Just a quickie rear bump stops with no 1in middle seats and boot empty with over 3/4 of a tank of fuel on level ground how far a way is it from the axle it's a lwb 2.7tdi terrano with standard suspension

Yeh, more articulation

Yeh, more articulation

how hard are they to remove, does the wheels not hit the arch?

2 bolts either side very easy

My tyres now hit the top side of the wheel arch or the inside depending on what articulation is going on.

Obviously wheels don't hit unless driving over really uneven ground so speed is slow, it's not even rubbed through the waxoil yet lol

Road driving makes no odds or fast offroad driving, as the type of terrain that would cause u to hit tyre to body is axle twisting, low box, 1mph stuff

Have you still got them - one of mine is missing and the other is broken and it's the type of thing the Spanish mot clowns would fail it on. If you have I will buy them from you.

Sorry, that last message should have been attached to Stinka's post!

Got one mate, and I cut it down. Would be ok probably if u cut other side to match ...

Don't know if the Spanish mot'ers would accept cut down ones, they seem to make it up as they go along e.g. my daughter's old Lada Niva passed with the wipers operated by a piece of string inside the car, but a friend of hers Clio failed because she had those push-on door edge protectors, the ones with the built in reflectors!
Thanks for replying though.
