Goosey's TDi Disco

I couldn't find my old post so here's a new one
Got my '95 300TDi Disco a few months ago now and just began doing some mods. Here's how she looked at first:

After a few weeks it was time for some new goodies so after a trip to British Offroad I came home with this :


+3" Dobinson's Flexi Coils
+5" Terrafirma Extreme Long Travel Shocks
Extended Brake Hoses
Flexi Flares
Adjustable Panhard
Modified rear shock mounts

After this my head gasket decided to give in so after a week in the mechanic shop getting a new head gasket, timing belt, water pump, 'P' gasket and few other fixes she's running good again so on with the mods

New coils vs old:


New shocks vs old


After some fighting with the coils we got it all in and sitting comfortably:


New ride height

Also new tyres! 33x12.5 r15 Federal Couragia MT's (surprisingly good on the road and in the wet)

New arches drawn up ready to chop :twisted:


Chopped up


This is how she currently sits. Little bit higher than I wanted but I suppose they'll sag down a bit after a while... I hope.


A bit flexed up



Along side my Dad's Navara



Super happy with it up to now. Steering is a lot lighter but not too bad. Coils are just falling out at full flex so i've be putting limiting straps on for my Imbil trip tomorrow and until I can be bothered to build some dislocation cones. Still on the list it,
- Snorkel
- Winch
- Steel Bull Bar
- Rock Sliders
- Rebuild rear bar out of steel
- Air Lockers
- Diff gearing back to normal with the 33's

Loving it though.

Looks good, keep the pics coming

Shall do, hoping to snap a few tomorrow on a trip.

Looking good although I would of cut more of the rear arch off to fit the new ones

They tuck in perfectly on the back, slight snag on the hangover at the back of the flexi flare but nothing the angle grinder can't fix.

Looming good pal.

Nice

Them tyres look good, not something in regular circulation over here in uk I must admit!

Will look out for them though!

I could find your old thread for you quite easily...

They're n awesome tyre but the prices are going up over here as they're getting more popular.
