Hi I'm new to the forum and new to series LR's I have just got a lightwieght picking it up tomorrow. Now for some stupid questions.

I have a Range Rover with a full set of new Grizzly Claws on it, firstly will the RR wheels fit onto the lightwieght I just wanted to try them to see if I could get enough lock on the steering, then I will have them put on the original rims.

The RR has a 200 TDI engine could this be fitted into the lightwieght with out to many mods?
The current engine is a 2.5 diesel that came out of a 90 I believe it's a good engine.

Packaging wise i think the 200 TDi is a similar size to the 2.5 N/A.  The grizzlies might well fit as the PCD is the same but the offset will be different.  You may prefer to run them on RR rims though to give better clearence.

Graham,

How do you like the Lightweight now you have it? I read it on LRUK.
