The reason I started looking was. The Aftermarket bumpers were priced so high. I have seen first hand how some made for the DII bumpers looked on the trucks and the fitment didn't look good. I didn't want to modify a $1000-$2000 bumper to make it look right.

How do you open your cold drinks on the trail?😁

D1 bumper on DII
 
I put a factory DI bumper on my 2000 DII. I had to remove the crush cans and then it went right on. Nobody even notices unless I tell them or they are familiar with Discoveries. However I have not gotten into the wireing yet to see if I can make the lights on the D1 bumper work. I've heard that is a problem even thought I don't see why it should be.

Do you know if the D2 and the D1 bumper placement (on the frame) are the same, or are they more spaced apart? I have a 96

Sweet. Thanks for the info. I need to order this

Any cutting or welding required to make that front bumper work or is it all just bolt on? That looks great and I hate aftermarket bumpers.

SUB-SCRIBED!!!!

I want, I want, I want!!! :D

When you get the time, can we get a straight on shot of the front? I'm also curious as to what will need to be done/trimmed when a winch is installed. I really like the way the rear bumper looks too.

Here is one the Green one has yellow springs but stock tires, I'm not sure of how much lift. My truck has 2in spring spacers and 33's

The center of the middle on the very bottom is 19in to the ground. The round factory brace bar is 17in.

Here is a couple of pics of what I trimmed on the front bumper, but after some refitting, it didn't have to be trimmed. So in hind site if I did it again it wouldn't be cut. The front is just brackets.
