HI All
thanks for all your help so far, I have test driven a number of trucks now LJ73s and BJ73s and am actually leaning towards to the LJ. They definelty arent fast but the rythymn of them is quite nice... and they seem a lot more perking than the Series 2a Land Rover I had previously and very similar to a defender 90..
Anyhow, i am a bit confused with the lift and wheel/tyre options. I have had a good look on here but I am still not sure
Lift
It sounds like 60cm/2" is an improvement? is that right, does it change the way the truck drives significantly?
Which brand is recommended or are they all pretty much the same? is there anything to look out for?
Wheels/Tyres
From my reading it sounds like too big a tyres really slows the LJ73 down.
it seems 33" is too big
31" was standard ? is this correct?
so 32" is really the only option, and then it comes down to wheels to suit the tyres
is there a half way solution where you can have taller tyres but thinner? or is the height that really causes the engine to struggle?
sorry if these are noobie questions..
Any prictures of lift/ and tyres packages would be great ( as long as they include the specs, i found there are lots of nice looking trucks, but not as much information on the lift/tyres on them)
Cheers
Chris
