Hendrik Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Hello, just bought a 2001 Disco 2 V8. I have probs with the air suspension and want to replace it with coil springs, now found these on ebay and have no idea if the kit is complete and worth the money: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LAND-ROVER-DISCOVERY...%3A1|240%3A1318 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LANDROVER-DISCOVERY-...%3A1|240%3A1318 is this all I need, and what's the difference between both kits? ore do you guys suggest better solutions? As my bumper is damaged, I've been looking at a new bumper but the genuine ones are a lot more expensive than this one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/land-rover-discovery...%3A1|240%3A1318 anyone experience with it? or the seller? To finish, my bushes in trailarms, panhard rod etc need to be replaced. Do you guys suggest genuine ones or poly/superpro/bearmach etc bushes? Thanks in advance! H.

Was considering OME 2" lift. Dont forget you need to tell computer that air suspension has been removed. Not done it myself but i believe you can do it using a NANOCOM. Cheers.

JimAttrill Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 If you want standard suspension height, you can use Britpart Blue springs. We have successfully used RR Police spec springs - red/white colours. The spring plates you should be able to get from any scrapyard - they are the same on RRs and Disco Is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discomikey Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 the first kit is complete i think as the disco already has dampers. the only thing being replaced really is the arispring this kit has the relevant mount adaptors and the only other thing i would think you need is the spring polybushes are very good, they arent reely that expensive either, im not sure but i think that the blue ones are the off road ones but it really depends on what youll do with your car the most i hope ive helped you mikey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
