I went over to my mates work shop yesterday and fitted Ridepro suspension to the Disco yesterday.
It is a huge difference to the alcheapo so called 50mm lift springs that were in it before and ended up lower than OEM springs.
Another thing I found was that the right hand rear spring was half as thick again to the left one but the same hight.
No wonder it didn't like the tent on the roof or being loaded up too much.

Now it drives like the tent isn't even there and has clearance between the guard and the tyre, but the 265s still dont fit, damn damn damn.

I ramped it while there as well and as soon as I can down load them to the computer I will post them on here.

Here's some pics, Ramping it mine was only about 4" down with the sway bars connected than my mates comp rig with 4" lift, 40mm body, 35" simexs but he had to stop as the simex on the rear left was crunching it self into the flare.
A D2 that came to get some bits gave it a go and was about 5" down from mine but the traction control would have kept it driving up the ramp with the back wheel off the ground.
Now im after some 245/85x16s for it as my 265s dont fit damn damn damn...
