)

Nice looking libby. Did that bumper come that color from ARB or did you paint it to match the flares?

I’ve always liked the rear tire “cover”. Wish I could get one.

i cant being to express my anger that you can have a 6speed CRD and we can not.. a 6 speed with 215BHP & 396ft-lb of torque would be awesome in a KJ!

Yes.... it is!! :twisted:

hehe

Has a tendency to catch you by surprise though, a little too heavy on the gas in 1st or 2nd when pulling out of a junction and its real easy to get some sideways action going on! In 3rd too in the wet!!

Sorry, no....

I took her to a rally specialist in Sunderland who offer bespoke remapping. They pulled the existing map off and sent it off to be modified. The modified file was uploaded to the ECU, then we got it on the Dyno

The whole process took about 2 hours
