    Home made Snok

    looks much tidier running down the inside of the wing rather than outside as in that link. i used standard 68mm drainpipe, but instead of using drainpipe bends, i used rubber ones recycled off other cars air intakes. made fitting it easier and less chance of it ever getting damaged as there is...

    Looking at getting a Disco1. Help with wider Tyres plz

    the pic in my profile is of mine with 33/12.5/15 kumho m/t tires. it had about 2 inch lift and very minor trimming, still caught on full articulation. but in my opinion this size looks best. i'v now got the wide plastic arches and another 1.5 inch lift. really easy to do.
