I see they have some stuff on ebay. Their show vehicle has a bodylift which sounds interesting, as well as readium arms, rear links and a custom watts linkage. The fact that they seem to only be on ebay makes me skeptical, and that they claim 30" of wheel travel but show it with rancho shocks. anyone know anything about these guys?

Seems very knowledgeable about D2's. The radius arms, rear links and watts linkage are custom made from chromally tubing. I would like some input from people who have seen it or know of them before I spend $800.   Aaron Owens (Aaronowens) Member Username: Aaronowens Post Number: 69 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2004 - 06:06 pm:    Interesting. Decent travel in the rear but the front doesnt look like it is stuffing as well.   Chris Browne (Chris_browne) Senior Member Username: Chris_browne Post Number: 639 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2004 - 06:07 pm:    Odd that apart from ebay each time this link comes up nobody fesses up to have bought from them. You'd be much better off going with a company with a recognized track record such as Rovertym.   Craig Kobayashi (Koby) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Koby Post Number: 1057 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2004 - 06:23 pm:    I recognize some SAGGING! Who knows, these may be good parts. Sometimes no news is good news.   Rob Davison (Nosivad_bor) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Nosivad_bor Post Number: 1606 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2004 - 06:47 pm:    dunno. kind of expensive. http://www.stores.ebay.com/rovertekparts/plistings/list/all/dept0/page2.html?dir =-1&col=2&sotimedisplay=2 price on the oil cooler hoses looks good. i suspect they haven't sold many kits yet. i see no advantage to betting on them. rd   Rick Neff (Lostinboston) Senior Member Username: Lostinboston Post Number: 300 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2004 - 09:06 pm:    Thanks for the input. I was hoping one of the californians out there has at least seen them at a meeting or offroad event or show. I'll hold off for now.   Jerry (Discovery1) Member Username: Discovery1 Post Number: 48 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Monday, February 16, 2004 - 01:07 am:    Hi: I called them as I live in San Francisco and I believe they are just an automotive shop who specializes in Land rover. Unfortunately, I did not have a chance to check them out yet.
