    Jacking up disco 2

    Airs removed already thanks Where's your preferred jacking points then? One corner at a time or can I get it up in one without the diffs. (back and front separate obviously)

    Jacking up disco 2

    Suspension change time when I'm feeling better, just planning from the couch! Would you jack one side then 2x axelstands on trailing arm/chassis mounts and then use the jack to support one axel at a time and do one side then the other Or would you do the front and back together? If doing...

    Egts kill td5s my 265 65s are 2inches smaller than yours and up sustained hills I can get my temps up to 650 and yours will have to work 7% harder than mine to maintain the same speed. Too high and you'll damage your head, warp your manifold etc Gaguge with an alarm on, if it pings just back...

    Nice, they are a big tyre, fit an exhaust temp gauge with an alarm on it so you don't cook it on motorway hills Also you need a 5th in that size for a spare

    D2 clicking/ticking

    Doing it again this morning! Soon as I unlocked it it stopped then wouldn't do it again! Had a look behind the panel but apart from the look going down the corner there is nothing there!

    Raised air intake, take a look

    Just come across this. Never seen this type before on a disco 2. Or 1 for that matter. Its more like the defender style. Anyone go a pic of one fitted? Thanks https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154307137028

    D2 clicking/ticking

    Thanks for your reply. I have springs on the back and the fuses have been pulled for the sls. Ill remove the trim when I get chance and see what's behind there. Its definitely like a relay bouncing. Stopped as soon as I unlocked it..

    D2 clicking/ticking

    I came out to work this morning and as I walked past my 2003 td5 and it was making a fast click/ticking noise, quicker than every second. Like an electrical sound, relay making etc. The noise was coming from the very back corner, drivers side, when I unlocked it it stopped and hasn't happened...
