    Roll over Rover

    Saw this RRC on "Destroyed in Seconds" the other night....found somebody had already posted on youtube. The video quality in the link isn't great and not my choice of music. On the show they noted that the truck drove off under its own power! :applause...

    Hunter owners - can you chime in on brake pads?

    I'm thoroughly confused on which brake pads to buy for the front of a 1992 RRC - base model, no ABS. :banghead: British Pacific says to use the pads for an 87-89 non-abs truck and even mention on their website that the hunter/non-county 92's use the 87-89 calipers, Rovers north says to use...

    Swivel seals, what flavor???

    D2 powertrain into RRC?

    So I have a '92 SWB RRC with 133k on it. Engine is a little tired, has developed a subtle knock (could be a lifter..don't know) and still pressurizes the cooling system after two headgaskets repairs by the PO. So, I'm thinking a new motor at some point, possibly very soon, possibly not - I...
