Ditto.... I would stay away from Britparts if you can.
My recommendation is Tom Woods. Their driveshaft products are a reputable entity in the LR community:

Thanks to everyone for your feedback. As well as pointing out the video shows the tire only, and it is not a rim/tire combo.
I have a BajaRack which I modified to fit the Baroud tent. Weight capacity would be sufficient. My concern is whether the Baroud struts can support the rim/tire combo. I...
I am hoping to get feedback from Baroud users who store their spare tire on the roof of the tent. I noticed a video posted by the US distributor where the spare tire is mounted on the roof:

I can't find any specs on the James Baroud...
Apa khabar! I used to travel to the region a few times a year for a number of years for work in the Kalimantan Tengah and Timur regions. I work in the transportation sector supporting the logging and mining segment. I consider off-roading in this tropical terrain (humidity, clay mud and vast...
i do not think the RTT mounting rail distance should be a constraint. You have to mount the RTT mounting rails to be perpendicular to the vehicle rails. Therefore, the mounting points are adjustable as the mounting attachments slide along the grooved track until you find the proper separation...
I no longer have the tent, but I saved the attached manual> Hope this will be useful:

I bought a few of these and mounted it to the base of my RTT floor. One nice thing of these units is the motion control option and no need for wiring. It lights up when you are climbing...
My soft-top RTT experience is limited to this one tent. I have not used other soft-top RTTs in the past. I chose this tent as it offered the best value when I was doing my research on the Internet. One factor was the shipping cost as I had to bring mine into Canada. I chose the Tuff Stuff RTT as...
Just took these yesterday of the roof rack. Please note the front (basket) part of this Baja expedition rack has been modified to match the rear horizontal level for the mounting of the Baroud RTT. Hope the pics will give you a good idea of the height of the Baja rack relative to the Disco roof...
I love the Baja expedition rack on my Disco. Here is my post thread when I first mounted a soft-top RTT on the rack:

Small world... I am originally from Singapore... spent my pre-school childhood in Malacca (where my father worked).
My wife is from South Dakota. She has tried durians. She loved the creamy custardy goodness, but not the smell. Neda should definitely try it once! And don't forget to take...
Love your photographic updates! Have the you tried durians yet? It is known as the "king of fruits" in this region. You gotta try one to be able to say that you have truly seen SE-Asia **cheeky grin**
