Thanks for the comments guys, The land rover is my first car and it's going to be a while yet before I get rid of it. It cops a beating when I take it off road and it keeps coming back!
I'm going to have to get something one of these days with coil springs, disc brakes and power steering though!! | | | | | 11-19-2008, 01:15 AM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Rocky Hill, CT Posts: 1,065 |

I see you have leafs... painful when offroad eh?
I usually resort to running my tyres at 10psi when i'm off road to improve traction... and also make it a hell of a lot more comfortable!!! | | | | | 11-20-2008, 01:15 AM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Rocky Hill, CT Posts: 1,065 |

Never had a problem with traction, and she was more comfortable than you'd think. I attributed that to the nissan 300zx seats I had in it. __________________
