yeh lol, start another one on tyres! :laugh: This is for my build lol!


So.. yeh i did tell him i wanted extended hoses and said im doing a 3" lift. Just think they could have been a bit longer in case? He's obviously done lots of sets though so im guessing hes done them long enough :unsure:

Mick C wrote: They should be ok, the rear one will be the longest. Did Dave @ Llama ask how long you wanted them? If you keep the anti roll bar on the front it will be the rear hose that will get most flex.

I went for red as well lol.



Eerr the rear is probably the middle longest lol, front passenger side was longest. ??

Yeah you're probably right, can't remember tbh :S :blink: Someone local installed mine for pocket money :) The rear has got the most flex to do (the fronts will get more flex if the ARB is removed).

Llama have done shed loads of these so I'm sure they'll be fine. I think I'm right in saying that the combinations of fittings on each pipe are different so you can't get 'em mixed up.

I've got a 2" lift but I ordered hoses for a 3" in case I change the set up in future.
