DONT ASK
ne jones:
RRB its a 1991, disco 200 tdi 5 door.
Do you know what diameter they're meant to be? :?:
Range Rover Blues:
From Experience I'd say the 1991 will be the thinner solid bar type, the 96 probably the thicker tube type.
I think the bar ones were a cheaper part, they are probably 20mm diameter and threaded M20 at the top end, the tube type will be 30+mm and the M20 end is welded on.
The sold bar type seem to have been discontinued after a couple of years.
muddyjames:
I have no idea what trailing arms look like. where should you jack up a disco then? anyone got a photo????
I jack mine up on where the shock absorber (i think iirr) meets the axle as the trolley jack head fits snug around it.
Range Rover Blues:
I either put the shoe under the axle tube or the end of the radius arm, either way you need to be careful about getting the teth in the right place to avoid this sort of incident.
The axles on Blue had very odd ARB mounts, on the rear these wrapped around under the axle and made a box that the jack would sit safely inside. Unfortunatley I tore them off :roll:
