Hi all I am after some advice been searching and reading for hours.. What i want to do is get 33,s on the disco i just got and need to see what mods will need to be done here is what i had planned will it do the job.
+2" springs
2" spring spacers
1" Body lift
+5" Shocks
6 Deg Castor corected radius arms and trailing arms
Adjustable panhard rod
Wide ange propshafts
Extended break lines
30mm Wheel spacers
So if I do that will I be able to get 33's on it without having to hack out loads of the body and still be able to turn corners!!!
Tyre is 305/70/16 or (33X12.5X16)
If the 33's wont fit what size would you say would fit
I am not the most technical person in the world so if you could give any responses in a easy to understand way
Cheers Nathan

Hi
I have a 97 300 tdi and am going to mod it for some serious offroading and would like some advice before I even start! I always see on here people asking how to go from 33,s then to 35,s then to 37,s so I have decided to do it the easy way or not and go straight to 37,s.
What i have decided to go for is the Scorpion Racing Extreme kit with I hope a 3" lift from that I will also be fitting double cardan propshafts, upgrading the half shafts, cv joints, rose jointed panhard rods and trailing arms etc I am also going to fit ARB Air Lockers front and back. What I need to know is how much of a body lift am I going to need and how much of the arches will I needs to lose to get some 37,s on it. it is a 3 dooor so no major problem cutting a fair bit of body out. Also if anyone can help what sort of ratio would you sugest for this set up. I would like to get it right the first time so any advice is welcome
Cheers
