hey,
first i'd like to say hey, this is my first time posting and i am a new first time landrover D1 owner. I just bough a 97' w/ about 80K on the clock and am looking to get straight into building it up. I've built up a few jeeps but i've always wanted LR and now i get the chance to work on my own. I had a couple general questions about lifting discoverys. How much lift would i need to be able to run 285/75/16's with moderate trimming? Also, at what amount of lift do you need to worry about the replacing the drive shafts? and finally will the stock axles and gearing be fine with those tires or do i need to do some major overhaul. I know these are real newbie questions and I apologise for retreading stuff thats probably real basic to you guys but i want to do this right and figured you guys would have lots of knowledge. Latres...
