Morning all,
Tried doing a search but struggling.
Had my new (2nd hand) PAS box delivered yesterday with the staight drop arm.
might change over to the disco setup - so if i bought these:
Heavy Duty Steering Rods for Range Rover Classic and Discovery 1 - with 4 ball joints
Is it then just a case of swapping the adjustable damper mount from the rear bar to the front bar?
I know i will have to buy a disco damper but how do i know where to fit the adjustable damper mount along the front bar?
I take it the front bar TRE just bolts throu the hole on the drop arm?
Cheers,

yes there a straight swap and easier for doing ball joint for drop arm in future you could fit damper as with disco on rear of axle case on drag link you would need a diff bracket as well got loads if you wanted one or the bracket should fit on drag link and use trial and error to center it on draglink
 
Just been given a new disco damper free so will try and use it.

I am to fit the mount onto the front rod (drag link?) and using the original chassis mount, set the wheels straight half the travel on the damper and fit. hope fully then the damper has equal travel left and right.

Does that idea sound workable?
