This is my first time on this site. I have a 2000 Discovery ll and I am considering installing a ARB bumper and a winch. My concern is will it interfer with the operation of my ACE system and I have been told that it will cause a problem with my windshield washer resevoir. Has anyone successfully made this type installation?

Nick, I cannot speak on the ACE issue, as my 2000 does not have that option, but all else equal, the washer bottle will not be affected, the ARB allows for the factory fender wells to be re attached, unlike some other bumpers out there. Mine worked out great, just waiting to lift it!

Nick, you will need to add stiffer springs on the front, at the very least if you add the ARB. This can be handled by your dealer as usually they are crabby about doing these things.

The ACE itself will not be affected.

As for the the washer, it will not be affected.
