Hi there.
Well first jack up the rear end of car then block up the front wheels (front and rear) and put stands under the rear jacking points STILL keeping the pressure on the jack, clamp the rear brake pipe that comes from the body to the rear axle and clamp with a small clamp
but dont tighten to tight remove the flex pipe and also the rear shockers from the axle ,then the spring u bolts and then the hand brake cable from the center adjuster,now it should only leave your tail shaft 4 nuts/bolts.
But why are you removing the rear/axle????

Remove rear wheel and brake drum remove 4 bolts on axle housing axle and bearing will slide out . some times you have use slide hammer puller as the bearing is a tight fit.

a Ford BA Falcon

towbar on a disco 2 is a straight forward bolt on job it attaches to the rear chassis and crossmember any good quality towbar kit will come with all bolts and washers you need plus instructions . if you get genuine landrover electrics they plug straight in without having to cut or join any wires.

hope this helps

Pop the Hatchback open and remove the connectors
from the top of the bumper cover.

Optional Step: Using a Floor Jack, raise both sides
of the car in the back, supporting both sides with
jack stands, and remove the rear wheels.

Using Torx Bits, remove the inner rear wheel well
lining.

Get behind the rear wheel well and loosen the bolts
holding the bumper brackets on. They're pretty
difficult to find and remove. Be Patient. Do the
same to the other side.

Remove the rear bumper cover by pulling the cover
outward from the part nearest the wheel on both
sides. Once removed, take off the 2 black mounting
brackets from the bumper cover.

remove the rear bumper and the bar bolts to the back panel, some have a stay that bolts up forward. you might have to cut a slot in the bottom of the bumper to clear the towbar.

Yes you do need to remove the bumper, remove the 2 torxs screws in each wheelarch, 1 upper bolt and 1 lower bolts behind the wheelarch liner each side. two nuts inside car each side along upper edge, 4 nuts behind trim on rear edge, and 3 plastic plugs along lower edge. Hope this helps
