Turn Stops can be different. 16inch wheel equipped D2's had one size turn stop & 18inch wheel equipped D2's had another. However LR being LR sometimes got that wrong so it's basically a 50/50 thing. All you have to do to make custom turn stops is get the same size threaded bolt, and either use washers or a sleeve to get the preferred amount of turn you want without rubbing.

I've got this on my Disco 2 cheat sheet...
Shorten 29mm Steering Stops: 23mm stops LR part #FTC5151 or M12 Hex head bolt Grade 10.9 add washers or nut to a size 23mm length. Decreases turning radius by 1.5 meters.
*EDIT... I corrected the part number to FTC5151.

Yes, you could. I on the other hand was tired of the crappy turn radius on my 16" wheel equipped 00 so I took the stops out and threw them away. No major detrimental effects.
Years ago when hot rods came with really small wheels and tires we always had rubbing when you put big tires on, have worn most of the blackwall off before - still no giant problems.
