Last post from me about this: Look, I would have been fighting for Will any other day of the week and probably would have posted a testimonial with the rest of you. The guy has provided great parts and service for years- consistently. Heck, my trucks have Will all over 'em. Which is why I'm...

Classy.

:D

Dan- would you buy a block on a 15 -sec call? Just needed basic info. Because I couldn't get the info I thought "Screw it... I'll just send him the money".

Don't know what to say... someone certainly remembers being hung up on. I know I would have been going up against the gods with this one. Guess its time to "unleash the kraken".

LOL. I knew this would cost me my "membership". I dont know you either, but you would be pissed off too if someone was completely rude to you over the phone and then hangs up on you. I dont care about the money, the part, or even the time to get it. I've just never had such rude service...

Will- You are blatantly lying through your teeth. You never explained anything to me. You took more time on your post then with ALL of our phone calls!!! Twist it? You said $100 for the block. I asked about shipping to my zip. You said "About the same... maybe $125" and we didn't discuss...

WTF? Dude, I have bought parts from you for years, without any problems and with great service. I have even recommended you to many other rover owners who have given you hundreds (if not thousands) in business. But recently I have called in search of a stripped GEMS 4.0 short block. I send...

dibs! PM sent.

:eek: Wow. What exactly did you have done?

Your right. I guess I just wanted to test it for the more "obvious" before I spend more $ and send it to the shop.

LOL... I know what you mean. Like I said: "Drained the coolant: less than 2 gal. came out. " Heck, it could have been just over a gallon. I was alarmed, but not too surprised because of the known head gasket leak going through coolant. Lesson learned I guess!

Re: Thought I found a good deal... now I'm scratching my head w/ a torn out motor (pics!) UDPATE: Ordered new plugs from D&D. Will do a pressure test then go from there.

For sure! I will also be checking the hub bearings and Axles, but I'm focused on that motor right now. HUGE EDIT: I do have a spare 4.0 that I was planning on rebuilding and putting the 4.6 cam, rod bearings, etc from Mark at D&D. The motor seemed to run well before it was pulled...

Re: Thought I found a good deal... now I'm scratching my head w/ a torn out motor (pics!) The cam looks worn. two spots have "burn" marks. I will see about posting some pics!

I havent heard of a "light" rebuild. Whats involved? Sorry, I forgot to mention the heads came back last week. No warpage, no cracks. Had the valve job and resurfacing done. "IF" the block is good, I am considering doing the whole sha-bang with parts from D&D. So I guess the question is...

Where do I start? Found a '99 D1 here locally that "seemed" to be a great deal. Went to check it out and was amazed at the condition of the vehicle. Black SE with practically no scratches, zero oxidation and the interior was near perfect (just some wear on the drivers seat). It has an ARB front...

Which ones, the front or back.... or both?

My seats are shot and would like to replace them with a sweet deal I found on some D2 seats. But... Anyone tried replacing the rear seats on a D1 for D2? Any problems with the front seats? Just don't want to waste the gas or the time. Thanks!

Check your PM.
