The Island price is about the best price I've seen when I did a hunt around on the net recently - without getting into used parts. It is recommended that both are replaced at the same time, just like tyres, well they are both rubber bags of air... if you really want used tell me and I'll point...

Very impressive! Thanks for putting so much time and effort in.

Winch Mount Discreet D2; Bearmach BA176

Yep and then if it's just plates it will be cheap to dip

Yep and a sealed drum and move the electics up high! Guess this is expensive, but the bumper looks standard: Discrete winch mount - Discovery/Range Rover., Winch Fitting Kits, Superwinch from PWS Engineering Ltd. - Old Wareham Road Parkstone

Have you asked the mot tester? I've had 1 LR with 6 advisorys mot'ed a year later with no advisories, the first station was repair shop fishing for business, not saying this is happening with you, but if you have paid for something, then the tester should take a minute or two to explain the...

Should be possible, would need a small winch and very strong plates as it will be well below the end of the chassis rails, paul at [email protected] is doing a custom NAS on one of his bumpers for me, he might be up for fabing a custom mount?

Thanks gemsdad for words of wisdom, I'm a member of quite a few car and motorbike forums for many years so used to having the pee extracted, but used to having somebody who has the T-shirt saying, you need xyz - or speak to Bob at so and so. Will keep the faith!

Sticking with the standard 16 ES alloys, they look ok to me and having come from series LR and RR classics, I like a bit of sidewall for protection! The marix panther looks favourite at the mo, BF AT remould, but not a daily ride and most driving below 70, and comes as 65 profile, but like the...

Thanks discodriver, I have decide to pop a spring & shock kit on for now as I have to get the compressor out of the way asap and I'm currently too busy at work to fab a frame/plate for the compressor and extend/balance the pipes, if I really hate the springs, then I can plumb the air back in...

Thanks loud and proud, ACE and air shouldn't be connected, they have separate ecus and the d2 could be had with ACE and air separately or together in different markets Soloby Rob, if you are ask somebody the time and they tell you what the weather is, then you are going to non plused as well...

I'm start to wish I hadn't bothered asking, I getting views off topic but no answers, ACE deals with cornering (roll), air deals with smoothness (resonance). I didn't ask about lpg, I didn't go for diesel (which two of my cars are, so not anti diesel) because I like the sound and smoothness of a...

Thanks, but I have disregard that idea for the following reasons; 1. £450 extra for one of those tanks 2. As I'm keeping the side steps and because of the size of lpg tank I'm going for they won't hang down below the sills, anyway I can always design and have made up a pair of tank/sill guards...

Here's the plan on my D2 v8, going for lpg, with tanks up under the sill (ES spec, so side steps in place) this to keep the full size tank and not have the tank in the boot (space issues and having the tank by the dog..., rather ride the bomb!!! Like Peter Sellers) so rear air bags going cos...

Thanks guys, I trying to resist says, 'I will give my knob a good tug at the weekend and see it comes off...' oh dear, failed again...
