Now a new member. Seems like every time I had a problem with the rover, I'd end up here, searching the forum for answers to my questions. My last question was, Why not become a member? So, here I am with my bone stock 96 Disco SD 4.0, running on BFG M/T's that's been in the family for about 8 years. I have never had a complaint about the capabilities of this vehicle. Mud, snow, sand and road, It has proven itself time and again.
Hopefully here in the near future, I will be looking to replace the slightly sagging suspension with a new 2" lift. And many thanks to Disco Mike for his many posts regarding lifts! It has become forever burned into my brain, "OME, 751's in the front, 762's in the back, HD shocks. 4 hours in the driveway on a weekend....Done!" So, the choice is made, and here soon maybe a couple more inches of ground clearance.
With all that said, its time to submit this and move on to the forums.

Thanks
Tim

Welcome to the group, look forward to seeing your posts in the Discover section.
Will you be running a winch and bumper, if not use the779 front springs cause the 751's will be a little tall without that extra weight.

Thanks, and yes, a bumper and winch are on the list. A little further down the road, say six months or so. I may hold off on the lift for a bit until I have the total package. Thanks for the info about the 779's should the budget take a dump.
