Default RE: 3" lift necessary changes


ORIGINAL: mrcrptguy

I have a 3 inch suspension and 2 inch body lift and only needed to replace the front driveshaft. 98 Disco. I have 33x12.50x15 all terrains, even with all that lift they still scrub a little on the fenders when the goin gets tough.
What lift did you get? RTE 2"? RTE 3"? OME lift?

If you are talking about that size tire on a old D1, you will need to be looking at new diffs, replacing the 2 spider gear stock with 4 or you will gernade you diff.

The lift was on it when i bought it but I have a 96 Disco that is completely stock that I have compared it to. It looks as if everything is stock on my lifted 98 except for the front driveshaft. I have put thousands of miles on it with my 33's on and off road and haven't had a problem with my diff's yet, besides replacing the rear pinion seal due to a clogged vent tube. The truck has a set of procomp shocks.
