, or just what you have heard. I was wondering if the axles are breaking because of people who put 35's on usually drive like there truck like it is invinceable.

The old thermo fans are crap for the air con ditch em and go to supercheap $50 for a sweet 10" that will cool it better than ever. Of course you will need 2 but one will cool better than both the original crap they put in.
