A few years back I scanned and saved the instructions for installing the LR/OEM Brush Bar for a 1999-2002 Discovery II. I have been providing these on request for anyone who needed them. I have moved email accounts and some recent requests have been lost. If you need the instructions please...

Tech Bulletin Regarding Rear Seat I cannot find the original post, but here is the information you will need if you want to proceed with the fix I mentioned in earlier post. Land Rover Technical Bulletin No. 76/19/99/NAS "Play in Second Row Seat Back Hinge" issued 7/09/99 Part No. HTP100080...

I had the same problem on my 2002. There was a posting about 18 > 24 months ago here on Disco Web regarding this issue and a person replied with a fix using parts supplied via Land Rover. I will see if I can find the original post and if not I may still have the original part numbers somewhere...

This may be a little weird but ... I recently replaced the brake pads on all four wheels. All was well except there was this metalic rattle/banging noise (sounds like someone banging a wrench against the axle) under the left rear when I went over rough roads, small pot holes, etc. I checked...

Charles, I am getting a <c-lsaenz@juno.com> (reason: 554 c-lsaenz@juno.com Mail quota exceeded) message back when I have tried to send emails with the instructions attached (as of 6:00 PM pst). Send me an email when you can receive the PDF file (8,907 kb), broken up into multiple...

I have instructions for installing a genuine LR brush bar. However, the instructions are for a bar fitting a 2002, I do not know if there are differences with the 2003-04 models. I can email the instructions (in PDF format) if you want to check them out. Let me know by sending an email to me...

Just to add to the prior reply. Pull the fan motor (easy to do) and check for mice. I had a family of mice move in to the entire ventilation system. The first symtom was the vibrating fan motor (clogged with nest material), quickly followed by a REALLY foul smell. I had to have the entire...

To all those who have replied so far, thank you. I think I will try a couple more experiments based on the suggestions. I will check out a simple/quick air dam over the very front-middle of the rack (where the source of the noise seems to be). I will also try the same approach over the open...

Mike, the SD rack was installed the first week I owned the Disco so I do not have a point of reference regarding the racks impact on mileage. Currently (with only the rear floor section in place, no rack lights) I get 12-13 mpg around town and 14-15 on the freeway. My guess is that the rack...

I have a Safety Devices ?Highlander high? rack on my 2002 Discovery. I have a floor for it made out of MDO plywood with a coating of fiberglass resin. I first made and installed a section for the rear ?upper? area of the rack. I then made a second section for the front ?lower? area (the...

Ken, I have 245/75 16 BFG MT's on my 2002 Disco II with stock 8"x16" wheels and have not had any problems. I was concerned about this size tire on an 8" rim and checked with Paul Barsanti at Land Rover Redwood City (Calif) who participated in the Trek competitions. He said the Trek Discos...

I have attached a pair of Thule bars with ski and snow board carriers to the Safety Devices rack. I 'recycled' a pair of Thule bars with general purpose mounts from a earlier Suburban setup. The general purpose (not model specific) mounts 'wrap' around the SD tubes and are very secure. I...

Will, Nice to find a local Rover person (Aptos is a bit small !). No, I don't belong to the Nor Cal group. I have thought about joining but just haven't make the leap. Send me an email at rkurk@cruzio.com when you get a minute and let me know about your Rover. I can also provide more...

I have BF Goodrich MT's 245/75 - 16's mounted on factory 16x8 wheels (on a 2002 Discovery II) and have had no problems to date on road or off road. For what's it worth, Rover sets up their Rover Trek competition Discovery's with 245/75 - 16's on 16x8's and I can assume that they would have...

I have a Safety Devices rack and have used a homemade floor successfully, although there is some work to make it. I purchased 3/8" MDO plywood which has a very smooth surface (both sides) of a hard "paper" (more like formica) material. It is easy to cut and work with basic hand and power...

Kyle, If you are looking for customers for the Hi Lift mounts you can add me to the list. Let me know if you start making them again. Thanks, Rich Kurk

Thanks for the Information Thanks everyone for the good input. I have decided to get the Rovers North front diff. guard and additionally the Southdown rear diff guard (steel version).

I am considering buying protection for the front differential on my 2002 Disco (no ACE) and am interested if anyone has experience with the Southdown front axle guard, which covers the diff. and axle versus the Rovers North diff guard (covering the diff. only) ? From photos it appears that the...
