Looks like hard work but good fun.
I was at Manby in November and it came down hard on us but wasn't deep. Ground was rock solid and a few of the more sorted trucks had been round and laid some tracks, was very slippery, as it thawed it all got very sticky.
Seen the 'clog mentioned on difflock but never seen any good pics of the site.

Amazed at how many on here are into 4x4's !
My 1st off roader looked like this when I bough it for £220 !
![](http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i10/hairyhampton/london413.jpg)
I fitted all sorts to it including Landrover rear leaf springs & RS1600i seats.
![](http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i10/hairyhampton/AstonCantlow006-1.jpg)
Nearly killed it doing this.
![](http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i10/hairyhampton/AstonCantlow017.jpg)
Sold it to make way for this.
![](http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i10/hairyhampton/AstonCantlow002.jpg)
I really miss the Shogun, it was slow, thirsty & geared to tall with 33" tyres on but it never ever let me down & I loved it.

Going to bump this up, hows your 4x4's doing?
Bought myself a 300TDi Disco, going to collect it next weekend, its partly modded but will a few bits before I go out in it, namely some tyres, 30mm spacers, snorkel, MOT, Tax and insurance lol
Its already fitted with +2" lift, wider plastic arches, CAT1 Toad, EGR replacement, Modulars, tints etc etc
Cant wait!!!!

Mines doing really well ![Big Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
From buying it as a standard L200 in November last year I have done the following:
Body lift 1.5"
Suspension lift - 6" rear and 3" front
Converted rear springs to coils from leaves
bobtailed the tub (18" out of it)
33x10x15" Maxiss Bighorn Mud tyres on 15" wellar rims
12,000 lb front winch
Modified exhaust so it exits via the tub as "stacks"
Plastic arch extensions under the OEM extensions
Waffleboards for the tub tailgate
Next on the list is to bin off the Mitsubishi 4D56 engine and gearbox and replace with a 300TDI engine and R380 box along with Discovery front and rear axles - this gives a live axle up front instead of the silly torsion bar independant system.
I also want to get a snorkel for it too, but I can't justify £350 for a bit of plastic![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/shocked.gif)

Converted rear springs to coils from leaves
bobtailed the tub (18" out of it)
33x10x15" Maxiss Bighorn Mud tyres on 15" wellar rims
12,000 lb front winch
Modified exhaust so it exits via the tub as "stacks"
Plastic arch extensions under the OEM extensions
Waffleboards for the tub tailgate
Next on the list is to bin off the Mitsubishi 4D56 engine and gearbox and replace with a 300TDI engine and R380 box along with Discovery front and rear axles - this gives a live axle up front instead of the silly torsion bar independant system.
I also want to get a snorkel for it too, but I can't justify £350 for a bit of plastic

Nice ![Big Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
I'm looking at changing my maxxiss mudders for a set of Insa Turbo Special track in 33x10.5x15" flavour (but will be about 35" with the tread depth)
Also had to put the standard tub back on as I needed the load space![Red Faced](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
And the final thing to go wrong is the wheel bearings are shagged in my back axle - had to buy a second hand axle for £150 (then £40 for van hire!) as it was cheaper than £90 a bearing then £100 for fitting in a machine shop
So with this I'll be going back to leaf springs at the rear too :/
