    ACE Removed

    It could be that, its my first Land Rover and my first 4x4 but it just feels far too dangerous. I was on the M6 sweating at 60mph and seen a D2 fly past at 80+ and thought there is no way his feels like this and hes doing that speed unless he ha a death wish! I might be paranoid as ive been...

    ACE Removed

    How is the removal done? Ive recently bought a TD5 Disco and the ACE has been removed ( i can see where the pump was and the empty disconnected reservoir behind the PAS) Mine handles like s*@t on the motorway or at speed. Is this not related to the ACE? or has the previous owner taken some...

    ACE removed

    Hi All, I recently bought a Discovery TD5(99) and all has been well so far. The only problem is ( and i noticed it only once driving on the motorway) is that it handles like a big jelly once at speed. At first i thought perhaps something was wrong with the steering? Then upon further...

    conduit

    As a spark of 15 years, I can honestly say I gave never seen 50mm flexible conduit. Or 30mm for that matter. Good luck with that, and forget CEF. They struggle to provide the most common items let alone stuff like this. ( copex is the most commonly used brand name so try searching that? )

    Bush Wackers ?

    Bush cables or limb risers in US. Electrical wholesalers are the best bet as they are catenary wires with a few swivels and brackets. Check www.discovery2.co.uk for a parts list and fitting instructions. They are pretty useless but do look the part. If they're good enough for camel trophy who...
