    If you don't mind me asking, you said you fitted flipped rims, does that mean you just turned the rim the other way? Being a bit new to RR I had to ask , it just sounds odd.
    The Disco rims have had their centres taken out and reversed - so now the old inside of the rim is now the outside of the rim, so makes the track wider.

    I have another set that have just been done, I can take some pix of these if its going to make it clearer?

    Just wondered.
    The rear flare that goes on the door is basically a U shape, so it covers the section that has been cut out - with plenty if black sikaflex!!!

    looking good mark!

    looks like your spring rates could be a bit softer in the front.

    whats next?

    Next is the winch / winch bar and then I can fix up the springs.

    Currenlty they are Lovells Rangie V8 ones Front RFR-5 190lbs/inch and have dropped a lot since the Tdi went in.
