    Tie rod / drag link fix/replacement

    1. Should I just replace the ends or the entire assembly? It depends. It might be easier to replace everything, but it'll probably cost more. I don't know if you do off roading but if you do and you've bent your steering previously, but if you have it could be a good idea to replace it all, as...

    Its only a bloody tyre question.

    Yes, spacers should stop any rubbing. My truck runs 235/85s and it doesn't rub w/ 30mm spacers, and I figured out that there should be room for 265s.

    What lift to get 35" tyres in?

    Guy in our club runs 35s and I think he had 4" lift and well butchered guards

    Like the bumpers! Looks much better than a couple pages back :D

    Finally got myself a disco!

    They're the same patter (just not as deeper tread) as the Simexs and similar to Silverstones. They guys in our club generally run them at about 45-50psi. I know it sounds very high, but it's to try and make the tyres 'balloon' so it isn't running on the side lugs. You probably won't want to run...

    New toy and a couple of problems

    What size tyres are those on there? Coz my truck has 30mm spacers and I didn't need to adjust the steering stops when I fitted 235/85s. Wheel spacers seem v good so far :D About vague steering, I agree with haigy, check your bushes. Looks a reasonably good buy :)

    Disco v8 auto help

    What year? Mines a 200 series 1994 and I can start mine up with doors open. With the lock my passenger door does something like that. It's broken :( So dunno about yours, but it would appear something may not be right, but then again, I may be comparing an early one to a later model one.

    So do those rock sliders mounts to the chassis or body?

    Is that where you got your Rock Sliders too?

    Wow! Just read this thread from start to finish! It took a while :) Very nice. What brand bumper is the front one? Looks good.

    Finally got myself a disco!

    He asked for sensible mods, I gave him sensible mods. Dog guards are good for holding things back during off roading and are good in a crash (of course, you don't plan for one!) and snorkels are a nice to have thing. I'd much rather have a snorkel than be stuck without one.

    wide arches but not lifted

    Yeah, I've run that (with wheel spacers too) for a while. I've now put in a 2 inch lift but ran some 245/75/16 tyres with some White Tiger (I think) flares/arches which worked great. Could have probably got some 31's in but may have been pushing it (I'd chuck in some 20mm coil spacers :D) Photos:

    vented brake conversion for 1998 300tdi auto

    I've just been offered a combined order opportunity with 2 other guys (shipping to NZ is what kills it for me) and I'm thinking about brakes, cause they're not as good with 32s that 29s. Don't want to go vented, but here's what I thought: -EBC Drilled and Slotted Front Rotors -Extended S.S...

Doesn't have to be only Landies, as long as are Landies in it. Please don't put...

    Finally got myself a disco!

    I've run 30mm wheel spacers on my Disco and it meant that I was able to keep stock turning circle despite putting on bigger tyres. My List of 'sensible' mods: -Snorkel (Must have) -Wheel Spacers -Diff guards (NOT clamp on cause they fall off) -Steering guard or HD steering arms -Dog guard...

    Has anyone actually built a Re-Discovery, or is it all talk?

    Ha, I've always just thought that they all had them. It's something I noticed and then for some reason assumed they all had them!

    Has anyone actually built a Re-Discovery, or is it all talk?

    Thanks! I also like the wider tires on it and the fact that there isn't side steps, extra lights etc, just simple :D Anyone know why all Re-Discoverys seem to have their roof bars taken off?

    Gwyn Lewis sells 5mm weld in pans if you don't want to go the DIY route.
