Thread: New D2 - Need a hand with a few things

A few weeks back I wrote off my D1 and had to get a new car.

I put down a deposit on a 2002 Disco 2 last week and will be picking it up this week

The previous owner tells me that when he had a pre-roadworthy done they flagged the upper and lower ball joints (torn boots) and the front ACE cylinder had a leak (fairly easy to replace I think)

I would like to replace the ball joints myself, but I understand the job can be a little hard and requires some specialised tools.

Would anyone be willing to lend me a hand?

I am fairly comfortable with most mechanical repairs, but the last thing I want to do is dismantle the front end and leave it parked in the drive for 2 weeks because I cant get the ball joints out.

Also, where is the best place to purchase parts in VIC?

Thanks,

Dizza

I can confirm that the ball joints Mario has just got in stock are top notch....my mechanic was very impressed with the quality...and the price )
