Thread: 2" Lift Disco 1

Thanks everyone!
Have just crawled out from under the car, not the suspension, but the hubs and the rotors. Man that brake pad dust gets everywhere!
Oh, and had to replace the bearing on the Air-con compressor, thanks to the tute by incisor!
Any minute now the shocks will be here and - oh joy!
So I get the full lift with the Dobinson coils and the Lovells shocks. (Couldn't convince SWMBO to get the BOSS shocks)
Will try and post some pics before and after.

Do yourself a favour - park on a flat level hard surface and measure the height of of your current vehicle, either to the top of your front and rear bar or better still from the centre of your wheel to the bottom of your guard.

Do this again after you have installed your new springs / shocks and been for a run. This will then tell you what sort of lift you achieved - probably more than 2 inch as your current suspension may be a bit flat.
