Richard,

what do you consider rapid? I'm running 18/15psi front/rear on my 90 for highway use (lower for the mud) and the ETs have now covered over 15000 miles. Fronts are now noticably down but rears still look good for as much again!

Hi, what pressure are you running on the road?

I have found anything under 33 PSI for the ET1s lead to rapid tyre wear on the road.

Cheers

Yes, I've got ARBs front and rear.

I never use the front locker if using more than half a turn of lock to save strain on the front axle.

I have a lot of faith in genuine LR CV's. Funny thing is people say they are weak, but mine are the smaller 300TDi 90 ones and I've never had a problem.

As I ...

Re: shock absorbing drive flanges from ashcroft.

Dave at Ashcrofts

I personally think these would be a good idea and worth the £240 a set if they save shafts.

In the last year I have broken two front drivers side (ashcroft) shafts. I have not managed a CV yet as I only use origional LR ones.

I still use the ashcroft shafts as they have been ...
