Looking at this Disco as a camping/hunting vehicle. I will have around 3k left in the budget to spend on it. This will be my 1st Landy and I know nothing about them.

Steve, youre a legend.

If I can't get a mate to weld it up for me, and I end up having to go to an auto engineer or smash repair, do you reckon they will want to have it engineered?

I hit a pothole in my 96 coil zook fairly severely today, and forced my shock up through the top of the strut tower. It has torn the top of the tower completely open. I would like to hear ...

Strut tower failure.

I hit a pothole in my 96 coiler fairly severely today, and forced my shock up through the top of the strut tower. It has torn the top of the tower completely open.

I would like to hear from anyone else that has done this and would love to hear how you went about repairing it.

Cheers all, Wellsey.

So it looks like the leafy case is going to be the best option for me now, as I just got a price for a new drive chain through a mate who is a transmission mechanic - 465 bucks, trade price!

Anyone else have trouble with suzisport trailing arm bushes?

I have some aftermarket bushes for my trailing arms from suzisport, but the suckers wont press in. I have completely pressed out the shagged ones (yes I have got the steel outer as well), but the new ones wont press in without tearing off the flange. I am using a hydraulic press so there is stacks ...

Cheers Steve, just getting my options lined up. The best road I think will be to swap over to a leaf case. Will make it a lot easier to fit reduction gears down the track.

Cheers guys,

So as an alternative, to avoid having to swap cases, can I get reduction gears to suit the chain driven case?

Transfer swap on coily

G'day people! So what I thought was my diff was actually the chain in my coily transfer slipping. So, now I have the coily transfer out, Im not going to bother putting the pos back in.

Swaybar removal/disconnection

Is it worth disconnecting the swaybars on my coily sierra for offroad?

How badly will it affect my on-road handling? I have a 2inch sus lift and a 2 inch body lift.

If I disconnect them, do they have to come all the way out?

Anyone else done this?

Please forgive my ignorance here, but how the hell does the water get in with the breathers fitted? Just sucks in thru the seals? Also, can I get the marine grease from any auto shop, or do I have to get it from a marine supplier?
