    99 D2 running rough after coil pack replacement

    Verified all new coils are firing? Parts being new don't always equate to functioning/good.

    Long travel rear sway bar on D1

    Over three years later, but not near as much wheeling as I used to do, and the Dodge truck links are still going strong. They are a great choice. I'm not doing the aggressive offroading these days as I have in the past, so I'm firming up the suspension (like replacing soft/blue and yellow poly...

    Rockware Catalytic Skid Plate Discovery 1

    Just so you know, these won't prevent your cats from getting stolen. I used to think the same till someone posted somewhere it happened to them. I have one and recently took a look to notice it's still possible.

    Wheel Selection

    Might help to share what vehicle... D1 and D2 wheel bolt patterns are different.

    265/75R16 BFGoodrich KO2 tires w/ Method 701 wheels

    I'd have already done this deal, if my new-ish 255/85s and rock ringed NATO steelies were worthy of a trade... and they were within driving distance. I'm not doing the hard stuff anymore and would happily downsize a little in tire size and use lighter wheels.

    I'm surprised they haven't sold.

    D1 No Start

    I presume you're talking about the starter? Once in 18 years has mine hung up and needed persuading.

    Adjustable panhard rod - educate me :)

    I just installed rubber OEM bushings in mine today. Much nicer than the yellow polys that have been in there for three years, meaning the rubber ones are much more firm feeling. To answer your question: Yes, but there's a twist. :) The Britpart DA1130 has ends sized to 35mm, which is the outer...

    Discovery 2 super odd temp issue in -10 degree weather

    Air pocket around the temp sensor during the really hot moments? I was in the frozen coolant camp, but wanted to offer another thought.

    Shocks to long

    If I'm reading this correctly, you are using the shocks as the suspension travel limiters. Don't do that. If you need to limit, use limiting straps or let the springs do that by clamping them to the mounts.

    D1 motor mount replacement

    There should be write ups on here. I've done mine a few times. Yes, you will have to jack the motor up. If you're on the trail, the factory bottle jack can be used (I think I may have used it in the garage once, too). I feel like I've used my long travel floor jack and a 2x2 or 2x4 to push up at...

    Rough idle / stalling (was - Bad spark plug wires?)

    Poor quality would be my guess. If it's leaking only from the boot, a dab of dielectric grease may help.

    95 Disco Indicators act like hazards

    Yes they do. I was hoping someone brought this up. @twosevens Have you reset your inertia switch, or considered it as the culprit?

    D1 seat bottoms

    Both. Two or four of the hooks are different between the two. A couple pairs of pliers makes quick work of swapping the hooks.
