hi all im danny im from glentham lincs . im just about to start building a stage1 v8 on a 90" chassis from bottom to top got a 3.5 on stormburgs chassis is 2"lift with shocks and fully polly bushed will get some photos if i ever get out this house snowed in

a whole few miles down the road from me (Corringham)
wouldn't rebuilding a V8 90 be easier than shortening a stage 1?

[danny1979]

well you know what its like you have to have a good challange done one or two landys before but never had a v8 if you ever need any parts give us a shout i have a good mate that only breaks landrovers

[danny1979]

sorry just read it properly yes it should be

[disco2hse]

Could be an interesting time building a short Stage 1, but there were no 90's were there? Weren't there only 18 88" models ever built?

[danny1979]

think you could be right with that one

there were no 90" stage 1;s no (think there were 30 something 88's)
but LR built a 90V8, obviously coil sprung.
Would have though an 88 a better place to start,, at least the chasiss was meant for leafs, fitting them to a 90 chassis could be fun

[danny1979]

im not putting it on leaf springs going to leave it on coils it a better ride thats one reason for me doing it

understandable
but then it really is a V8 90 when your done
still be fun to do

p.s the chap you know who breaks LR's Amazon 4x4 by chance?

[danny1979]

no i am good mates with danny but its a chap called paul robinson
