Course you can Jon - but it's not a commercial guide, I've written it myself. The parts are form Milners with a steering spacer from my (ahem) design. All the kit is, is 8 spacers and some longer bolts.

Don't think I have your e-mither address? EDIT - Oh yes I have. Done

Thanks LC, didn't realise it was yours. I was just curious to see what the likes of Milner were recomending that's all. I just turned some spacers and got some bolts from the local suppliers but I've never seen a bought kit.

I gave Milner my original guide to include in their kit. Don't know if they did, but my spacer definitely is in there. Hopefully, the guide is with you know. It took ages to get it to go. Having server problems. I need to send it to Simon to get it on as a sticky. Just never get to the post office to send the disc.

You can always improve on it, but you get a simple sheet with the kit (originally) that said remove bolts, put in spacers, replace with new bolts, congratulations, your car now ready you play!!

Hmm, that's detailed then.

Kit is nice, but nothing special, that's why it's actually very cheap.

You were right there Gary... Looking quite gnarly towards the end there. What a fabulous looking trip.

Hi guys just wondering if you thought my 3dr 90 would be capable of this kind of thing,, maybe it could do with a few mods, body lift and some chunkier tyres.

Hello green90 yes your 90 series is more than capable greenlaning, keep an eye out for future events.

The trip looks fantastic, any chance you might be going again? Or anyone else fancy a crack at it?

I don't think I'll be going this year but if anyone else does I'd check the state of the routes after all that rain they had in the Lake District, it might have affected some of them particularly the last lane. Very nice area to spend a few days in.
