No mention of spring relocation cones ???  :wink:  :?

David, where's the pictures of your new tyres??


Only thing I've noticed is the link to Classified Add thingy has gone from the home page.

And I've got a new pair of pants.... perhaps this has affected the forum???

More non-Land Rover products on here too....

Or is this post a 'hidden' message to a point which I'm completely missing??

see dangerous things those cones - at least their reason for being is now evident, they are there to make a noise.
Thanks for clearing that up Ian!

You have probably slipped through a slight rift in the space time temporal fabric and have entered a parallel universe.

This can often be accompanied by feelings of deja vu. :(bigshock):

In saying that... my mates 90" ( www.550-spyder.co.uk or see www.gon2far.co.uk ) wouldn't have anywhere as much travel if the spings didn't dislocate... (plus his spring relocate quietly!!!)

The only alternative would be to have very soft and very long springs....

However, although looking impressive, as mentioned before, I'm still unsure to the advantage of the spings becoming dislocated...

Note: I am not trying to start the hole dislocation cone debate again!!!

He's online at the moment, according to AOL 'buddy'/Instant Message.
