Thread: Disco II Steering bump stops

I'd PM slunnie,,
but the limits are VERY easy to remove,,
and if you take off too much--
very easy to add a washer to restore!

When I found this thread I thought that my prayers had been answered.

Having moved recently from a Disco 1 to a Disco 2 I like everything about the new beast EXCEPT the turning circle. I have nearly clipped the bus a number of times in carparks, and had to reassess U-turns due to the difference.

I went to remove my bump stops but currently neither of them is touching! The right hand one would be about 10mm short and the left about 5mm.

Any thoughts??

The D2 with 18's will need a MUCH bigger circle than with 16's,,,

neither are really good in carparks,,

hmmm there is a post in here somewhere about steering stop lengths,,

OK guys
i have 18" rims on mine & have taken 4mm off the stops
with no problems ,thinking of taking a smidgeon more.

I gotta say, the turning circle on my D2 is attrocious compared to my RRC and thats with the 23mm stops!

The RRC does half a cul de sac, the D2... well... lets just say i see both sides close up!!

Only had my d2 for a bit over a month ,has 18in wheels, yeh i noticed the turning circle nowhere near as good as the old 300, i simply cut the stops down(removed 1st) with a hacksaw, worked well ! happy days Ross

Not if you're running my tyres
