cheers guys, thats one less thing to worry about before my trip. I'm not impartial to a bit of mud splatter :)

Hey guys, sorry cant start new thread so have to ask here, I'm a newbie and just need to know what the deal with arches and wide tyres is. Is it legal that just the tread of the tyre is covered by the arch whilst the round sidewall of the tyre may protude from under the arch? I have these...

oh your good, I cant keep up with the wit on here

Did I say I thought it would fit as standard? Do you know what the word customise means?

Hey guys, anyone ever heard of anyone try to fit a Disco centre console into a Defender? I was thinking of trying to customise one so it fit nicely under my Raptor dash.. Any info greatly appreciated

Thats nice.. still need to figure out if the Disco centre console would fit.. Its the console that goes around the gear stick yeah? Ive already got the Raptor, I dont need links to it

I got 35" Baja Claws, yet to fit them.. cant wait :)

yes, have you ever heard of anyone trying this before?

Hey guys, sorry to hijack thread but does anyone know if I could customise a standard Disco centre console to fit a Defender? Already fitting a Raptor dash, just thought it might be nice to try to combine it with centre long cubby console such as the disco one. cheers

Cheers guys, glad I asked before shelling out on rubber. I looked up the 'real' sizes of the Baja Claws and couldnt find details on the 35"s but the 33"s size up at 32.70'' tall approx, so I imagine it'll be a similar difference with the 35"s. Yet another question.. What do I do about the...

Ha, thought for a sec you were suggesting driving the tyres till they'd rubbed the body down themselves. I aint bought them yet, just trying to get an idea of how much work they'll be, and how long the vehicle will be out of action :)

Thats the news I was hoping for! Thanks :) When you say trim the arches, I'm imagining trimming away the actual bodywork the arch currently attaches to and raising the existing arch. Then ideally getting extended arches for legality. Is this what you mean? How many inches of body work am I...

Yeah thats what I thought initally but I'm sure I read people fitting 33" without lift. Does a 4" lift entail more than just switching to bigger springs? (ie shocks, brake lines, steering etc) cheers

Hi Guys, Anyone know specifically the lift required on a Defender County 110 for the following; 33" x 12.5 x 15 Mickey Thompson Baja Claws 35" x 12.5 x 15 Mickey Thompson Baja Claws I've heard the 35" will require lift of at least 2" and cutting away bodywork around arches. I already...

Hey Carpy, Your pics have sold the Baja Claws to me over the Cooper Discoverer's :) One question though, did you fit the 33" without any lift/spacers? Where did you get hold of them and for how much? I might go up to 35"s and hopefully get away with just a 2" lift. Does anyone know if I need...

I really need some grills too for my 220mm spotlights, does anyone know where you can buy them?? I've tried eBay and google :( I was thinking of trying speaker grills even, what do you think? Round Loudspeaker Grilles : Coverings & Grilles : Maplin Electronics
