Hey everyone, I just recently bought a 2001TD5 Disco and were wondering if anyone can provide some info on good
suspension setups and tyre pressures?
I have been looking at two
suspension systems, Koni and Ridepro, both with a 2 inche lift. Koni have a generally good rep, but I have heard very good reports about the Ridepros...mainly that they have a very large
bore (45mm) and are pretty tough. Any tips on what effect a 2 inch lift will have on the geometry of the steering etc? I have an ARB steel bar and winch up front.
The second part of my query is about tyre pressures. The reccommended pressures in the manual I think are 28 front and 38 rear. This is a bit unusual and am wondering if this is mainly to maintain the supply ride of the disco. Does this affect tyre wear? I am running 235 BF Goodrich all terrains.
Any advise will be appreciated...
Cheers
Angus
