I already have a discovery OME dampner and was wondering if there is a kit in which I wouldn't have to buy a d-90 dampner.

Although I would eventually like to put the thing back on.   Chris Marcel (Gumarcel) Member Username: Gumarcel Post Number: 185 Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Friday, April 04, 2003 - 12:05 pm:    haha, well brian i would rather have it on the vehicle i guess....   Chris Marcel (Gumarcel) Member Username: Gumarcel Post Number: 186 Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Friday, April 04, 2003 - 12:07 pm:    brian how does it drive without the SD?   Brian Friend (Brianfriend) Senior Member Username: Brianfriend Post Number: 600 Registered: 09-2002 Posted on Friday, April 04, 2003 - 01:11 pm:    It drives fine but the steering is a little fast and when I hit a bump I get a little bit of steering shake. But it has been of my truck for about 9 mo. now and I don't notice it much anymore.   Andy Thoma (Andythoma) Member Username: Andythoma Post Number: 126 Registered: 01-2003 Posted on Friday, April 04, 2003 - 01:25 pm:    Look at Safari Guards or ECR's, they use the stock damper, double check that though. ECR's is nice, but I don't think you can buy their set up without them installing it. It does more than just relocate the damper. Also check the tech section, there is plans for one that uses the stock type of damper. Rockware and the CB type of set ups use that defender mount, RTE's only works wit their heavy duty tie rod, so you have to get that first.
