Bonjour!

Well, my 4.0 is finally ready to hit the trail park! I just installed my IRO longarm kit and I'm very pleased with the result! All I need now is to limit dropp and compression so my tires won't get jammed in the wheel arches.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the video! :-)

I suppose I could, heck, anyone can use a locker! But my problem here is too much compression and the rear wheels get caught in the wheel arches, fender flares will help me more I think. Also, I only have a d35 so I'm really not too keen on stressing it more with a locker...

Hey Helmut!

Yes, that was me, in the end, the white XJ ended up going for scrap after one too many brutal adventures... It did end up quite battered though. However, this black one will not end up the same way!

Thanks! The track used is "Titan" by Cyrus & Distance.

Hehehe. I got a laugh out of that thread I think thats why your name sounded familiar. Its easy to bumpstop so your wheels dont get caught anymore under compression.
