www.gwynlewis4x4.co.uk going for the challange set-up.
Nope I reckon the truck is now not going to be ready untill mid-september.
After talking it through with Jim at Gigglepin I'm going for a challange set-up, so a few bits to source and bit of modding needed to the chassis.
Alright Chap,
how's you.
Yep truck is starting to take shape. Doing Gwyn Lewis suspension and arb lockers this week whilst it still in it's current state.
I'm keeping schtum about this place so nice not to have the infighting and back biting of the other place.
Not sure what hat's your on about but have you looked on the land rover gear pages?

On my 90 diff lock is always a bitch.
Usually solved by releasing the clutch to biting point in 1st or 2nd then waggleing the hi - low in the general direction of lock.
Decided though on the re-build arb's are being fitted :D
Sticking a disco block in a 90 isn't a big job and has been done by many succesfully at home.
£750 does seem's about right, when I was going down this route I was given an estimate of £550 plus parts so wouls have been around the same.
Have a search on http://forums.lr4x4.com/ theres a how...
Hi Chris,
thats the one. Jim Gigglepin got back from his holidays, that's who's yard the bits are in, and we went through a plan and just kept adding bits.
But still it should be a kick ass truck when it gets finished.
Not bad mate,
looks like the rebuild has changed direction. Instead of going for what I had with a different power plant were now going for a challange spec truck.
Should be fun :o
Hi there,
I'm Tim from Sevenoaks down in Kent.
Have a 90 Truck Cab that isn't very well at the moment and is being re-built, new chassis, 300Tdi rather than the 2.5 petrol, Gwyn Lewis challenge suspension etc etc etc.
New and old together
Adz,
as your local you may already know this link. It's sort of up to date but as we found out on Saturday it's best checking all the routes.
Anyhow here's the link to the kent definitive ish map http://extranet7.kent.gov.uk/explorekentgis/map.aspx
