Strong DOM tubing is carefully crafted for tire clearance and durability. The adjustable threaded rod ends are Forged that give a 37% higher fatigue strength over inferior cast parts, this EXTRA rock bashing strength will hold up to whatever you throw at em.

Fitted with Duroflex™ Joints, the only vulcanized elastomer, self-centering joint enhanced with DuPont™ Kevlar® fiber – providing incredible durability with more misalignment in the control arms and better vibration dampening than anything else available.

DuPont™ Kevlar® Fiber is now compounded in the proprietary elastomer of the Duroflex Bushing, bringing even more strength, durability and performance.

Kevlar® is a synthetic fiber with extremely high tensile strength to weight ratio…five times stronger than steel and commonly used in bullet proof armor applications.

Duroflex Bushings w/Kevlar® can be identified by the MetalCloak “M” located on the outer surface.

We love off road - so join our adventures as we prepare our vehicles in the workshop and drive the tracks here in the stunning Algarve region of Portugal.

Dropping in the occasional "off piste" video when something tickles us, as we look at other vehicles, workshop products to give you tips and practical advice on maintaining your pride and joy !

We are not experts, a father & son team doing our best to show you both ways, the right and unfortunately for us, occasionally the wrong :)

Our new tools will get tested, with various products to save you time and money - again helping you select the right tool, fluid, oil, parts and much much more.

Our videos help you find the content you need, without endless searching - Igniti0n points you in the right direction, with brief snippets that will not detract from you viewing the full video from the real contributor - we are here to promote them, not ruin your enjoyment.

We will also drop in the occasional "off piste" video recommendation if one tickles us as we troll through the endless stream of content - or just banter between ourselves :)

If looking for a new car, electric car, motorbike or ICE car - we can help find the most informative and interesting reviews on youtube.
