When I was in the US not long ago, I was lucky enough to get to tag along on a short wheeling trip in a place called Carnage Canyon, which is halfway between Longmont and Boulder in Colorado. I was a passenger in the yellow 90, which was stock apart from 33's and some protective gear (no lockers). The red 90 is very heavily modified.
Thanks to Yousef and everyone else for letting me tag along, and thanks to Keith Kreuzer from Rovertracks for setting it up and for selling me the parts I wanted for a VERY good price.
Carnage Canyon is on the US equivalent of State Forest land. Pity we don't have tracks that good in OZ SF's.
I found out that siped 37" MTR's do really well on rock. Oh, and I also found out that rover V8's idle terribly at over 1600m altitude.

If anyone is interested, the specs on the red 90 are:
Front and rear ARB lockers and lower ratio ring and pinions (4.1 or 4.75?).
35 spline Salisbury rear
Heim jointed super long, super beefy trailing arms
Rear coilovers
Custom roll cage
37" MTR's with added siping

Whats the deal with his front shock setup?? Why's he (or she) running them outside of the spring. I assume they would be doing it for more travel? similar to running extended shock towers?ISUZUROVER wrote:If anyone is interested, the specs on the red 90 are:

No idea. AFAIK most of the suspension/axle mods on his (Yousef's) truck were done by Keith from Rovertracks (Revor on pirate). I'm sure he would be happy to answer the question if you PM him.stuee wrote:

If you have lots of travel on the front the shock binds in the spring seat as you can't get a straight line from top to bottom mount through the spring seat. You get a bending force on the shock.
I had to move my shock to this position.
It also makes changing springs and shocks a lot lot easier.
