Hmm think I know where I would go :shock:

A bit more reasonable, but for the same price you can get off road rate shocks from Dave for the same or a bit less :wink:

Been mega busy the last couple of months so sorry things havn't really progressed much :oops:

Hopefully get a bit more stuck in when I get back from holiday.

However have been having a thought & chat with the Company that make the spacers for me about two other products that could be outsourced to them if there's any interest as the bigger the orders I can place with them, the better the discount I could negotiate. :D

1. First idea was in relation to the A series SWB and the factory option of the extended wheel arches. It would be possible to mass produce these in a Black ABS Plastic and probably have a retail price of £120 - £140 per set. Would people be interested ? Only down side is that they would need to see, measure, scan an original set so they could be "reproduced" accurately. So the million dollar question is, is there anyone out there with a set that I could borrow for a week or so or know of anyone selling a second hand set at a sensible price ?
2. Would anyone be interested in Plastic (ABS) rear side windows for the SWB A Series ? Somthing that was a direct bolt in swap that would give it more of a commercial vehicle look (bit like you see in the Defenders / Discoverys, etc) would obviously help keep prying eyes out of the boot / load area and should be a bit more resliant than the standard glass when offraod.

Read on here not long ago that the rear diff covers are now no longer available. Not so much a mod, but would help some guys out I'm sure if they could be made up and made available via FOG. Just a thought. :wink:
Someone mention laning? Just tell me when and where!
