Default kMA LIGHT BAR

Just got my KMA Fabrications light bar, what a great service they gave, even incorporated an interlocking system with screws in order to ship it cheaper over to me. in all it cost 520 USD shipping included + 36 Swiss francs for TVA and Custom duties but with out paint a friend painted it satin black for me, Now just waiting for the small rectangle KC light that will hand below the bar.

Finally got round to taking a few pics..........

left 255/85x16 BFGKM2, middle 35/12.50x18 Toyo MT, right 35/12.50x17 BFGKM2








Defender 235/85x16 thrown in as a 32" comparison


They are leaning slightly which makes the tyres look bigger to the right but the Toyo is definitely a tad taller and much wider being squarer at the sidewall/treadface juncture

Only on Roman roads. If I get chance I will bolt them onto mine before my mate collects them. I'm sure however it needs spacers or the correct offset wheels.

Nick, you have plenty of time to play about with them. I will come and fetch them on Monday morning now. Everytime I empty the trailer, the gardener fills it back up with hedge cuttings!
I'm certain the Sahara rims need to be run with spacers though.

I just got home from uni for Easter holidays so I finally got around to dynamat-ing the soundbar- got rid of all the rattles and now has a lot more bass behind it.

Also my front left headlight had somehow filled up with water whilst at uni and has corroded the silver reflector and the bulb so I replace them with Wipac headlights which have an angel eye ring of led's around the outside.

I also wen to the dealer in Edinburgh and they are now ordering up parts for a tsb for the fuel filler vent.....hopefully this will fix the 20 minute (if not longer fill up time). And had my steering wheels re-centered it was so off center the esp light was coming on.

Well the dealer fitted it yesterday and i went to fill up, its strange to not have to be constantly altering the fuel flow. Works perfect now, fills up, clicks with no overfills. should have got it done ages ago

Did your dealer quibble over this at all? I am about to tackle mine as I'm fed up of spending 20-30 minutes at the filling station every time!

No quibbles at all. I did ask them to reasearch the issue to see if they had a fix and they came up with nothing. So I then gave them this info which I got from an Aussie forum and they found the tsb, ordered the parts and installed within a month or so.

Group: Fuel
Service Bulletin Number: 14-002-09

Parts:
Vent filter,
Vent Tube,
Vent Line,
Recurculation Line,
4 x Tie Straps
(He said the parts quickly so I think thats right)

Exams finished the other day so got around to installing my HID fogs. Got them from ebay and they are 6000K version. Haven't had a chance to use them at night yet but they sure do look brighter.
