I would like to get the OME Shocks and springs for my DISCO I TDI(N115 &N44 Shocks / 751 & 762 Spring), could you guys tell me about the lift i´m getting with this setup?
What about Fitting 235/85 tyres with OME ?,do i need to trim the arches ???
Thanks ....

Nacho, I have a similar set up on my DI. If you plan to offroad it, definitely trimming is necessary, I trimmed about 2 inches. Good Luck!

Martinez,

Because the Diesel engine is heavier than the V8, you'll probably have to either put taller springs on like the 767s or fit a spacer in the front.

The 751s up front will likely only givbe you a 1" lift with a HD bumper and winch and a diesel lump...

Thanks,
