    4dr flares

    Hi peoples,
    just finnished 2'' spring lift in my disco and fitted 31 10.5 r15. the heavy duty springs have cured my body roll woes.
    now to the real question. where can i get 4dr flares from? i am wanting to cut the rear doors for larger tyres so the fitting of flares is a must.
    thanks all.







    at least my dints arn't from shopping trolleys!

    Hi tracker,
    yes I did, well its 90% fixed. my front suspension was that saged that the body had forced the diff across. now with the 2'' spring lift we are nearly back to normal. pass side tyre could go in another 1/4'' and i'de be happy.
    thankfully it was a simple fix.

    Depending on where you are try Rangie spare's.




    They have a set of tuff looking flare's for the disco's
    But there are probaly some others that do something the same.

    Cutting is involved but the finished job looks great when it is done right.

    I am planning on a set for myself just as soon as I have worn done my current tyre's.

    Bring on the 33` muddie's

    Moving the diff accross

    My Son's Range Rover has the same problem with the front diff.

    I have been told by a person who races R/Rs that they pack the chassis bracket that holds the rod from the Diff to the Chassis which forces the diff accross.

    He told me it was a design fault and is not noticed until you put on wide wheels.

    I was told that you could buy this packer from some after market Land Rover agents.

    Howdy DiscoWhite,

    Sorry I can't be very specific (I was not really listening to the bloke talkin' to me at the time) but he mentioned a place over at Redcliffe that does work on his Defender Extreme and said they do a lot of LandRover work, try some dealers in your area, they might know of the mob.

    Again sorry it's not specific.
