Hi,,

Leaky ACE pipes on 2002 discovery 2,, and not willing to pay a fortune for new pipes,, it seems that rusty ACE pipes and ****ty swage fittings are a notoriously messy job,, with one fault leading on to another,, I dont want to spend hours on my back playing mechanics,, [there r better things to do on my back,:)]

Obvious route is to discard the ace altogether,, and go for good old fashioned pre ACE,, Anti roll bars ,,
my question is how big a job is this,, and do standard ARB fit straight onto a disco designed for ACE,,, or are other mods going to be involved?

Any advice welcome,,, other than telling me to burn it!!
 
standard ARB's are a straight swap, except you will need new ARB bushes as they are a smaller diameter.

You will also need the pump removed, idler pulley fitting, new AUX belt and finally ECU told theres now no ACE.
 
Hi, I had the same problem just after Christmas! After a bit of searching I found all the stuff I needed via extreme 4x4.
Front and rear anti roll bars Inc. Bushes and clamps and links.
Idler pulley and aux belt.
Did the job myself on the drive way in around 4 hours.
The only thing I havent done is update the ECU as this requires equipment I don't have.
The result - it actually drives better now with only a little more roll in corners.

Hi

How much did the parts cost?

Cheers, Andy
