    oh dear, Disco 330tdi

    Having done most things to mine, the best advice I can give if you are going to major ish work to the engine bay area is to remove the engine.

    Lifting 1995 d1 300tdi

    If you put the correct rated springs on your disco for the type of load you are going to carry then you shouldn´t suffer from any suspension drop. I have medium duty Terrafirma units at the back and light duty at the front and can completely load the rear end without any drop at all. That...

    Morroco organised rally event

    Thanks for the input Richard, the existing shocks and springs are not completely knackered however they are far from ´like new´condition! I will be changing them before the rally, it is just a question of whether I go for original size, or for a slightly taller set up. I will be fitting 245 /...
