    Rancho

    Thanks for the feedback guys, so for the price they are at, they look a good buy. Roughtrax do front and rear shocks both 2 inch extended for £49 and £47.50 each respectively. They also do 20% stronger springs. Can anyone say if these would leave the LC at same height or leave it sitting...

    Rancho

    Hello all. Has anyone ever used rancho suspension? I was on roughtrax4x4 website and saw them. They do standard and +2" shocks. Just wondering if they are any good. Would 20%stronger springs give a bit of a lift? My cuz seems to think he got 1.5 to 2 inches on his pajero. Thanks again!!

    South-west Ireland

    It was up a mountain just north of Caherdaniel/Derrynane area. I wasn't too sure about the legality of it either :shh: ,but I imagine the top of the mountain would be common grazing kind of land, and one can always plead ignorant and be friendly and apologise. My girlfriends parents were up...

    Power point in Boot - Whats the best way to do this?

    What said there sounds good to me, It's what I'd do. Just remember to add a neg off ur main battery to have enough current flow back! Lots of people forget this. Also, if you decide to use 1 cable from the positive and use chassis as a huge negative, Make sure you get good contact, maybe even...
