Hello everyone

I've recently (snigger) bought a 2004 Disco TD5 Landmark (for far too much). It's my 3rd Landy in total having had a S3 and D1 previously.

I've got no idea what I'm doing so will probably end up posting lots of questions in the correct technical sections of the forum.

I really want new tyres on it so tell me what tyres I need.

I also want a lift on the suspension coz it's not high enough to impress the neighbours so where can I buy the parts required.

Some people never learn. And don't ask us about tyre size.

Will a 19" tyre fit on a 16" rim?

Welcome to the forum

That looks stuck. If yer call 0800freelander one of us will recover it.

Tires... always fit round ones. Many er tratterer on ere has made this mistake.

Suspension lift... Jack up the body and wedge blocks if wood int springs. Its not like its gonner make the ride and handling any worser.

That was my first D1 which was only really used for noobie trialling. Not sure if I had the 2" lift on it in those photos.
I might pop in to AG and say hello, I hear they're all really friendly.
