could try a Extension Spring between the the arial base and LR body rather than a bungee
There's no real way of redesigning it. I mean, it works the way it works, but it also has side effects. An HD bumper for instance doesn't have many serious drawbacks in the off road world, so we're all happy to use them. A snorkel aswell, etc etc.
A steering guard of course isn't as set in stone as that.
Some of the challenge guys are using guards made up of 30mm bar, so it does the same job but with less of a scoop. Arguably stronger made out of bar aswell.
The track rod protector works well. The QT front guard of course does that job on a lesser scale. Does take a lot of the weight off the bar.
HD bars are a must. I would recommend the Terrafirma bars, supplied with greaser joints for about £100.
You can easily weld some box onto the QT guard and make up the same principle. You can't directly fit the Glyn Lewis guard to the axle with the QT guard anyway so there's still mods to be done.
All that said, I've had HD bars, QT guard and no steering guard for the best part of 18 months, I've been over, under or through the worst that northern England and Wales could throw at it (albeit with an element of care but often a battering of v8 power) and its all supa dupa.

whats the problem with the starter?
Not to sound rude or (too) jealous lol, but u have far too much money looks very nice tho!
i'd put that in me sig if i knew how lol, my first agreementI agree with discomark88 lol
mate, dont worry about it, yours isnt looking that bad.
ok so its a fair amount of work but:
its a huge relief when its all done
yours doesnt need that much work
its so much easier when the car is fully stripped.
and luckily it doesnt look anything like this:
as you can see there is a general lack of crossmember, various deficiencies in wheel arch and a serious case of repeat boot floor AIDS.
BUT it wasnt long before this
then a test fit like this
then some panels like this
then some paint like this
a new floor like this
and a very happy moment like this
go forth and weld!
