That bumper looks great! Just curious, is your Disco from the EU? I see the Euro plate underneath, and it doesn't have a receiver hitch which I thought all NAS Disco's had.

Cheers

Phil

Phil, it was imported from Spain. I do have an NAS receiver hitch that I pickedup second hand but need to cut the fuel tank skid plate to fit it.

I got bored at lunch today so I finalized the wiring to my power block. I just need to find some early Disco fog/aux light switches to finish the interior portion of the install.

Installed a new set of OME nitrocharger sport shocks front & rear yesterday on the 96. The ride is like night and day with the new shocks installed. My 57 year old body was not happy afterwards, thank goodness my Son came to help out.

Great looking basket. Classic high capacity design.

I keep telling myself I am going to get out and take some photos to post. Maybe today is that day..

I like it to. I got it for free, so that makes it even better! Ive been trying to figure out the manufacturer for a while now with no luck. I had to cut the legs off and mount the basket to Frontrunner bars for it to fit my Discovery. My measurments show it would fit a Range Rove Classic. The tubing in 1in / 25mm od and made out of aluminum.


Wish I had the mounting bracket.



One sticker is for Kangaroo Accessories 1-800-594-7498-88. No luck contacting them. Another says Discovery Down Under and last La Ruta Maya 94.



Had to cut these off to fit on the Discovery.
