jules Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I bought the disco with 60k on the clock and now its on 150k and I have never touched the shocks or springe I felt it was time to treat the old girl. the shocks are 0 to +2" and the springs are uprated to take the ARB bumper I added a few months ago also a little more to take the winch when I have some cash I have been busy this morning there New shocks on the market so I'm giving them a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtysouthUK Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Looking good! Are those shocks expensive? I'm keen to hear how they are after some more miles and some off roading. Dom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 The shocks have now done 1500 miles and the rear has been lifted on the ecu to compensate. It tows very well and the handling has improved even with the 2" lift. Its all a bit harder but that is what I wanted. There all new and not the tuff dog shocks I was told over the weekend. the old shocks looked like new when I took them off and there was no reason other than I fancied a change to replace the originals but I am very happy with the money well spent. I do need to look at the DP rear air spring spacers and rear bumpers which are very nice looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
