When we took the springs and shocks out, the suspension dropped more than it normally would. With the springs in place and new shocks holding the axle, everything is back to normal.
You should mention to lose and retighten all the bushings on the radius arms once the car is standing on the ground again. If they stay tightened up in the stock position they will most likely fail soon ;)
its a shame the the u.s only got the v8 they really missed out on the td5s. i think Australia got the best deal, we got the td5 and seeming we have a hot climate we dont have salt on our roads so our landrovers are completely rust free is the chassis and under body
Yeah I have a disco with a V8 in America and I love it other than poor fuel economy it has tons of power not just low-end torque. Those moments when really deep sad you want to run 30 mph or you have some really good mud terrains and you can spin enough to clean them out. I see the TD5 struggling to spend as much with barely 135 horsepower even with a remap it only comes up a little and the factory torque is the same on a 4.0 as the TD 5 and the 4.6 is even higher. For something that weighs almost 5,000 lb even those V8 are underpowered by today's standards so I would hate to have something with such little power besides fuel economy
@@tserenjargaltsedendash3632you can run 285 75 16 with that lift I do it with a 2in lift and it's fine. Not too wide it all everyone just act weird about these because they are hard to fit tires he look at what Jeeps have and the things they can do and you realize 11.5 in wide is not a big deal it's not too wide it's a great contact patch people are silly they are all theoretical just go out and find out for yourself off road
Greetings from Poland!
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Well done, well explained. Only brake hoses look quite tense.

@@GoliathOffRoad maybe with the flex you will be problem with brake hoses, I think.
I nad the same issue and after installing a 2 inch lift kit - I instaluje extended brak hoses.
Thanks for sharing, very nice project and the rover looks amazing
Very nice video thank you…I am about to order my kit.
Hi Maciek ! Car seems to be in great shape !
nice job! looks clean!
Break hoses will need to be changed to braided break hoses or they will break at full flex
New braided brake lines are already waiting to be put on the Rover in the next videos.
man i wish I had a lift to work on my rover. I'd probably actually want to do all of the projects I have in mind lol
Lift is very helpfull. We love it!

Good point! Thanks, Daminik!
also get a brake line extension kit
cool about to buy a disco 2 bumper from you guys!!!
Wow made me feel confident enough to do myself, any one else have any preferred shocks to use?

looks like the break lines are going to break?!
Yes. We already have new ones waiting to be installed, which we will show in the future videos.
Other bills I see them unbolt everything and pull it all out the bottom shock and Spring.
Were the springs labelled ps and ds for the passengers and drivers sides?
No. Not in our kit, at least.
Hello from California! Are you guys the same company that manufacturers the goliath steel bumper for the Discovery 2?
That is correct
yes, we manufacture them.
@@GoliathOffRoad can't wait to buy one for my Disco!! Love the style!
@@georgefrancis1968 We are glad you like it! ;)
Any vibrations from the prop after the lift?
No vibrations so far.
How you like it? Any problems or any other parts needed to add?
Only parts that we added are longer braided brake lines, other than that the rover drives amazing.
Se le podra agregar un kits de elevacion para logra unas 2 pulgadas mas ?
I only need the front ones done, if I install the same type just to the front, will this make them uneven with the back and create a problem?
Yes, if you install bigger springs just on the front, it will be much lower on the back.
Where I can Get this lift kit? And which is the brand you're using?
Lift is made by terrafirma and we got it from Lucky 8 off road.
Hola amigos , donde consigo ese kits ?
You need longer brake hoses
We already have longer, steel braided brake lines waiting to be installed.
please what size of those wheels?
I meant tire size. Is it 255/70/16?
The new tires are Kenda Clever A/T in 265/75R16, the tires in this video are stock size tires, I believe 255's
