It's been a long while since I posted here (sold my DII back in 2009), but i'm prepping to move back to CA from NYC in the fall and will be buying a truck to make the move with me. Common sense says to buy something more modern and practical but i've wanted a RRC for years (specifically a '95...
So I'm selling my Disco and have had no luck so far so i'm selling my SD rack off of it.....Before I do that, I want to take my 4 hellas off of it and de-wire it. I had them professionally installed so i'm not sure how to un-install them. They cut a small hole in the roof to thread the wires...
My 02 Disco is up for sale but its taking a little longer than expected so I'm looking to sell my Safety Devices rack off of it. The rack is a genuine (still has SD sticker on it and receipt) Safety Devices Safari rack (high) which allows the sun roofs to open up. The rack is in excellent...
Edited to add price and the fact that the SD rack has been sold.......
After 7 years of great times with the Disco, I must part ways. I now live in San Francisco and don't use it as much - plus I can't afford to keep it running the way it should be so it's up for sale.
I am the original...
So I know that Discos are no real towing vehicle but i'm moving to California and need to haul a 6'x12' Uhaul trailer with some of my stuff out there. I have done a bunch of searches on here but i've got some specific questions....
I have two options.....1) Tow it with my girlfriends 02 Toyota...
So I have a screeching metal on metal sound coming from one of my rear brakes and when I inspect the rotors I can see some wear on the rotors.
I brought it in to a local shop and they quoted me $502 for a set of rear rotors and pads with labor and taxes. I'm flat broke so either I let my...
Heading to Moab for a bike trip and only for 2 days but i'm the one driving so we want to do some very moderate off roading. The focus will be biking but in between bike laps I want to hit a few classic 4x4 trails. My D2 is stock other than bull bar and 2" RTE lift and 32" BFG ATs so I don't...
My heat has never come on right when i start her up but lately it has gotten absurd. The past few trips, i have been driving in it for a solid 30 min before heat comes out. I have tried starting the fan off on a low setting and also at full blast but it seems like no matter what i do it blows...
I figure its a town that is bound to have a few modded Rovers......i saw a modded red DII the other day as well as a few Defenders......
Anyway, i am right in town by the Sky Hotel if any of you guys live here give me a shout - i am excited to explore the area when the snow melts (although...
So after 2 months in Colorado, i have already been to the shop 3 times.......
First the check engine light went on and a 4th Cylinder misfire came up. Jeff at JC Rover in Denver checked it out and found nothing wrong with it so the code was cleared an i was on my way....
Then a week later the...
After a solid 24 years on the east coast, i made it out west
I have been living out here in Colorado for a few weeks now and was itching to try out my new tire/suspension set-up (Rovertym 2" w/ OME shocks and 265/75/R16 BFG AT KOs).....this weekend i drove down to Crested Butte to visit a...
So the time has finally come for me to leave my beloved east coast behind after a great 23 years. I am a big skier and biker so the lure of the west has long been with me.
I have gotten everything in place over the past few months - broke up with my girlfriend, tied up all loose business ends...
I just thought i would post a great experience i had with an Indie shop in St. James, NY. The name was given to me through this board a couple years ago but i never went until i needed help with my lift and decided to drive over there last week. Well i should have been going there since day 1...
Well, my baby finally hit her growth spurt - a solid 2+ inches of RoverTym Love......
If i could do it all over again - i would have put the lift on the day i drove my 02 DII off the lot with 0 miles.....i must say as others have in the past that it drives great with this lift and tire comb o...
Putting on my lift and getting rid of the airbags.....
I know there are some people who still run the airbags and since they are not too reliable people like to keep backups. Well since i was just gonna toss these, if anyone wants them as a backup or if someone wants to keep their SLS without...
I am ordering my RTE 2" with OME HD shocks on Monday but i've got a couple questions on installation.
I know there are some very generous folks in Colorado (where i'm moving) like LSUDenver who would help me put on the lift but i need to get it on the truck here in New York. I am not...
So i've been dealing with one squeaky wheel (front driver side) for a few months and when my rover (2002 DII) was in the shop today i asked the mechanic to look at the wheels. I have recently replaced the brakes and the rotors so i knew they were fine, but damn the high pitched squeak has been...
Title says it all - it has been my spare, under my tire cover, never seen pavement. They are stock size for a D2 and Tire Rack has them listed at $215 a tire so how does $70 sound? I am located in Eastern LI but could deliver in LI or NYC. Might be willing to ship. Thanks.
I am upgrading tires and lift so my stock tires have to go - they are still in great condition. My mechanic just looked at them today and said they are in excellent condition at around 85% tread on all 4 tires. They are the stock size and a great winter tire. I don't have pics right now but i...
So i've read a ton of posts about OME vs. RTE and OME vs. Bilsteins etc.... as well as a ton about tire type and size so i'm pretty sure i know what i want. Just thought i would make sure before pulling the trigger.......
First off - i've got a 2002 D2 with SD roof rack, factory brushbar (with...
