    Disco 1 Front radius arms - how much play is acceptable? Pulsing motion to braking.

    Well I think it's clear that i'll need to sort the radius arm bushes - i'll get my local LR specialist to do that for me. Hopefully that also cures the braking pulsing - That may by the radius arm bush flexing side to side as it picks up and swaps the force of the braking.

    Disco 1 Front radius arms - how much play is acceptable? Pulsing motion to braking.

    I have had a couple of Disco 1's and each have had a fair few mods. I guess thinking about a stock disco the first things i'd change are: Front heavy duty front bumper, ideally winch compatible ready for the future! Side sill protectors (rock sliders) - my first D1 had sill steps which kept...

    Greenlaning nr Guildford?

    ... thanks for that. I wasn't proposing a solo mission. Just wondering what routes people would recommend are a bit too savage given the recent weather and flood warnings.

    I'm in the Basingstoke area but have been working out an all-day route using lanes I know that go towards Alton, through Farnham, Frensham, Devils Punchbowl and then plan to drive some of these Dorking lanes. Has anyone got info on any that are in bad repair right now - above seems to suggest...
