Default RRC brush guard on D1?

does anyone know if the brush guard from a Range Rover Classic can be fitted to a Discovery?

some other things are interchangable so i thought who knows...

its not a stupid question... just one that would be difficult to answer without prior experience or one each of the vehicles in question... or some very good measurements... i have none of these so i am of no help at all... but its not a ridiculous question...

Well, the wheel base on the 2 trucks is the same, so I'm assuming the frame must be at least pretty similar in length of the frame. Honestly, I'm not 100% sure. Hell, I'm not even 70% sure, but if you ask me I think it should work out. Maybe a little modification required to the mounting of the brush guard via a nice big hammer.

that's what i thought... i feel like the mounting points may not be the same but they might be close. perhaps a bracket or something.

maybe i'll call Atlantic British

a good hammer, and a land rover tool kit (duct tape) should do it. otherwise help from a welder friend

The biggest issue I could see with it is height, the RRC is a bit taller in the front (could look cheesy), and thenmounting points are a whole different issue that would take experience to answer. As a general rule I would say no when it comes to crossing RRC accessories and Disco accessories, but you can always work a miracle with a welder!

I put a RRC GDE bumper on my D1. The frame rails are the same width so it should work.

i like the bumpers like that; beefier than stock but doesn't look like a dune buggy.
