Default Advice on some purchases

Hello,

My wife is looking to buy some replacement parts for her 2001 Land Rover Discovery 2. She is looking to buy some new Springs and shocks for all four corners. She has picked out terra firma as her choice for suspension parts is there a place that's better to buy them at for better price? She also would like the 2 inch lift option will this interfere or damage any part of the vehicle?

The other part we need is an exhaust. She's looking to buy at least the resonator and Muffler.
Is there a better place to make this purchase?

Used parts are a possibility as long as they aren't to old, damaged etc.

Perhaps someone just put shocks on their rover and it was in an accident etc.

Tires. But I'm pretty sure this is going to be a local purchase unless someone lives near PA, I'll drive to look at them.

I have the TF 3" lift with the longer shocks and brake lines. Then a little more lift from pucks This resulted in me needing an adjustable Panhard bar to center the axle and changed the steering; it also eats front driveshafts.

A TF 2" lift isn't going to require any changes except maybe to be sure that the abs lines are free. Longer shocks will ensure she keeps a comfortable ride. I also got longer brake lines but I think you're fine with the stock lines and 2 inches.
