    Discovery 1 lift now grinding noise :/

    Hmm. You may be right but would that not be constant grinding? and more so when the gets bumpy? It seems to occur on the flat.. And it's only 1.5" after all.. Keep 'em coming please! :D

    Discovery 1 lift now grinding noise :/

    Hello all. I fitted plus 20mm front and 40mm on back springs on the disco one and now I get an intermittant grinding noise when driving above fifty and only at moderate throttle. Is goes away if I ease off or put my foot down. It's not heavy grinding but can be fairly loud. Any ideas? Thanks...

    Lift disco 1

    HI, looking to do a cheap lift with spacers to get some bigger tires on and wondered if I need to extend the brake lines if I still use the standard shocks? Would the reduced articulation of standard shocks mean that I don't? Thanks in advance!

    NICE!! Oddly mine is identical apart from all the mods. If I had time/money/patience I would do very similar. Looks great! :crazy_driver:

    All Terrain Disco tyres

    Hi everybody! Very quick question, I want to get more clearance under my axels on my Disco 1 on standard suspension. Whats the tallest tyres I can get to fit in the wheel arches? I'm going for either 235/245/265 width tyres. Most prob 245. Thanks in advance! :D

    Disco 1 on the ****

    Hi! Bought a '93 discovery 1 last week and the more I look at it the more I notice that it's definitely listing to one side (drivers side). It seems more noticeable from the back. The springs have been replaced fairly recently so I am not suspecting them initially. Assuming the rh springs...

    19J to 200tdi Conversion - How much??!!!

    Thanks all. Labour intensive I know, and I don't want to do it on the driver either!! Andy, thanks. It was/is a semi hyperthetical question but would still like to know what you'd charge. I put the old 19j back together this morning and the bloody thing still smokes and leaks oil!!! :mad...

    19J to 200tdi Conversion - How much??!!!

    Hi! I have an old 19J which I have been throwing money at recently and appears to be struggling on for now. (Heads off for refacing at the mo). But... I know someday, possibly soon it will finally give up or I'll give up on it. So, I know Glenkoyne quote about £1500 to do the lot and...
