Nice SJ! I'm from SE18, not too far from you. There are a couple of us lurking in and around the M25.

Welcome.

May I reccomend you fit standard shackles if you are going to drive it on the road.

There's no need to have it that high for that tyre size and I bet they make the road handling a bit interesting.

I used to go to Essex Offroad, but I think they're closed. I also go to Mud Monsters East Grinstead.
