Yet another lifting question

<< < (3/3)

Range Rover Blues:
In the UK we get to bolt whatever we want onto out towbar, so the swan neck towbar is not that popular, it don't know what you have over there.  Anyway, the ISO50 towball has 2 m16 bolts through it but the hole centres are perfect for the job of ARB spacer, just as long as the spacer isn't hollow so that hte rubber bush dissapears into it.

MADMAN:
the rear anti roll bar on my old 200tdi ranger flipped on one side while off road then failed to flip on the other side & twisted the bar so when i removed the links to put it back to normal the back end sat tilted to one side!
so i binned it, didnt make much difference with the stiffer brit part  +2" springs & gave more droop off road

Guardian.:
for a straight forwar 2 inch lift you need change nothing, i have lifted lots with just the spring and shock kits, brake lines are long enough, but thats the only other thing that would need doing if you do off roadin.
pack the anti roll bars 2 inches as a precaution because as everbuddy says, they can flip, but i strongly advise against tacking them off as the last one i did on my own disco was the first time i took them off and there is no 2 ways about it, on road without them they drive totally crap and wobble everywere.
once you have lifted get your tracking reset and it will drive fine, i bet you dont even notice a difference.

Range Rover Blues:
One of the things that makes a difference is the condition of your steering.  On RRR I have put off fitting any new steering components as I learned on Blue that when you fit a nice tight new steering box any self centring effect left on a 2" lift dissapears.
