 Land Rover Discovery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As with all Land Rover vehicles designed since the Series models which had switchable 2 and 4 wheel drive, the transmission is a permanent four wheel drive system, with a locking centre differential at the transfer box.
Land Rover developed 'cross-linked' air suspension to solve this problem- when needed, the suspension mimics the action of a beam axle (as one wheel drops, the other rises).
Land Rover and many aftermarket companies have developed off-road equipment such as winch, bull-bars, under-body protection kits, snorkels and roof-racks for the new Discovery, to optimise its off-road use.
