Yeah, that's why I'm not hot on TF.

Wow. Those are shitter pipe snorkel white trash specialties.

I've decided to keep the '97 D1 I picked up five years ago to flip. Is OME still the gold standard? Terra Firma has too many iffy reviews. But is OME worth an extra $400? Looking for the usual 2" lift to fit 235/85R16.

GAP tool, sat phone, a five figures worth of backup.

Sending positive vibes y'all's way.

Oh, absolutely the case here, as well. I'll still likely get one down the road when my LR3's are beyond saving.

The Kia comment gave me a chuckle. The 550's look more truck-like than anything LR produces. Everything in their lineup looks perfect for hair dressers and flight attendants. So, right up Gerry McGovern's alley, I suspect.

I was able to get a D2 mirror from a donor at the local indy shop. I don't recall the price but it wasn't more than $50 or so.

I've installed a D2 mirror on a D1. Was even able to wire it in and keep the compass function.

I bought an OEM reman from Will Tillery. So far, so good. This was after two duds installed by my local indy shop. I finally had Will drop ship the radiator to them and they did the install.

In my experience, Nissens is shit. I've never had one that didn't leak.

Is there a way to keep the registration outside of the Clean Air Force?

I did it myself ages ago (10+ years). I drafted a friend to help with managing the glass. It's a PITA but doable. Note: the next time I paid to have the seals replaced.

His sentence was 11 years back in 2016. https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/anthony-simoneau-manslaughter-sentencing-fumiko-ogawa/69126/

FYI, the genuine seals are handed, but one side is NLA. So, they are all sold as the same. You will notice slight imperfections in the corners. It's been so long I don't recall which side is NLA.
