    Guessing by the photo that it's a high rack that clears the sunroofs?

    Any competent driveshaft shop can do the work.

    Beating an overheated horse

    I too put one of these on this year. They are impressive. I didn't switch because I was having cooling issues, but because the original one was making a little noise had some resistance when spun by hand.

    94 D1 Transmission (manual)

    My previous comment wasn't detailed enough... from a cost standpoint, it's cheaper to buy from the U.K. and eat the core charge than it is to pay to have it/them rebuilt in the U.S.

    Intermittent Steering wheel shake ONLY at 45 mph

    I have the same on my 94. Moving back to rubber front suspension bushings from the soft "blue" polyurethane reduced it a bunch.

    Anyone running Terrafirma Dakar wheels on their Disco 1?

    33mm is the factory stock wheel offset. So if the width is the same, then it'll be the same as a factory alloy wheel.

    Based on the OP's mention of a kickdown cable, it's an automatic.

    persistent CEL and code 17 after TPS replacement/upgrade

    Based on the code provided, we're working on an OBD 1 vehicle. Looking forward to responses, as this is not my strong area. I haven't heard of this alternative TPS, so hoping to learn.

    94 D1 Transmission (manual)

    Not sure if it still holds true, but it was cheaper to get a rebuild from the UK than to have it rebuilt in the states.

    My Lift Kit Review

    The blue Polybush bushings are softer than rubber. I get more flex with them compare to rubber and they held up very well... longer than replacement rubber has (the reason why I switched). But, they're soft enough that the front was more prone to a touch of wobble from the dynamically balanced...

    Just checked the extra bolts I have. They're 10mm x 1.5

    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.

    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.
