    I do have ACE. Its meant to free it all up a fair bit, especially on the front, though Baz your one looks like it flexing well.

    You can really see the amount of flex ACE produces. Hard to compare CAl415's and mine due to the Bilies on his and the stock as a rock setup on mine but the articlulation of his axles are very impressive

    hey guys

    ive gone from driving an old yota to my 98 disco series 1. ive noticed flex from a few shots over this site and compairing that to a few of the insane mods on cruisers and the like im wondering is it possible to get absolutly awsome flex on disco's if they are heavily modified? (i dont wanna hijack this thread so should i start another asking this question?)(and can i post a random pic of somones cruiser with awesome flex or is that not allowed? ... i cant remember where i grabbed it from.)

    If you have the money the flex will come. Check out www.rovertym.com/ for some examples, or this old thradhttp://www.aulro.com/afvb/showthread...highlight=flex though not disco specific there are a few good ones

    Don't forget the speedo recalibration and engineers certification, then inform your insurance company

    Can I get an Engineers Certificate from the workshop that fits my suspension or do I need to go elsewhere for this and who in Perth recalibrates speedos and roughly how much does it cost

    There are many trucks that completely change there rear suspension to what the D1 came from the factory with. This setup will flex a lot.

    For the front, Dobbin Engineering will manufacture a X-link for it for about $1000 and then the front is also ready to flex as much as you would like.

    Of course these are all spring, shock etc dependant.
    Cheers

    If fitted by a workshop no cert is required and i'm sure none is required for 50mm, but the 265/75s will,, you can get a speedo recalibrator from Truespeed, for $200, it has 2 settings 1 for 31s and the other for 32s up.

    Now back to the FLEX PICS of DIIs
