Needed- shocks for Disco 1 3 inch lift

Just purchased a disco 1 to participate in the Budapest-Bamako rally in January. The suspension is lifted by 3 inches, and has extended brake plus corrected Radius arms. The shockers are totally shot. Question is...Who sells longer shockers? Can I fit 2 inch longer shockers? All the best John

John, for an event like that I would seriously consider putting original springs and shocks on. IF they are 3" they will be very soft. Either way, your road handling and load carrying capabilities will be very bad.

I would think you could pick up the whole set of springs very cheap from a breakers or ebay (£25?) and then new shocks will also be cheap and brand new.

Thanks Griff for the advice. Might get some 2 inch shocks and springs, and hopeg the radius arms don't need sorting. I can get some shocks for gratis, but will need to find some springs. I will not be putting anything on the roof, and have another disco which I have desert bashed with a 2 inch lift. J

Since been digging under the beast ( which I should have done before). It has QT 6 radius arms which gives a 6 degree steering correction. On further measuring, it is closer to a 4 inch lift. I will probably throw on some Pro Comp Es9000s. Thanks foe the link? J
