Still no update, too much going on, however I've been thinking a lot about my headlights. When I put it back on the road next year for when I get my licence, it'll have to be legal, and it won't pass the test (WOF) with water in the headlights. Earlier I said that these lights won't be staying...

Is it V8 or diesel?

Looks good! But how much does it affect your departure angle?

Thanks! The rear is now lifted using the spacers I've built so I'm half way lifted! I have the photos but no time for the right up, however I managed to upload a quick Youtube video of the exhaust (now that it's broken): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODvBc10x54E If you compare it to the...

Sorry about missing the hole! Um, well, I don't know how it it set up at the front for a D2. However, I can show you what I did for my Disco 1! You'll need to find the centre of the spacers, and drill a hole 3/4" for the front shockies. I assume you'll be making the spacers out of seamed box...

Wow! Over here the 300 series are more expensive than the 200 series, and had no headlights so I took a punt!!!!

Oops, just realise first photos upside down, but I'm sure everyone will survive :D And incase your wondering, the French toast is good!!!! :D lol

Alright, sorry to be late but here is the info on what I did for a D1. I'd check all the measurements (draw up a fullsize plan on some cardboard and sit it in a spring mount) as this was not made for a D2. Here's a plan I drew up (quite badly :eek:) Here's the steps in real life...

I assume it's a diesel? A 200 series as well? Anyways, it's looking good :D

What's it going to end up as? Anyway, I love the 3 doors but may I ask, how much is something like that in England?

Keep it. Otherwise if everyone scraps them, there will be none left! But seriously, it's really not to much work (by the sounds of it)

It really depends. My dad is fitting a KAM Drop In Locker to his Disco, which has a whining diff, so all that the KAM locker doesn't replace is being replaced is being replaced with parts from a spare axle we have. So far we've only pulled out the diff from the spare axle, which was about 3...

Thanks! There should be another update soon! Next up is a lift and 32s :D:D:D:D

Yeah! There's not a huge amount around. Before Land Rover converted to the 300 series Disco, they ran out of 3.5 motors for the last of the 200s. So they just put the new (well back then it was) 3.9 V8 in. Most of these ones were bought by Honda but I believe a few were kept.

Update: Alright guys, big update from the weekend. I was hoping to get it done in 2 parts, a Saturday update and a Sunday one, but I ran out of time and didn't do either! So here I go. The bumper that's on the front of my truck is only held on with 2 bolts, and considering that when we're on...

Dimensions are coming. But I've just done some research and the shock mount are different on a D2 rather than a D1 (what I did it on) I'll show you what I did, but the shock absorber mount my need changing. That shouldn't be too hard

I'll try and get the dimensions to you soon. In may pay to check that the lower spring mounts have the same inner diameter and that the bolts that bolt from the mount to axle are the same as a D1.

If you can put up with a winch bumper w/ a A-Bar here's a cheap one: Heavy Duty RSB Landrover Discovery Winch Bumper Not bad for £178.00 including vat

You can also get them here: PM692 | Discovery 1 Heavy Duty Front Bumper A HP winch bumper could also be a good way and just put your no. plate over the hole for the fairlead. It just means you'll get a better range :D

They should be fine but I'd replace them. EBC have a good line of cheap, quality rotors. They also have pads, and are quite expensive, but sound well worth it
