Fuel tanks for early rangie's (the limit of my experience is 1984, but should aply for later year RRC's than this) are mounted differently to the plastic fuel tank in disco's.

Sill tanks for rangie will fit disco, unless the disco has stuff under the sills for abs, tc etc.

I think that a long Ranger Disco tank will not fit a plastic tank Range Rover as the Disco chassis rails are a little further apart.

I recently put a Disco Hayman Reece rear towbar on my 92 Range Rover , and I had to shim the LH mount with washers. The Disco has a step mount inside the chassis rail , but I think there is a small difference in addition.

bull bar from a rangie wont fit due to the curve of the Disco front end ...
I put a Disco winch bar on my 88 Range Rover and it stuck out a fair bit .

The bars are different as the front of the disco is curved and the rangie is straight.
I have a rangie bull bar on my disco. It is a custom job from arb and was designed to fit really tight for comp work.
