View Full Version : Hi Im new ere
Hi everyone I'm new here and dare I say it but I've been a keen 4x4 off roader for many years using a Landrover 90 then son number one came along , not a problem can fit three in a 90 then son number two , now then by the time wifey had loaded all there bits and bobs in you guessed it no room left for passengers , so I bought a Land Rover Discovery , and some lift kit and BFG MTs Snorkel etc and we had lots of fun but I just got chesed off with always having to fix something or other and never remember having anywhere near the problems with any of the japanese 4x4s I'd owned in the past so opted for a 2001 Nissan Terrano Sport seven seater rather like driveing a Rolls Royce after the LandRovers and was wondering if anyone out there has fitted a lift kit to a Terrano and Snorkel etc I'd be Interested to hear from you either through the forum or by text message to my mobile 07742 968 315 , and is it worth paying a £10 for full membership would like to hear your feedback cheers Ian (Filey North Yorkshire)

Hi Thomas
We have a tin tent thats why the need for a 4x4 might see you next time your in filey can show you some good green lanes to have a ride around I've paid my tenner so lets see what mods can be done to a terrano without going to silly.
Kind Regards Ian

ok sure guys wont mind me name dropping but some of the terranos to
look at include extreme's, elty0001's and terranosaurus's all pushing the
envelope nicely. makeitfit too plenty more too.
recall opinion was 31" is most without some sort of lift but front flaps
and a little trimming or torsion windup will be needed.
thanks for the offer of the lanes likely be over again around easter or
early spring. determined going to walk the brigg as havent since i was
a kid for the rock pools!

Hiya JCB, think you need to contact Terranosaurus but chances are he'll reply anyway as he often has stock of the lift springs and body kits:thumb2
