thinking about it mike, what offset are your current 16" rims? yokohama and bridgestone both do a nice all terrain in 215/65R16 maybe you should look at those? Scott runs the bridgestones (D693's i think) on his very quick lifted liberty and they have been excellent. He runs 16" GT forester alloys w...

For your liberty, seriously look at something with a wider offset than standard liberty rims. Otherwise your tyres will rub on the chassis rail at full lock. I am using 15x6 forester steelies which are +48 offset. With these rims, the tyres do not rub at all. I also like the look of them as an offro...

Can you elaborate steve?

Is the speedo on the output shafts meaning the lower diff ratio doesnt affect it?

Lower diff ratios - auto transmission

With all the current work being done on lowering diff ratios and low range gearsets in manual boxes, I have started thinking about modifying my auto. I currently i have an EJ22 lib with a 4.11 AWD auto. The rear diff is an open 4.11. I have access to a dead 4.444 turbo box for parts, and 4.444 visco...

I ended up buying the wrangler ATR's. So far i really like them. Its amazing how different the car feels on teh beach when you actually have some tread. I also scared myself a bit on a steep gravel slope i always play on, I usually start spinning about half way up and go no further, with these on it...

Hayman reece style towbar adaptors - do they exist?

I will soon be fitting a towbar to my Gen1 liberty wagon. Unfortunately the only option is a standard 2 bolt tongue style bar. What I would like to be able to do is bolt up an adaptor to this that will accept the smaller hayman reece style tongues that the subaextreme bars use. This way i can fit a ...

good to see you have made a start mate. LCD: you have a few options. I would recommend a 7" widescreen as they are easy to fit but still have enough resolution to be useful. Your choices are: Xenarc - best quality but have to source form the USA and are expensive Lilliput - supposedly not as reliabl...
