Disco 2's are great trucks. I try to be VERY selective of who I recommend them to as a Daily driver though
I dont even think I would be allowed to buy one, I've never been to Honolulu( isnt that were they all come from? I think so based on the spare tire covers I see). Anyways I decided to wait until Ford releases the Sequoia. Think Excursion only bigger with a 6.4L twin turbo diesel. just what the market needs!!! :thumbup: Ford no wonder we've lost a billion and a half dollars in the first 9 months of this year. Anyways back on topic, Mog axles Four link front, three or four link rear, with coilovers all around? I'm not real familiar with them are the mog axles portal style? Dont you have to use Mog wheels? I thought they had a pretty specific lug pattern.
Disco's are imported through normal inport distribution.
Ford and GM are really blowing my mind with some of their decisions at the moment. It seem to me that Chrysler is the only american car company (of the original big 3 that is doing anything at all right). You are joking about Ford coming out with something larger than the Excursion right? They couldn't sell the Excursion they really are not dumb enough to come out with something larger are they?
Probably be a very close to stock 3 single triangulated link rear (no panhard rod/trackbar) with slight modifications to arm length and joints to gain some flex and new bracketry due to new axles. The front will probably be modified to a non triangulated 3 link with pan hard rod. Very normal upgrade on modified rovers and very simple, basically off the shelf part (not that I will use off the shelf parts but will build my own but use what has been proven to work well, assuming I have enough lift to not need to change too much).
Yes, Mog axles are Portal design (about 4" drop and gear reduction at wheels). standard are 20" wheels, I will likely go to custom wheels (with less off set to keep the wheels as close to the body as possible) and I think I might be able to go down to a 17" wheel (not sure if I can without doing a disk conversion or not yet, still alot of details to work out). I am having difficulty finding the tires I want in the sizes I want that will work on a 17 or 20" wheel. The IROK is the only thing I have found so far. Due to off-set, lug patern, and beadlocks the wheels will most likely be completely custom.
