Yea He has the Transfer case spacer in however there still are some Vibes...

I have seen the spacer's that drop the transfer case/ and crossmember... they look about 20mm thick.... (didnt have a real good look at them but its definatly lowered)


Re: the Disco's they are Fouling on the actual arm of the Disco not the "Pin"
does this still mean there the wrong way around????
Yes it could be the wrong way around but it doesnt really matter Id play around with installing the bottom on the outer and the top on the inner or vica versa til you get it in way that it doesnt hit the tyre, thats what I did.

I would only go up to 33's with 6'' or more.. Thats my plan once i get my V8- And i will Cut into metal to squeeeeeze them in.... Its a tight Fit with 32's

You'll see
Thanx for that, will stick with the 32" then.

Damn so the longarm plate will lower the transfercase as well so what drilling do you need to do other than the 4 bolts on the crossmember.

With the discos defintely adjust trackbar if only one side is affected and I have the swaybar the same way, I only disconnect the bottom on and cable tie it to the swaybar and to the hook I made up.

As for trimming for 33"s,guys in US often adjust control arms longer & only trim plastic or edge of b/bar.
Im at 4+" & have no vibes with only 20mm t/case spacer,I think vibes are prob from front arm castor adjustment rather than rear.
Is rear longarm to ? or short arm with a-frame spacer.

Does anyone know what the front castor should be?

So whats it like on the road? Does only having one front upper CA make the car feel "loose" or tend to "squirm" under heavy braking?

All reports say that the longarm setup is more comfortable on road and heaps better offroad than short arm setup.
