I just got a great deal on a factory brush bar for my Disco II but there are no installation instructions.
While I am waiting for delivery, can anyone tell me if I will need to cut the bumper to accomodate the mounting brackets, and if so, if you have the instructions to do so? Any photos would also help.
I thought this would be a simple bolt-on job but now realize that there is no direct opening to the frame????
Appreciate the help.
Cheers,

It is not as easy as you think (without the instructions). Check your e-mail, a have a copy of the Landrover instruction book...Dave |

Hey Guys, I can't fax the whole world the 11 pages of instructions. My phone bill would be huge. If someone can put them up onto this or another web site, I will fax them one more time so everybody can download them. If you have a Phoenix area code, I will fax them over, just e-mail me a LOCAL phone number....Sorry....Dave |

just went through this a while back.
1. Pull off the bumper (probably might be albel to cut one without pulling it off)and cut a hole where the brush bar extends out from the bumper. You don't need a big one but you need extra room for your wrench
2. The problem i ran into was my brush bar didn't come with mounting brackets - you will have to buy them from the dealer if they didn't ship - cost me $50. These attach to the frame - you will have to remove the recovery hitch. You can now attach the brush bar to the extensions on the bracket.
If i had known what I was doing the whole job would have taken no more than about 4hrs but I spent alot of time trying to figure out why the bar would attach like the DIs do. Good luck. |
