Following the Rangies cheap MOT (£0.18 for a bulb) I decided to buy some new arches for it, as below  8)

Next is a new winch bumper to house 8274  :twisted:
Did everyone see that?  Because I will NOT be doing it again!

They suit the old girl really well. I think they will have to go on my wish list.

Remove lots of wing with angle grinder 8)
Seriously, no mods to fit.  Just offer up, draw around the inner & cut out 5mm above the line....then drill & screw on with self tappers  8)
I have tidied up the inner arches too.  :roll:

Then fit 34" Simex Jungle Trekkers :twisted:

One thing I did have to do was relocate the wing repeaters as can be seen in photo.

Yep I went for Roccia when I needed arches for the 90, superb quality and Ive not managed to damage em yet, despite some very hard use, just wish my roof and wings were as durable as the Roccia arches :)
