2" lift

<< < (2/2)

weeone:
I fitted +2" springs along with +2" dampers, and drove that way for over a year..... though the rubber donut on the 300tdi complained (terminally, twice).

I have since upgraded the radius arms (fronts and rears at different times), and the props.

I found that the anti-roll-bars got grumpy, and often flicked over (resulting in a strange knocking noise coming from the under-carriage)

I've yet to swap to a longer panhard rod or extended brake-hoses.... and I suspect one should consider a change to the rear A-Frame some tme too

My motor gets a LOT of use, 30,000+ miles a year, and involved in the setup of a dozen off-road event over the year too.

I've done a couple of mine and had no problems at all with the standard components.

Range Rover Blues:
If you go through rubber doughnuts that quickly it's probably because the rubber support bush inside the prop also wants changing.

I cheated: over the new year, I went to a 4-bolt flange (and wide-yoke propshafts) :D
