Never mind I bought the watts linkage cross member spacers and lower shock mount from Rovertym

I hope however that the cross member spacers give me enough clearence Rovertym probibly designed them for a 3 inch lift

Any way Im sure my springs will settle to that any way

Now that is simply a stupid statement.

It was driver error while tackling an interesting track on a night run. I have photos of vehicles a lot worse off at exactly the same spot in the daylight. Because he had his vehicle set-up properly, the only damage suffered to the vehicle was a small dent the size of a 10 cent coin between the front wheel arch and the front bumper. Cars in shopping centres cause more damage.

Ok, but where's the forum with all the D2's? I'd like to see it.

For god sake man have a look at the first pic any thing would fall from that stupid angle even a stock landy what are you on the second pic I bet he come to greef for that same reason, that there is a simple case of poor driving

further more why would you try and tackle the high side when the low side looks safer that just stupid

PROCOMP shocks

You really have no idea do you.
You do not know how they ended up where they did, what the track conditions were like, or what they were attempting to achieve at the time. But somehow you feel that you can comment on other people's driving ability.

Just who do you think you are?

you feel you can judge people for example all AULRO forum members because your better then they are

but you take it upon your self to judge me but dont allow me to comment on what pic you show me

Mate what are you on give a rest go away

I have never said that what you wanted to do was not possible, only that it is not advisable. There is a big difference.

You insisted on knowing why I was not on the AULRO forum. I did not raise them at all and avoided going into detail about people on that forum. The people I did comment on, I had been out with a couple of times and had more than ample time to judge their driving ability.

I can tell who you are from your responses to date. You are a person who has driven on tracks no more difficult than what the family sedan could travel on. You liked the look of Slunnies rig and decided to copy it. You have no real idea what makes a vehicle suitable off road. It appears that you live in NSW and they closed the 4WD tracks there decades ago. You have a limited number of interesting tracks to tackle and you would be lucky to go off-road a couple of times a year.

You can have a go at me as much as you like, but you were attacking people's driving ability based on a single photo. But this is the type of person you are, you think you know everything from a single photo.

You have never debated the technicalities of what you are doing, and outside Slunnie did it, I don't believe you know.

You are simply childish. Wanting to attack the members of a forum because I would not provide the address.

GROW UP!

That's fine think what you want to think it doesn't matter I'm not claiming to be any expert never have

I have questioned the person that's important and who has achieved my goal and that's Slunnie not you, we have discussed and I have picked his brains asked questions on every point of his set up tried to elaborate and waited for his advise and yes I do like his set up hence why I want the same I dont want to a 2 inch lift then decide I want 4

I've spoke to people from USA and gathered there input

I've spoke to people from Bilstein and gathered there input

I was never after your input to if or if not it works only procomp shocks, that's all nothing more nothing less your the one that come along and flexed muscles on the topic not me

I don't know where you've been or what you've done and frankly I don't give a S##T but to state what Ive done in my 4wd interest is simply ignorant travel down tracks that a family Sadden can do, PLEASE, what kind of crap is that and to state that all the 4WD tracks in NSW have been closed, OK, Ive done a few tracks in SA and one in WA but again non of your business


you've judge others however don't allow your self to be judged nor your photo that you displayed

WHO NEEDS TO GROW UP JUST LEAVE IT ALONE I don't wish to argue with you there is no point difference of opinion that all

This is where you keep on showing how much you really know about what you are doing. You asked advice on what length shocks you need. The answer is based on the rest of the vehicle and what you are planning to do.

You wanted answers on shocks and you could not, and still cannot quote the extra length of your springs. The length of springs is also important in regard to the length of shock. Do you still reckon that the springs are 4 inches longer.

So do not ask for advice if you don't want it. If you want proper advice you need to provide sufficient information to offer that advice.

All I did was attempt to do the right thing and point out the issues with the mods you were suggesting and the legalities of those mods in the country that you live.

I have never told you what to do and that it won't work. If you want to stuff up you car, go right ahead. A 4 inch lift with 32 inch tyres will look odd as well.

I have said that you can say what you like about me. What I objected to was you making statements about the drivers of other vehicles in situations you knew nothing about. You are so full of it that you believe you can pick the best line from a photo and at the same time work out what the driver did wrong. This is how I know for certain that you have not gone on a track any harder that what would be rated as "Easy".

So if you do not want advice DON"T ASK FOR IT

[Roverhound]

So where's this web site? I'm still waiting.

[ROVERNIT]

Look we can go back and forth all day with this and at the end of the day its my 4wd and I would like a 4 inch lift and I don’t have to take any ones advice

You may not agree to the set up and that’s great your entitled to that, and it may even be fact, how ever again my money my 4wd and its my business to if or if not I want to take on your advise, again I may say boy, I should of taken that blokes advice but again my purgative

As for judging those photo either way you look at it is drivers error, and I'm not saying, nor have I said that I could have done it better how ever common sense states track impassable don’t do it, you do it and roll it, its driver error and sorry no matter who ask they will be of the same opinion and that’s 4wding it wasn’t the 4wd that drove it self it was the person behind the wheel and choices made

Again I’m not judging you or your knowledge or your experience and forgetting all that was said, your info in the future may be important and if you don’t wish to provide it that’s ok, I don’t want to have burnt bridges with any one as I don’t like that

Again I would like to close the subject as I feel it’s been of no real help or productive


the web site is

I prosume

I'm thinking he doesn't have a site. That one says ownership of a D2 is a prerequisite.
Usually if he doesn't have an answer or can't get it on an internet search he ignores the question.

Yeah you get that and thats the thing about forums there is always one that has to have is piont heard and if you dont wont to hear it all kinds of things come out

I think it is a Yahoo group thing that you have you have to have permission to join never mind its not important because if people roll there Discovery there I dont think its a place that we should know about
