Also what kind of axles are on the disco. used to the D35 and D44 on my jeep. I do wheel so am possibly looking at upgrades. Lost in this world of discovery. (ok - stupid joke).
Thanks in advance for any help

Also any advice on lifts (brands) and how much is too much on a Disco to be safe - it is my family car (have a 10 month old lil girl)

One more J--P convert, this is great, especialy with the vehicle you found.
The response you got from you ABS brakes is normal.
Yes, at some point you will want to upgrade your rear axles, especially if you drop in a locker. Our diff. housing are not like Dana's, Rover gives us one size and the up grade are diffs or axles only.
As for a lift on a D1, 2 to 3 inches is common, any more then that and you will also have to replace the front and rear drive lines to adjust for drive line angle.
Here is another web site for you, take you time, tease yourself in their huge toy store, think about it and then get back to us.
