I recently bought a 2001 Disco 2 and want to install a genuine wraparound brush guard. I am not too mechanically inclined and wanted to know what's involved in the installation. Is it a bolt on or is there cutting/drilling involved?

I have the same question (installing a wraparound brush bar) on a 2003 Disco 2. I was told you have to take off the bumper to attached. One concern would be the air bag operation if I mis-installed.

If you buy a brush bar kit then it is fairly straightforward. You will have to remove the bumper though and attach a set of brackets. If you don't buy the kit you will need to buy these brackets separately from the dealer. I learned th hard way.

You will probably have to cut a hole in the bumper as well. Not that hard.

Total job time if you know what to do.... about 4-5 hours.
