You need more ground clearance to stop it catching on the ruts. Best get bigger springs and body mount spacers made

I fitted Monroe Adventure to my LWB 3.0. It tows 2t on a regular basis with no problems, granted I don't do any "serious" off-roading, but it gets a bit of use as a shoot wagon in the winter and has some crappy tracks and field edges to deal with and handles them with no problems.

Been back in today to see Rob & Heidi and Kobi the Husky

He's sorted me out a treat, my flexi is blowing just a little bit on my front downpipe I've had a spare pipe off James but as my truck has had a Powerflow system fitted they have messed with the front downpipe to suit the new system so a standard terrano downpipe won't go onto my truck now



I dropped both in at lunch to see what he could do and left them with him. An hour later and he'd rang me back to tell me he'd found a flexi section to suit the diameter of my current pipe and it was the same length

To top it off, it was cheaper than the ones on eBay I thought I'd get another turbo side gasket too, still got a brand new one for the middle section side



I think we're about to form a beautiful relationship with this outfit
Can you say what the part number and price are on that bit Zac, Suz's car's flexi has gone and the rest of the exhaust is still silver, so if I could just replace that bit, it would be a lot cheaper, and less work hopefully.

Now I've been fortunate enough not to have had any problems with Milners and I now wish to purchase a poly bush kit for the rear axle.
Milners sell the complete kit plus the panhard bushes for £99, which includes £6.50 postage.
This place sells the same kit but minus the panhard bushes for £134.50 with free delivery.
So in this instance I've got to go back to Milners, haven't I?

That is a bit of a price difference, but if you don't ask you don't get, give them a call and say you've spoken to me and you're from the forum and see what they can do for you

The flexi is made my Klarius and the part number is FRP13K A60197

Did you ever fit this in the end Zac?

I got one for Suz's car, but where ever I position the rear clamp, it bangs against the cross member when the engine is running. Looks like the only way to have enough clearance is to weld it in place. but as I then have to remove the whole front assembly, I might as well buy the complete assembly ready made.

It's on the truck now and works a treat, I did find that at idle sometimes there was a slight rattle somewhere, it turned out that I just had to spin one of the clamps around as it was catching on the front prop

It's been fine since

Cheers.... I need to basically lift Suz's exhaust up so it sits higher under up, nearer the body floor pan, but I can't see any way to adjust it. The "U" part of the clamp only has about 5mm of clearance above the cross member, and as it is, it runs through the mounting on the gearbox, so if I raised it any higher, it would be above that mount.

Mine will be different to where yours is as my front downpipe has been modded due to the Powerflow bits
