It almost looks too shiney to off road - but so did mine and the guilt has gone now!

I would suggest the Off Road Armory 4.5 inch kit with the arms and all the kit you need as when you tot up the bits on their own it doesn't seem too expensive.

Also, we all end up wanting more, like bigger tyres as time goes on once you have a Rocklobster etc. So buying the bigger lift begins to make more sense.

Just remember to go wider with spacers of offset wheels to keep it stable.

It wont be shiney for long!

I've been looking at the off road armory stuff but wasnt sure which lift to go for. 3" or 4.5". If I want the whole lot at once I will have to wait till I sell the Disco as I dont have the funds at the moment. :(
