Any one have any ideas on where i can get a front skid plate for my series 1 Disco. besides ordering one from rover park boys in Alberta.

Andrew
P.S Put the new B.F.G mudders on today 245/75/16 and the Disco didnt make it into my underground parking so off they came! CRAP!
Lifted the Disco ove 2.5 inches and i only had an 1 inch and a half to play with.

Check with Aart Vanderstar in Langley. He can be found in the Supporters section of the site. I was up in his store room awhile back and there looked like there was one for a Rangey that could be easily adapted to a Disco I.

Take the Mudders off your Landy!!! What are you crazy!!
Better option is to put that "for Sale" sign out & move to the land of taller parking........
Or,
How about those in-cab auto deflate / inflate tyre systems like the Hummers have :idea:
That way you can deflate your tyres to 12 psi for parking inside, then inflate them back up when you leave the car park? 8)
Gotta leave the Mudders on........ :wink:

If anyone is interested Rover park boys have the front skid plate for the Disco and Rangie for $269.00 they order them out of the UK.

So sounds like Rover Park Boys is the place to go on this. Thought so. They're pretty good guys to deal with, not to mention the 7% savings...

Hi Andrew,
That really is a PIA regarding your garage / tires size issues. I just bought a house a while ago with a garage that is also too low. :x
Hey front skid plate good idea, in fact I’m looking forward to installing one as well with my new winch bumper. Have you looked into Differential Guards? They can be relatively inexpensive…unless you go with a Q.T. Services set-up.
