More leg room in a Discovery II?

Sufficient legroom isn't just Disco II's, Disco I's have the same issue. I test drove a Mitsubishi Montero a few weeks ago and it had the same problem. I feel yer pain. It's like there needs to be an extra inch and a half of seat travel which isn't there. The Disco is a design of compromises because they started with the Range Rover chassis and worked backwards, and it's a 100" wheelbase which doesn't leave a lot of length to work with. One reason the seat bottoms are as short as they are. Let us know if turning the seat track around works for you.

I removed the stop studs in the rails and added some flat iron to extend the motors. It will create a lot of leg room but remember what you gain in the front detracts from the back. I can't find the original instructions on this. The site is no longer available. But here is part of the step.

The original site seems to be gone, but I found this link to a PDF of the original instructions.
