Modifying a 300TDI Discovery 1
Discussion
Hello people
One of my cars is a Land Rover Discovery 300tdi (manual). I use it for green laning, occasional trips over to Salisbury Plane and for going camping with. I've become attached to this car now, and regulary choose to drive it over my other car.
I've had this old girl for almost a year and the suspension is looking a bit saggy. I have been on the LR forums and there seems to be so much conflicting information about what suspension kit to go for. Here is what I am after -
1) Reliability kept as it is
2) I want more height under the diffs
3) To be able to fit bigger tyres for more traction off road + big tyres look awesome
Now I don't want to go crazy, a 2" lift would suit me, but what kits do you guys recommend? I have read about some kits will decrease axle articulation, which is not what I want to do. I also want to keep the reliability of this truck and have heard some lifts will damage the propshaft.
Cheers all
Vinny
