2" lifts, any long term users?

Hi guys,
             With the zook now sold and the Defender looking like its going as well, we are going to invest in a Disco mainly for greenlanes, and the odd pay and play with our club. After purchase we will have about £1,750 to spend on "bits" to turn her into a bit of a beast, we have already decided on winch and underbody protection etc and we are now looking at suspension.
Anyway the question is this, we are thinking of buying one of the lift kits from mm4x4, which includes,

decarbon shocks
coils
dislocation cones
extended bump stops
rear check straps
extended brake hoses

this seems like a good deal, and includes most of what you need to do the job, my question however is this
Has anyone had a 2" lift fitted without caster corrected arms and double U/J's, for any length of time? ie 6months or more, and have they had any major problems? I know this has been done too death but there is no specific long term "user reviews" if you know what I mean.
Thanks for all your help, and if any one can suggest must have buys for the Disco then by all means let us know.
Thanks
Fram.

You said you had £1750 to spend, a good winch and bumper or going to set you back over £1k, a 2" lift kit - £300/400, protection - £150, new radius/trailing arms - £300, oooooooooooops, thats where its all gone...... :wink:

one thing i would reccomend is rock sliders or whatever you want to call them, they have saved my disco loads of times. joe
