Trusty mechanic says leak is coming from font engine timing belt cover gasket and the coolant is walking out through the bolts. Also might have a leak at the plennum gasket. He called a indy LR guy who said there's a TSB on this and the DII's are known for this problem. Already fixed the...

Non-tech, sorry. Green 99-02 DII lifted w/winch in Spry, PA (York). You here? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know this doesn't belong in Tech, but this spot gets most attention. Any other Dwebbers close to York, PA?

2001 DII with 91k on the clock. 2" OME lift, winch bumper and winch, no other mods, rest is stock and presumably original. I've had the truck for a while now (4 years), but didn't get it new from LR dealer. A few months ago, my mechanic informed me that I had greese on my rear disc (RR)...

Ok, I've got a 2001 Disco II with 90K on the clock a 2" OME lift, new bumper and 12K lb winch. Soon I will install 4:10/4:11 or 3:90 gears and diff locks (not necessary, but since I'm in there). So, after all that, what then becomes the weakest link that the highest potential for failure...

'01 D2 with OME HD springs and shocks. Forget where I ordered. Have less than 10k on the set-up. Only problem, is I ordered what OME makes so passenger is shorter than driver. It leans. Do I: 1. fit a spacer to the passenger side 2. refit passenger side iwth a driver side If 2, is there...

2001 D2 with 88k on the clock. heading on a 12 hour trip to the carolina's this week. truck is at mechanics for usual maintenance and pre-trip check. Truck needs a right rear axel seal. It's leaking a bit, but mechanic says safe to drive on trip. Will be fixed upon return to PA. What all...

2001 Disco II overheating. My trusty mechanic (not an indy LR mechanic, but great guy) discovered a severe leak after having to tow the truck to his shop. It's coming from the worn gasket of the throttle body cooler. What is this, and where can I get one? He was unable to locate one at his...

What's the outside/inside diameter of steel piping/tubing used on roof racks? Or, your recommendation. Going for strong, but light weight. Thanks, Jake

Would like to hear from those of you who have changed the gearing in your diffs to 4:11 or something else (GBR, etc.). What difference has this made? I've got a 2001 DII with 2" OME lift and 265 coopers. I tow a military cargo trailer from time to time and it struggles when loaded. I also...

Taking the Disco II to monthly ride at Paragon on Nov. 5. Anybody else going?

Need a right front fog light for stock D2 SE front bumper (2001).

I've searched a bit, but can't get a clear answer to my question. Are the DII Fender Flares known for fading? Mine aren't just fading, but are getting rough too. So when I wash them, I have to be careful what I use or it rubs off onto the flare. Such that, if I were to use a paper towel...

I'll be in Steamboat for a business trip in early Oct. I have to be there between Oct. 4-13. The flanking weekends are open. I've done this trip before (although to southern CO) and have flown into several differnt locations (SLC, ABQ, DEN) and driven to my destination. Everytime, I fail to...

Anybody hear of a durable off-road side step or single step (similar to the flip ups on the 109's) for a lifted disco II that would be durable enough for off-road use? Some of the sliders might work, but thought I would ask first in case someone has one in the works. Some kind of flip up or...

No, I wouldn't dare post another question about tires sizes and will these fit my particular disco. My question has to do with load rating and which ones people are using. Looking at new tires in 265/75/16 Cooper S/T (or starfire/micky thompson equiv.). I have a local shop that is great and...

I don't post much, but do read quite a bit. I just wanted to post a quick message about my experience this weekend with installing the OME 2" springs and shocks on a '01 DII. I decided to do this myself. I'm not a mechanic (biologist) and haven't done much like this on cars. Work on my MGB a...

Just bought OME springs and shocks for 2001 DII. Apparently after reading and searching this site and suppliers information, the springs on the drivers side are taller. Won't this give the Disco a tilted look? Why is this done? Assuming I am getting 1.5-2 inches of lift, do I need to do...

Under the technical section of this site there is a description for the installation of a solenoid actuated CDL. However, the write-up doesn't include a description on what year of vehicle it will work on. Looks like a great setup. Does anyone have any experience with this setup? I would...

In the October 2004 issue of Land Rover Owner International on pages 128-129 there is an article about offroading in my home state of Pennsylvania. The article begins in Gettysburg, close to home, and then moves on to the Casparis Quarry Trail near Connellsville, PA. Which is south-east of...
