right i am looking at buying a lift kit next week what do you think to this kit

its £360 to my door. its a 2" lift kit which consists of
-2x britpart performance springs (da4201 and da4204)
-4x procomp es9000 plus 2" gas shocks
-1 pair of front dislocation cones
-1 pair of rear dislocation cones
-4x spring retainers
-4x extended polyurethane bump stops
-4x goodridch stainless steel brake hoses+4 inchs

anyone had any of these ?


thanks in advance
 
yeah its paddocks
im lifting it to give it more ground clearance and so i can fit some bigger tyres without chopping my bodywork. plus looks better imo

Is there any point in the dislocating kit if you are only fitting plus 2 shocks and are fitting longer bump stops ? Might be wrong but im pretty sure your shocks will bottom out before the spring dislocates or it will just part contact and no more and the longer bump stop will also stop it dislocating i might be wrong i not 100% on discolation
 
im not too sure i know nothing about these kits/setups.
spoke to a guy earlier he said i should get some different springs to the ones in the kit as they sag?
tax is due end of month too ors i would have a bit more to spend.
paddocks do a kit just springs and shocks for around £200 but this deal semp better due to it having all the extra parts.
 
£210 for springs and shocks same as the above kit.

what do you guys reccommend im planning on doing some green laning and some off roading nothing major offroading i also use it everyday what parts do i need?
 
there is the arguement that if you're only 'green laning and some off roading' then you probably wont need any of it. You'd be suprised where you can go in a standard Disco to be honest... eaither way good luck
 
got dislocation cones front n rear on mine

when your spring pops out and your trying to jack your disco up high enough to pop it back it you will have wished you had them

if you dont need em your not trying hard enough
 
With the kit you've listed you WILL need rear dislocation cones. I speak from experience having dislocated rear springs with that kit.
As others have said, a standard disco is a VERY impressive bit of kit. I lifted mine for a few reasons though - the standard springs had sagged and the dampers were tired, I have LPG tanks and wanted to try and regain some of my lost break over angle and I also wanted to fit bigger tires to give more clearance under the diffs.
