Be careful with the 88" sides, the way the door seals fit is slightly different (at least they were when i did a similar thing) Yourll get good money for a dc roof and rear, so you might even find you make a profit from the conversion.

I too am an advocate of air suspension, Ill be converting my 130 to air when i get it back on the road. Going from air suspension to coil springs is like telling your wife "Lets go to Butlins this year"

ive ordered the bits anyhoo. I noted both rear bump stops were missing too so ive got the whole shebang on order. Level sensors were of course already there ;) and tested to be working correctly.

aye id ordered one on the saturday. theres another company doing the same kit for £13.95 now (is it noticable how tight i am?!) ive also ordered a set of schraded valves and fittings so i can manually pump it up in the event of failure. Itll be good to have it on air, they ride so much better...

That was definitely part of it. It’s scyuvating now but it’s unable to get past barely lifted up at all. 60 in the level setting. Perhaps the compressor is knackered and that’s why the previous owner went to a coil conversion

On the nanocom in the stored settings it’s empty? I’ll try making some settings up ( the side which is still on a coil reads 170) so I’ll bang that in and see what happens.

Hey guys I’ve bought an 04 disco for the wife as her old one blew its gearbox. Just converting back to air suspension as it’s been put on coils. I’ve fitted one sides air bag but it won’t inflate. I’ve manually tested the compressor by jumping the relay and it does work. Now the other...

Half the stuff you buy is made in china already.

I have one of the cheap chinese ones. They are not planar. However it was £120. And chucks out some heat! Needs very little power (as itll work quite happily of a teeny 2000mah £s lipo battery for hours and hours) Yes it arrived and it didnt work. However it was a piece of cake to make it work...

With so many tratters being shoved atop galvanised chassis, theres got to be a glut of slightly fooked chassis lying unloved? Im after the front n.s (ideally 1/4 of a chassis really...) to replace the completely disintegrated one on my 130. Must have at least some metal on it (which is more...

Oh an excellent video - cheers matey I'll check that tomorrow. I never even thought of checking the fuses!

Hey guys n gals I'm having peer issues with the disco td5 - it's always been rather gutless but now it's so bad it's hard to get it much past 55! I've got it on a nanocom evo and it says "air reading" I presume this is for the maf reading? It was zero, I've fitted A brand new maf - still...

I have a spare lt230 transfer box which i acquired as part of a job lot of them as it came with some 1.4 boxes that i needed. Rather than have it sat languishing in the workshop, its here for cheap! Totally unknown condition. But there was still oil in it so its not leaking as badly as the one...

ive towed a disco with one, but i had the wife in the disco operating the steering and brakes. You also strap it to the axle not the frame

I would offer to sit on your knee and let you read to me but it could be interpreted incorrectly. Im not actually sure if our disco has a cat purring under there, its a 1999 one ... hmmm ill have a check.

ohhh tempted. where abouts in our fair land are ye

i bought a whole new link rather than mess about replacing the bushes and i knew the bolts werent right but it had to go in as we needed it. But i want to sort it as it drives crap because of it. Basically the rear can shift left and right. Ill have to whip a bolt out and measure everything up.

I wonder if the bushes are incorrect ?

its those RHD100080 that i had as the replacements mate, but i swear the old bolts that came out were bigger. Theres a good couple of mm clearance between the shoulder of the bolts and the bush, when it should be a pretty close fit. T'aint right :P The m16 is the main central pivot bolt :)

I fitted a new watts linkage on the back of the d2 a few months back but had to cut off the old bolts on the 2 outer bushes of the central link. The new ones i ordered were a really loose fit in the watts linkage and its basically banging its tits off and quite wobbly on the rear because of it...
