Waiting delivery, fitted snorkel today. 1.5hrs, actually an easy job. Still to go, Ashcroft ATB, Nanocom, Konis, Tyres, Woods shafts, QT radius arms. Going for a Tigerz11 rack, $350- for a rooftop tent rack can't be beaten, unless someone in vic can go get one tomorrow for me, they're having an extra 20% off at the warehouse. Anyone???
My latest one

The shocks on the D2a were kaput as well so got a set of Bilsteins fitted last week, the ride is quite firm but the Billies handle much better then the second
set of Konis by a fair margin.

Rocky,
Your bull-bar, from a D2 to your D2a?
Recovery shackles onto the bar? Isn't that a no-no, due to the crush-cans?
Dunno about the bull bar, it came with it when i bought it. Is there any difference?Quote:

The bar is attached via the crush cans which are a deformable structure. Equally they could possibly stretch under load as well.
Hi,
Hey is my new Disco 2004. Standard at the moment. it has never been off road except the beach once. New toys on order are

-Safari snorkel
-winch
- 2" 45-50mm dobinsons lift with extended Bilstein shocks

bit of an upgrade from the 1981 Rangie.
