  MUDFLAPS (and other obligatory equipments)  
   

Since a short time FIA and FFSA rules are quite similar according safety equipments.

Mudflaps : they must be solid, semi-rigid and far from wheels enough to avoid being "swallowed" ! A elles doivent être solides, semi-rigides et assez éloignées des roues pour ne pas se faire "avaler" !
A holding strap might be welcome...

Tow hooks : they must be strongly fixed to the chassis in order to avoid breaking or opening during an powerful "strap blow".

Rear lights : new LED lights are clearly visible, they avoid collision in dust...ESSENTIAL !l

Circuit breakers : to preserve and to maintain frequently because they jam easily.

 
  BRAKING  
  Even if in cross-country adherence is not identical to asphalt rally, braking system needs special care.

From experience, rigid ducts tend to break...It's preferable to repalce them on 4X4 with "aviation" type hoses, supple and covered on some sections exposed to stones spitting.

Faceplates and brake callipers may also be oversized; after all, it's only a quesion of preferences... and budget !
