Easy fix - disconnected battery for 5 minutes, hooked back up, now all seems to be working as it should. No more leak, and so far appears I didn't crack a block or loose a sleeve. I won't be trying to put it a new pre-heater kit any time soon. Our temperatures rarely fall into the freezing...

2001 D2, 62k miles All was well until returning from a short drive, noticed the red light above temp gauge was on, and temp gauge was all the way down. Smelled coolant. At home, expansion tank was empty, noticed source of leak was the throttle body heater. I'm afraid there was no coolant...

I've been using Dash Cmd for months on all my vehicles, has worked well. I know Torque pro is very popular, but I've never tried it.

Oh, the rear bumper I put on (back in '07, doesn't seem that long ago) was made by Greg Davis. Don't know if he is still around, but the bumper will be around forever as it is extremely well made. I'd like a 'slim' type front bumper, nothing huge / heavy / obnoxious if you know what I mean...

I've reached the point where there is more Gorilla brand duct tape covering my plastic front bumper than there is front bumper to cover. A few years ago my wife was rear-ended by a pickup traveling at a pretty good clip, and I used that as an opportunity to replace the rear bumper with a heavy...

Ah Ha, found my old Rave. Secondary Air Pump it is, now nicely mounted with galvanized steel wire. Thanks for the answers, John F

2001 Disco. Part location: Under hood behind coolant resevior / fuse box. It is mounted to firewall, is round, about 6" diameter, tapered, 8" long. 3 rubber mounts hold it to a frame. The rubber mounts are broken so this part (which I'm sure is very important) is just hanging there.with a...

Ordered the BFG KM2's. Heavy users seem split between the MTR's and the KM2's, so I should be happy. Turned out a bit cheaper, too, with a current BFG rebate. I'm not sure anything else would have held up any better than the Firestones, what with the limestone rock the mountains out here are...

Losing lugs left & right off my Firestone Destinations, and lots of weather cracking after 5 years. I see Goodyear redesigned the MTR's since I last looked at tires - anyone got anything good or bad to say about the new design? Any other tires I might want to look at that are new or redesigned...

Crawl under, feel on top of the T-case for a small nut protrusion, or use an inspection mirror. If I remember right, most 2001's have the nipple, up to near the end of the production year. My '01, manufactured in March, had it. I used the Aussie AMV electrial actuator kit, but searh here and...

'01 w/ Greg Davis rear bumper here. Had a local muffler shop cut off the resonator and move the exhaust up out of the way. No perceptable noise increase by removing the resonator - just as they told me. They were so sure it wouldn't annoy me that even before they cut it off and re-routed the...

I'm not cool - used the AMV kit from Australia. Still working beautifully. John F LV, NV

Genuine Land Rover, p/n ANR4851. Brand new set of 20, still in individual factory sealed LR labeled baggies. $70 shipped to USA. Paypal preferred. Changed my mind on adding steelies. John F LV, NV '01 D2

Ouch. Hope you feel better now. You are a whole bunch smarter and better looking than anyone else because you've got lockers, OK? Re-read the thread title. Best - no. Good enough - yes. I'd rather haul wine, cheese, crackers, and smoked oysters than welding equipment and spare axles. And...

The TT will also help compensate for camber change from the lift. Some experience squirley handling after even a moderate 2" lift, some don't - depends I think on what camber was present from the factory. In my case, the front TT completely fixed poor steering after lifting - I couldn't keep...
