I couldn't find my old post so here's a new one
Got my '95 300TDi Disco a few months ago now and just began doing some mods. Here's how she looked at first:

After a few weeks it was time for some new goodies so after a trip to British Offroad I came home with this :


+3" Dobinson's Flexi Coils
+5" Terrafirma Extreme Long Travel Shocks
Extended Brake Hoses
Flexi Flares
Adjustable Panhard
Modified rear shock mounts
After this my head gasket decided to give in so after a week in the mechanic shop getting a new head gasket, timing belt, water pump, 'P' gasket and few other fixes she's running good again so on with the mods
New coils vs old:

New shocks vs old

After some fighting with the coils we got it all in and sitting comfortably:

New ride height

Also new tyres! 33x12.5 r15 Federal Couragia MT's (surprisingly good on the road and in the wet)
New arches drawn up ready to chop :twisted:

Chopped up

This is how she currently sits. Little bit higher than I wanted but I suppose they'll sag down a bit after a while... I hope.

A bit flexed up


Along side my Dad's Navara


Super happy with it up to now. Steering is a lot lighter but not too bad. Coils are just falling out at full flex so i've be putting limiting straps on for my Imbil trip tomorrow and until I can be bothered to build some dislocation cones. Still on the list it,
- Snorkel
- Winch
- Steel Bull Bar
- Rock Sliders
- Rebuild rear bar out of steel
- Air Lockers
- Diff gearing back to normal with the 33's
Loving it though.
