But the fronts are really goodfitted new calipers to the rear of the 6x4 couldn't get any fluid out

Thanks DT, You’re right, 235/85 which is apparently 31.7”. So I probably made a mistake calculating the speed difference, which is comforting. However, I am having issues with the arch liners. Did you use spacers on yours?What size are they!
with 32s (which is pushing it a bit inside standard arches) is about 2mph @30 gets more as speed increases maybe 4 mph at 70, on the autobahn would increase more again every sort of 10mph gets further out. So long as you take your time you should be fine I’ve never had an issue. With the arch liners I had to adjust the stops on the hub slightly to stop you turning too far and rubbing (usually rusted solid) still catches the radius arm now and again but only if turning sharp in reverse for some reason, once they wore down a bit was not such an issue. Can handle nose compression and steering angle but not too much of both at once if that makes sense? Body lift should help that
No spacers on mine sit flush with vehicle. I wouldn’t want spacers with the weight of the tyres.
) so constant lift. ??
Reversing?
It does, I catch the nobbles of the insas on the radius arms sometimes but only on lock in reverse

Fine going forwards.
Castor maybe?
@Salisbury Nick We want pics of these new boots

Ah. Coils. that will make a big difference. Mine grate the liners at about 20 to 30 deg, when the diagonal between the inside front edge and outer rear edge create the maximum diameter and snag the liner. At full lock they are ok.No spacers on mine sit flush with vehicle. I wouldn’t want spacers with the weight of the tyres.
Mine are 31.6 x 10.4 which is a tad too wide ideally but manageable
Yours work out at 31.7 x 9.3 so I’m guessing it’s fact I have coils (shhh
No motorway height for me.....
My tyres wouldn’t fit
The lift and bigger wheels were fitted all together as a set from a gonner p38. Any bigger tyre the lift wouldn’t have been enough. Over the years it’s sagged a bit similar new tyres probably wouldn’t fit anymore.

Cheers. EAS currently not working. Relying on a manual bypass system. However, yes, the kit comes with new bump stops for just that eventuality, however, I am far from convinced they are sufficient as when i reconnected the eas module recently it dropped to the bump stops but the tyres fouled the liners.The lift and bigger wheels were fitted all together as a set from a gonner p38.

I know the bit of liner you mean wonder how they would react to heat gun adjustment? Plenty of room behind them just need to be in more an inch
By the way check your OE jack in the boot still works, mine didn’t but I can’t lower the suspension.
So how do you manage with EAS? You got giant bumpstops preventing too low a setting? Or hoping it doesn’t beep, drop and rip your wings off as they pop
