Pretty funny, where was this posted?

How did the one with the orange beak look like in person? Any more pics? I am curious how that color stuff played out. From this picture, looks a little silly.

Are those aftermarket or did you get the OEM ones from Ineos?

"White" cars that really aren't white always look so cool in the snow.

Yep. Keep in mind that Toyota has been building 4 cyclinder hybrids for years that go 8-10 years and 150k without a battery change. Plenty of examples of them going longer.

Might be old news for folks,but I just saw this today. I priced out the 1958 as a "stripper" model, only adding rock sliders from the base price. The only thing I would care about that is not on this model and on the next model up is the sway bar disconnect. 56k base price and $1000 for...

33 x 10.5's and a 3" lift is not a Jeep with 40's that gets trailered everywhere and can't drive in a straight line. In fact, I think it drove better with the upgrades I had - RTE springs, castor corrected radius arms, trailing links, a-arm extension and GASP! SHOCK! Rancho adjustable shocks...

Yeah...I found that one. I was the "east" part of the challenge. I looked and looked but could not find the big debate thread I was in. I think it is in the private section now that I don't have access to. I think I did at one point,

I just saw that you have a Disco 2...nevermind!

I did a 3" lift on my first disco and wrote up articles on that are still out there on the old Discoweb tech section. For reference: If you want to keep your sway bars: Sway Bar Disconnects: https://discoweb.org/oldsite/disconnects/index.htm In the suspenion install below, it also shows...

Oh my gosh. I remember those days. Ho and John had a "presciption" for how every Rover should look and what mods were classy and what were not. When you veered from that, you were blasted. I got blasted for a handufl of my choices on my Rover, but it was fun to debate all day. I filled in...

i didn'r tealize it was reflection at first and thought the row across the bottom lit up if the car was upside down. That thing on the left looks like something out of Space Invaders.

Harsh I think the 32's are good out of the box...any smaller and meh. Come on...remember back in the 90's when 32's were a HUGE improvement to our discos? It was all about fitting 265/75/16 or some pizza cutter 32's on 15" steelies. I was almost a downright outcast for my 3" lift and 33"...

I wonder if a local tire shop would trade in those tires with money your way since they are so new for a larger set. I personally would not have the patience if that was my plan, so good on you for waiting. For the amount of miles I do annually nowadays, they would probably age out before...

Did you paint the originals or buy new ones?
