Thread: What happened to your Discovery 2 today?

I don't think regular bolts will fit the mounts.

Something may have been lost in the transition, but what I think you meant to convey was, Toyota were born to be towed by Land Rovers.

For the second time!
Rear sway bar link failed and allowed the ACE pipes to float around resulting in wearing through and leaking.
Fortunately this time driver noticed the red ACE warning light on the dash and we didn't lose all the fluid resulting in a destroyed pump last time.
In the market for some replacement pipes if you have any lying around.
