You could also fit D2 front radius arms, they articulate better. Alot of competition motors with RRC or Disco axles convert to D2 front radius arms.
 
Looks a good idea. Just priced up the axles on flebay :eek: I will probably put the RRC axles under for this one as I have them. Can't afford the £400+ to get set up :confused:
 
If you want one Simon your welcome to it I can post for the price of postage it's still attached to my old 3.5:1 axle last used a few years back its possible it was only used for a year as I fitted a new one I had new in LR box kicking about to one of the salisburys either that one or the later 4.7:1 can't remember if I'm honest.

If I need anything like that I can pinch the old mans mill or lathe
 
I picked up my axles for less that 200 because I waited for a bargin. There about 4 " wider stock. You would fit offset rims to gain even more.
 
If anyone is interested there are a pair of disco 2 axles on midland rover owners club facebook for £200 (not mine and nothing to do with me)
 
I paid £250 for mine with radius arms, watts linkage, a P38 panhard rod and got a P38 steering box chucked in.

Thanks for the offer Jai, put it to one side and I will see you at the national if not before. I don't expect I will convert it To A frame but you never know I might build an 80" one day.
 
The sound of the V8 is good but that Turbo :screaming_bug_eye_f

Was that a 107" series 1 getting beached on the bank?
 
Well Iv'e had a month of decorating, brownie points amassed so I have purchased these, Stainless steel and susposedly stronger than the 32mm steel versions out there. The track rod is a custom length to fit my D2 axle and P38 PAS box. I particulary like the steering damper bracket. should be back in the workshop soon.

Nice, they look good, I like them a lot :D
 
They make a verticle piece that fits in the steering damper bracket if you have the pin type damper.
I think I will go with an OE Disco 2 damper.
