Hi There, thanx for part no., I have a mate living in Australia who visits Namibia every second month for business, I would really be obliged if you could post me the website to place an order for this part/parts, when I looked for LR Australia I could only find info on new vehicles, if I had the bucks for a new disco I would'nt be driving an 11 year old disco II !!!

At least on the other hand you don't have to be a rocket scientist to repair ( most ) mechanicals on the GS 2000 model.

Sorry about that - the post is 5 years old and the pics appear to be gone from my website. I'll see if I can locate them.

Hmm, I can't remember my password to get into my site...

It's in a file I lost when I had my HDD failures a few weeks back.

Its just a short section of really thick angle which gets welded in.

The part would have to be purchased from a local LR dealer by your friend.
The part is not specific to Australia though so I'm surprised you can't get one anywhere else.

So this is thread revival to the extreme but I purchased a 02 td5 d2 a few months ago and have done a ton of work to it, top end rebuild, manual conversion, front/rear bars, locker in rear, cdl, facelift lights, big intercooler, coil conversion, lift, 255/85/16s etc.
Unfortunately I've just had a good clean underneath and have found some cracking near the steering box. I've only found limited info on this on thd net but this thread references repair sections, does anyone have any photos of thrse fitted?
Thanks
