Hi guys and girls,
Im wanting to lift my disco 1 by 2 inches and people are saying that I should but one guy says it wallows and is s*** handling.
Also what is it like for towing a caravan when lifted and do I need to get +2 inch shocks or can I use standard height?

Please be honest. Thanks

Why do you want to lift it?
Fitting heavy duty lift springs means it doesn't wallow as much as people think.
You can just about do 2" without having to worry about brake lines and +2" shocks if your not going off road too extreme.
That's if you just want the look?

I want to lift it so I can do more off road without the embaresment of getting stuck or grounding out

The diffs ground out before anything else so bigger tyres would help in that respect.

And lifting it allows you to fit bigger tyres than without the lift.
