Default Lift kit versus automatic front stabilizer?

My D2 has a power front anti-roll bar. Do US Discos also have that feature?

Does the automatic front anti-roll bar with its hydraulic rams and all still work OK once a suspension lift is installed? After just a couple of weeks seat time in my new Disco 2 td5 I must say that the system really works well, as body roll is kept in check which benefits stability considerably.

It would be a pity to sweat like a pig for hours putting in a 2-3" suspension lift, then find that the front stabilizer bar system is freaking out.

Anybody BTDT?

If you are talking about ACE with it's front and rear rams on the sway bars, yes, you can go up to 2.5 to 3"s while keeping the ACE, I did it on my tuck 9 years ago and it is still working fine.

I guess I was talking about that ACE - Active Cornering Enhancement but I didn't know I was

2.5" is all I want, so that's is good news indeed.

Very nice rig.

Does that ACE hoohaw turn itself off in low range? It really works great on the road, but off-road it would be wrong-headed, eh?
