2" lift kit

After talking with several Land Rover experts, I've settled on the Terrafirma HD 2" lift for my 1999 Disco II. Great on road, great off road and a real value. It'll be at least a few months before I get it installed (other things first: drive shafts, rock sliders, etc.), but I'm looking forward to that mod (along with bigger tires!) more than anything.

No kidding, listen to Mike! My truck has been meticulously maintained since new, head gaskets lasted 100k, all maintenance done, all recalls taken care of, seriously the truck still looks new and purrs like a kitten. Was smooth as glass, no vibrations, the picture of perfect health. Took it over to a buddy's transmission shop to do the 100k service and while greasing the one zerk in the front U-joint my buddy says "Uh oh, you have a big problem" Yep, sure enough the U-Joint next to the t-case output had 2 split cups and no needle bearings left in it. We rebuilt it the next day. That was a real close call. Or you can learn the hard way. My tranny guy is really good and knows these LR/Mercedes units like the back of his hand. I'm sure he'd quote you a fair price to put in a new transmission ;-p
