Is there a DIY walk through on how one would do this? Thank you!

I just googled after his comment and found this - https://customerhelp.co.za/automotiv...e-disco-2.html
There are old threads around I just had no idea...

It’s just a long stud that threads into the knuckle on both sides. Short ones are like 1inch long and the longer ones are like 1 1/4 or 1 1/2. Use a 17mm open end & just remove one, then go get a grade 8 metric bolt to match it & some washers or a small spacer. Then add washers until the tire doesn’t rub & bingo it’s custom setup for your D2 & you will notice your D2 isn’t like the RMS Titanic anymore when turning.

Are these the 701's? They look great! Thinking i'm gonna get the matte black ones.
It's a shame more manufacturers don't make wheels for our pattern. I would love some of the new steelies that fifteen52 released recently.

Updating this thread in the hopes someones search in the future will lead them here -
D2 Steering Stop Bolt Size and Thread Pitch - m12 x 1.75
I replaced my long ones with 30mm length bolts then added a nut as a spacer - end result is about a 6mm shorter bolt - similar to oem - 29 vs 23mm from what I've read.

After hitting a trail that I got invited to which I didn't know it was supposed to be "EASY" but I had a rough time due to the my tires were hitting the fenders. Now it's time to put a 2" lift just in case we hit another trail to our camping spots in the future.
My budget on the high side but seems like kits are affordable but I dont want to make a mistake buying something cheaper just because.
Based on my research, I would need a HD Lift Kit but some folks said it was rough and I want to make sure its comfortable for my kids and the wife. Note that we are more pavement people to get to places and try to avoid long dirt trails to get to a camping spot.
Here's what I have on my truck so far.
Mostly stock
RTT (170lbs)
ARB front Bumper - 60lbs
Rear steel bumper
255/70-16 KO2's
Method Wheel - 16x8
Misc Tools - My tool box. VIAIR etc...
Recovery gears
and lots of camping gears - mostly clothes and sleeping bags.
I still have to install a few things in the future
ARB Winch
Front Runner Roof Rack
(Misc cool gears on top)
and random guards under the car.
Does anyone have the same set up and lift you are using?
I am planning on going with 2" LIFT - OME Med Springs, with TF HD Shocks because they seem to be longer travel than OME and also buying airbag helper just to help with the weight and it seems like this will be a smoother ride versus just straight TF HD KIT.
