Title: new arch kit for defenders
Post by: gecko on April 08, 2006, 10:11:25

after fitting 36" tyres to the 90 and putting a 3" lift on there  the wheels when articulting were still fowling the arches so after a bit of thinking i came up with a new arch kit  ats still flexable so if i was to hit a tree  or something thay would just bend out the way  

also help to stop the mud flying up all over the place  have a look for your self


thanks jason

Never had a problem with just trimming standard arches with just 1.5"lift and 35" Simex's. The last 20% of each lower arch needs trimming...

Anyone tried JEEP wheelarch extensions.
Ive got a set fitted to the zook. 6 inches of coverage each side, made from ABS plastic.
Good and tough, and look good
Just bolt or screw into the bodywork
