Anyone running a set of their CVs? - I believe they do axles as well. The blurb on their site sounds pretty convincing and I'd love to know if someone on here has used their products in anger. By anger I mean big tyres, lockers and use and abuse off road. |

I haven't used them before , however a quick look at the site and it seems that those folks have the upper hand on the stuff. I didn't see any price info but I'm sure they're worth what they charge. Are there any other options out there anyway, I guess maybe Atlantic British or Rovers North ? Good luck ! |

Thom, I was going to say that new to Discos/Rovers does not mean new to wheeling in general...then I noticed Mr Good's handle reads 'Foreign to Four Wheel Drive'! Maybe he does a lot of trailering? Maybe? How's that for post #2! |

my comment was that someone brand new was saying something he never tried was worth what they charge. my comment was all about caution, as in sounds like a advertisment.a new unknown name shows up and names a product and another new unknown endorses the product.I'd say sounds fishy...but I am muskyman as far as your second post...welcome to dweb |

Jeez you Americans are paranoid! Its not like I haven't filled out my profile. Why have you bothered posting if you haven't used the aforementioned CVs either?! It's a quiet thread so I suppose someone has to post on it, but I only asked for opinions because I haven't found much on the site about CV unlimited by searching. |

"Jeez you Americans are paranoid!" Unbelievable that you would feel qualified to classify the hundreds of millions of people in this country based off of a few posts on a BBS about Land Rovers. Has to seem ridiculous even to yourself when looking back on it, I hope? For some reason even at my young age this is something that I feel very strongly about. You cannot accurately classify or stereotype a country, even your own, in this day and age. The world is too diverse. Granted, I am well aware that you most likely posted in sarcasm, and I will take it as that. But showing up as a new member and trashing our people, or any for that means, struck me as a little out of key. Now retiring from the soap box. |

I don't care where any of you are from. I'm in Jacksonville, FL, which everyone will tell you is on another planet. |

ok james the Utahdog from florida? I made no coment on cvunlimited.com ,all I questioned was why someone that admitted to not having tried them thought that they were sure they must be worth what they charge. you can call me Paranoid all you want, I just call them like I see them. If some new name popped up and said "i have run them for 30k now and been to hell and back" I would have just passed right by and posted nothing. sorry it bugs you James, but I will continue to post where I please |

too many guys named James on this thread! Muskyman, My Dog's name is Utah...I sprung him from death row while I was in college in Tampa...and on an 'Out West' kick. Moved to Boulder for a while (which is why I get all teary eyed when you guys start talking about wheeling in the Sourdough/Jamestown area) Now I'm stuck back in FL, driving 6 hours to all the good trailheads. grrr |

Good post , Cliff. Good catch, Muskyman. James(Greenmeanie) - as a 21 yr. old student in Scotland, you seems to believe the vile spewage of liberal rags like "The Guardian", or Scotlands equivalent. Yes, all citizens of the U.S. are paranoid cowboys with itchy trigger fingers who drink too much and talk too loud and have too much money. Like it or not, anyone not Muslim - and the West in particular, is a fair target for the Islamo-facists. As the LATEST proof, I give you the arrest of a terrorst cell around London that had stored over 1000 lbs.(453 kg) of ammonium nitrate in a garage. Mixed with diesel in the right proportion, just as effective as dynomite. I'm sure they were just planning to remove a few old stumps from near Buckingham Palace. Or remove a few Scotch distillerys. But, if your paranoid comment was not a serious post, then you already knew that. |

I do not presume at my young age to classify a nation or stereotype the people in it. It would however seem that my post was taken rather too seriously. As a newbie I perhaps shouldn't post about such things at all and I certainly didn't intend anyone to start posting about terrorism although you are kinda proving my point eric! (JOKE) Oh and I don't read newspapers. Grovelling apologies all round! So..... no one got CV UnLtd. stuff then!!!!! |
