Thread: Disco 2 Q's

Hi, looking to buy an auto TD5 D2. I've been looking around the web and a couple things I'd like to know. I understand that the D2 cdl can be fairly easily reconnected on the t-cases starting with either 41D or 42D. Does anybody know what years these were fitted? Also, I will be looking to chip the engine. As I understand it some of the autos can take more power than others. I read that the 2A chassis range can handle more while the 1A chassis range can't. Same as above, anybody know what years had which chassis range?

Thanks,

Thanks guys, yeah I've been scouring the forums to learn how to reconnect the cdl and had sort of hoped that I could tell just by the yaer if it was a suitable candidate but it appears the only way to be sure is to get under there and feel for myself.

As to the chassis range, it was something I read on another forum may have been Outerlimits? Talked to Bruce Davis and he said I can do an upgrade on them all but the later the model the better as changes have been made and the early ones ones only cope with a mild boost without sending it into limp mode while the later ones can handle more power.

Looking like a 2001 model should give me an easy cdl hookup and cope with a bigger power boost.
