    How much lift to clear 33s?

    Hello, new Landy owner here

    Hi all, I am the lucky new owner of a 1986 RHD 90. It’s the 2.5 petrol motor. I know little about them as of yet, but I’m a mechanic by trade and have been an aircooled VW nerd most of my adult life, so I understand that owning and driving an old Defender doesn’t come without some work on my...
