2 inch lift help

Hi all,
Just a quick question do I have to put bigger shockers on my disco to lift it 2inches?

always better to fit full kit to get full potential..

The shockers don't lift it it's the springs, but you will need +2" shocks to compensate for the extra height. I've just done mine and got the kit here

BA 3751 - Standard +50 Lift Kit Discovery 1 with std load

yes you will need to use +2" shocks if you use +2" springs

thanks for the help everyone,
I have the springs but need to get the shocks any ideas where i might be able to get them from?

Where have you tried getting them from already?

And what model/year Disco are we talking about here?

it is a 300tdi disco 1, I already have the springs from when I had a rr classic but never used them.
I haven't tried to get them from anywhere because I don't know where to start looking

Try these

Paddock Spares - Land Rover, Range Rover Parts & Accessories - Discovery, Defender and Freelander

Plenty of vendors of aftermarket parts for Land Rovers, for example Paddock Spares, John Craddock, Brookwell 4x4, Island 4x4, mm4x4, etc etc. I tend to use Paddocks or John Craddock for most items, saves dealing with loads of suppliers, but for costly items I'd search a bit wider for a keener price.

Beware - its a minefield out there! I tried to buy standard aftermarket shocks, and ended up with 2" lifted ones, maybe I was unlucky but in searching and deciding what to buy, I came across a LOT of misinformation.

After reading a lot of posts on here about the troubles with lifting, I decided to keep mine standard height. If you do lift it and its a 300TDi Disco, at a minimum, in addition to the shocks and springs, I'd convert the rear prop coupling from 3 bolt rubber doughnut to 4 bolt. There's been reports of the doughnut lasting only a very short time (like, a month) just after it was lifted, when previously they were trouble-free. I'm sure other people have had no issues, and others have also found additional parts which wear quicker or do odd things (eg props, caster correction on steering). A search should reveal lots of info on it.

Valid points but there are vehicles that have very few issues relating to lifts...it doesnt always go tits up

mines fine,before I fitted the lift the suspension was knackered,it hit the bumpstops on rough roads and it had a terrible transmission vibration,now all that has gone,so it dosn't always cause problems.
