Front and rear driveshaft from GBR. The peace of mind that they won't explode is quite nice.

3" Britpart heavy duty coil springs. Carries a massive load and still runs like it's stock.

Britpart is hit or miss, it's not necessarily the quality, it's the quality control. Some of their parts are quite nice.

I would have to say my Walnut Veneer Door panel with copper piping trim. No one else has it and I made the custom wood handle. Looks tricked out and fits with the Luxury styling of Land Rover. My second would by my ARB Half Rack. I dont use it much...cause the rover will not fit in the garage, buy it looks way cool...and I so need a tent to keep the lions at bay. Plus it gives you a destination when you have a ladder and rear step.

What are you planning on using your Disco for, what year is it and how many miles on it?
My main suggestion is to inspect/ rebuild or replace your front drive shaft so it doesn't fail and take your tranny with it.
Well mine is an 03 and im only asking this to get a feel for the folks on this forum. Thats all and the othe ? You asked the driveshaft is already done and it has 98k in miles and ive owned Betty for about 10 months now as a DD
