Hello, Newbe from Cornwall

Post by cwilts » Wed Feb 13, 2013 5:49 pm

Hi everyone, as per title, newbe here from Cornwall. Bought a totally standard Samurai 413 2 months ago and just been tinkering with her since, mainly for shooting, but the terrain here is pretty steep.
I will post pics if I am allowed to.

I have changed the standard wheels and tyres to 7.50 x 16 Kingpin hi-landers, removed the front bumper, put on a set of Add a Leaf's and a pair of 8" spots on the bull bar.

Looking for a winch bumper, internal roll cage, removable hard top, and in due course I will lift her again (possibly with new springs as they are solid at the moment) and/or lift shackles, replace the shocks, wheel spacers etc.

Unfortunately it seems like I have the bug already!

For suspension most of us on this site doesn't like the lift shackles as the make ur springs sag quicker
Best call llama 4x4 as they are the best UK seller and gives it a comfterble ride to

That would be great Daz...... didn't think shackles would be too bad as the Add a Leaf's have made the springs rock solid and the shackles might help soften them up quicker. Llama supplied the Add a Leafs, just can't justify the £400+ for lifted parabolics.

Cheers Dan, roof mounted means I can't drive AND shoot! LOL

Cheers Daz, I saw that and was my very first post asking about it. If the price is right, the distance is do able. Can't it be sent on a pallet though?
