dollywobbler · 27-10-2012, 13:29

Howdy and welcome. I do a lot of laning in mine with no mods whatsoever. I'd tackle the lanes first and then see what you need. They're very capable!

Winding up the front suspension is dead easy. Did it myself last week. Have a Search in the tech section now you've paid up.

Welcome, and congrats on buying the best 4x4 by far... i have a Mav and its fantastic. Its called Beast, i also have a Terrrano called MistyBlue but she is having her MOT right now and then im going to start modding her too.

I lifted the Mav with a 2" body lift, its not hard but you do need to know what to do. Plenty of good advice in here. Give me a shout if you want any advice on the body lift.
