And a nuvver fing......some kunts cut the two tow bar bolts off the bumper right at the base ffs... am i right in thinking these are captivated nuts?
 
On my 200 the bumper just has two holes in it.

I had to remove the top trim to get in and stick some bolts up from below and stick nuts on them.

I think later discos might have had captive nuts though...

Welded i couldnt get hold of the forged ones n thems way too dear fer me, Ive had a bit of a nightmare this afternoon..... had to jackrear up right up to get the diff guard on the tank was in the way...had to put2 holes in the top of the rear bumper to get the tow bar bolts out that some tw@ had cut heads of.....

The anchor points where jake rings go are these the same lugs the lower tow bar brackets fit to? theres a bolt in both of em but no heads or nuts and they is stuck solid any ideas how to get em out? i started to drill the 1 out but just burning the bits out i assume they is high tensile bolts... so atm im stuck with no rear recovery point :(

Yeah you have to jack the body to get the rear diff guard on.
Not sure with the rear of a disco.Is there any where else that they will bolt through the chasis rail?
