Default Discovery 5 lift kit by Johnson Rods

Our Johnson Rod 1.5 inch lift kit for the Discovery 5 has been a very popular upgrade. Since we introduced the kit in Mid 2017, it has been a favorite around the world with hundreds of satisfied customers. With the lift, the ride and feel remains excellent and our customer feedback is very positive for both on and off the road. The 1.5 inch lift will give you additional ground clearance to run trails faster in normal mode. Then when needed, switch to off road mode for added clearance. This lift will allow a larger off road tire such as a 275-55-20.

Many Land Rover dealers use our lift in their showrooms as seen below in an upgrade package. Our lift is preferred because of the quality of construction and materials that can stand up to extreme hot and cold conditions without breaking down. We use 3/16 high quality stainless steel which provides strength and durability. Our rubber attachment points are extra thick just like the original Land Rover part which insures a tight non slip connection and which makes them less susceptible to cracking and breaking down under harsh conditions. In fact, the rubber has a high resilience and tensile strength, abrasion resistance and operates effectively in temperatures between -60 degrees F to 180 degrees F.

What is amazing is how much this lift and a set of AT/MT tires enhances the overall look of the vehicle.

Here are a few dealer pics with 275-55-20 Goodyear Dura Tracs.

The BFG KO2 tire has been one of the most popular brands for those looking for an All Terrain tire.

There are many good brands out there as we show on our tire size chart on the website. Here is a great example of our 1.5 inch lift and the BFG KO2 275-55-20 AT tires.

We are always looking for feedback on tires so if you have a brand you really like let us know how its performing.

Rather than going to the expense of getting new wheels, we have seen many users opting to powder coat their stock wheels black or in the case of the picture below, desert sand.
The rig below is running Falken Wild Peak AT 275/55/20.

Are there any photos of LR5s in the low/normal/road position with these lift kits?
