    I run 12" short body 7100s 360/80 front and 400/100 rear on a RRC, it's been great
    Cheers

    400/100 but Motorsport can build what you want. I also use 360/80f and 400/100r but think 400/90r would be a really good compromise in a heavy D2

    Oh sorry Chief, I should have read further back. I'm not sure about a 130, that's a whole different vehicle. I'm assuming you'd rather just order from OS, but the way I went about it was to work with bilstein Motorsports from the very start and tapped into their knowledge and experience before continuing to develop from there.
    Cheers

    I'd start with 360/80 front and 400/100 rear. They are not hard to revalve..

    Brutus: 1969 109 ExMil 2a FFT (loved and lost)

    After a snapy 6800km to Brisbane and back in the last 6 days. The 360/80 all round in the Disco has been great. I wouldn't want it any softer on-road but then I wouldn't want it any harder off-road.

    Happy Days.

    Just a word of warning for those fitting them to a Disco 2 with rear air. Watch where the braided line to the external reservoir sits. Mine rubbed through the rear air con line and cost me $90 to have the line repaired and $190 for a re-gas of the air con.

    I don't have a proper solution yet. The braided line is just held out of the way with a cable tie and then another holding the shock turned away from the air con line


    Happy days
