Lifting 2004 Discovery?

[Agarabaghi]

Has anyone does a lift to their 2003 / 2004 Land Rover Discovery?

Ive been searching Expedition Exchange and have been very interested in purchasing the Old Man Emu springs and Old Man Emu Shocks.

I am having difficulty figuring out which sets I would need to purchase in order to obtain a 3" or so lift.

Does anyone have suggestions on which ones?

Thanks,

3" is or so will require more than just springs... you will have to change several other parts to keep the Rover happy and you as well.

You can also find good info here: http://www.rovertym.com/

I would also call and talk to Bill at Great Basin Rovers: http://www.greatbasinrovers.com/
Bill knows more about rovers than most people have forgotten.

Thanks for the quick response. I think i might just settle for the standard 2" lift. I just spoke with my friend and his truck is lifted 2" and it faily noticable. So i think 3 might just be an over **** for my needs.

Would u recommend spending the extra on the Old Man Emu shocks over the blistines?

do you know how to offroad or do you think that adding height will automatically give you the knowledge to offoroad.

cause a standard land rover discovery can do alot more then you think.

if I were you I would spend the money on diff guards and front plate guards and off road tires and then build your abilty up and if you still feel you need bigger then go bigger.

nothing is more pathetic then a guy who jacks his rover up and doesnt know how to drive it offroad.

if you think I am kidding go watch scenes from the G4 competition. plain spec discoverys with a winch and some protection underneath.

no lift kits required.

Shocks are a preference... I have bilsteins, but I do a lot of highway miles... if I were doing more off roading, then I would go with OME.
