Desert Cat Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hi guys, I would like to have some clear opinion with shocks for Discovery With ACE and without. Mine Discovery 2 is a 2001 model with ACE. My current original socks are worn, and on fast off-road drive vehicle being bumped. Alternative shocks for replacing the original Land Rover are: 1) OME 2) Koni 3) Bilstein To be honest, I was looking at the Bilstein as a #1 option. Vehicle has no front iron bumper, no winch, I ride with average weight load. After contacting Bilstein Germany, they manufacture shocks for the NON-ACE Discovery models: Front shock F4-BE5-6046-H0 Rear Shock F4-BE5-6047-H0 What is different with ACE vehicle from non-ACE vehicle from the shocks prospective? What could happen when you mont non-ACE shocks on an ACE vehicle? Is it possible to "Valve" the rear shock to suit the ACE Axle? eshocks.com__Bilstein_Off_Road_Shock_Guide.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 My current original socks are worn Marks and Spencer lambswool ones are my preference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAttrill Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 There is no difference between a shock for ACE and any other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skanny Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I have a set of 4 shocks from a 2004 with ACE, they are genuine LR ones and if original have covered only 40K miles I can do you them for £12 each if your interested. Thanks Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
