How far to lift my disco?

<< < (3/6) > >>

Budgie:

--- Quote from: "96Disco" ---I've recently fitted a set of the new, yellow BritPart springs and ProComp shock absorbers.  I bought these from Paddocks as a kit and they've lifted the car about 2".  The only problem I've had is the rear anti-roll bar flipping over which I've solved by removing it.

You can leave the anti-roll bar in place by fitting spacers on the chassis mounts. RangeRoverBlue used solid tow hitch spacers and says the holes are the same pitch as the roll bar fittings.  :wink:

I have recently fitted 2" lift kit with extended brakes hoses etc...etc
only having the disco for a couple of weeks before this mod i noticed a big improvement on road, more responsive steering and lighter. I agree that you should only fit what you need though, having bigger tyres fitted this week so that involves bump stops? and some other costly items

96Disco:
Budgie, thanks for the tip, I shall probably leave the bar off because it doesn't seem to affect the handling.  I spoke to my insurers about this and it's not a problem as far as cover's concerned.

I would agree to a point, but I am into serious off roading and both of my cars are standard height.  You don't need to lift to have a very capable off roader.
