Forever trying to flex

[AlexD333]

Always trying to take little shots when I can :lol

It's getting to the point that i really do struggle to get out of the truck now..

Pictures never do justice :rolleyes:

[Dynamics]

38 degrees... Cool.

[AlexD333]

38 degrees... Cool.

Whats the limit?? :doh

[exosteve]

ask makitfit

[Fez_uk]

Thats not flexing

[Dynamics]

I believe its about 45 degrees before things start to go light.

All depends on your truck balance point though... :eek:

[R1cho]

agree with fez thats not flexing thats tilting

[AlexD333]

agree with fez thats not flexing thats tilting

Yeah, tilting then, couldn't think of appropriate title :lol

I'm still interested in degree limit? (ish) :nenau

Edit: oh just seen the 45 degree angle.

[Barrbeast]

Yeh I know the Trol's 48 degrees so 45 on the Terrano sounds about right since it's a bit narrower.

Let's be honest your backside is probably going to give up long before either of those angles are reached :lol

[Fez_uk]

dare you to try it ;)

[firebobby]

Alex, strap an old mattress to one side and see how far you can go before lift off :lol:lol

[AlexD333]

dare you to try it ;)

oyyyy, dont tease me :kissy

my arse was getting a little twitchy, and i struggled like buggery to get out the terrano too :lol

The mattress idea is a goodun! :augie

[Barrbeast]

dare you to try it ;)

Only if you're there to catch the trucks if they roll :lol

[AlexD333]

*vomits at the thought*

[Sweety]

But less on Alex's motor as it's lifted & next week Alex will put up a pic of his truck totally on it's side:lol

[makeitfit]

I don't mind trying it :D
A couple tie straps and a winch and away we go :cool:

[exosteve]

my erm tilt angle is reduced due to the higher center of gravity with a 5" lift:augie

anyone got a spare matress :lol

and where could I get an anglometer:nenau

[makeitfit]

String and a protractor , all of about 25p :D
You wont need a mattress, just tip to the point of balance with a check strap :thumb2

better shot of mine.would probably go more but I couldn't get any further up the steps because of a pipe that runs along the ground.

Rear axle? Might just be the vacuum hose.

Tbh it's not really needed for greenlaning.

[spinna]

I think its the part under the bonnet that's broke, but the pipe into the diff has rotted aswell so need to think of a way to re-attach the pipe.
