    98 D1, lots of mods

    Time to sell my 98 D1, 50th anniversary edition, shit's fancy. Most of you are going to hate my truck, that's cool with me, keeps the thread up near the top. Front suspension, all custom radius arms, cromo heim joints, SAW 2.5" coil-overs, SAW hydro bumps, trussed axle with a full sewer cap...

    How strong are rover wheels?

    As long as you don't hit rocks very hard they'll be fine.

    Rental For Photo Shoot

    Call the Brooks Institute's Ventura campus and ask for Richard (I believe that's his name, he's the MPV contact guy) in career services, he's got a great looking 88" SII with both station-wagon and truck tops. Edit, though it's been a year since I dealt with anybody at Brooks and didn't...

    RTE CYA skid for a D1

    The whole truck is like a lead weight. Compared to the RTE bumpers these are feather-weights.

    RTE CYA skid for a D1

    I'm in Thousand Oaks, just north of LA. Had no clue my PM box was full, cleared it out. Don't believe it will fit a D2.

    RTE CYA skid for a D1

    Bought this from a buddy 6 months ago thinking I'd run it until I got around to building my own, now 6 months lather it's been moved around the garage 75 times and that's about it. Brand new, never attempted to install it. $250, save yourself $50, and if you're local, another $40-50 in shipping...

    Baja 1000 spectators

    Leave the gun at home, it's an instant ticket to Mexican jail, for a very long time, and some hefty fines, but the rape is free, so party on. Pretty straight forward, find a copy of the race map, SCORE's website will have it, and go anywhere you want on the course. If you have to drive on...

    Custom Bumper Weight

    Jesus tap dancing christ! My bumper, with the winch is 100 tops, maybe 105 with the lights. Winches don't weigh 80lbs, even with a full spool of steel cable and a roller fairlead they're not that much I don't remember the box my EP9 came in weighing more than maybe 60-70, a bare EP9 weighs...

    Buy some parts! Best way to get ahold of me is via email, MaxYedor@aol.com 1 pair of Fox 2.0x10" shocks, valved perfectly for the front of a Disco1/2/RRC/Defender, and damn close to what the rear should be at, if you keep a light load in the back, they're golden, these are the same age as the...

    Been meening to hydro-boost my truck, you say this comes with the boost pump, where does that bolt up? Will it bolt up the same on a GEMS D1?

    I Hate Torx Bolts

    Do you have access to a welder? If so weld a hex-nut to the top and hit it with the impact. The heat will break the bolt free, the hex gives to a surface to turn with. For bonus points melt parafin on it right after welding, seeps in and loosens it all up.

    Discovery Limo - Articulation?

    At least you could run dual cases without a stupid-short rear drive-shaft. I would hate to have to install those sliders though.

    Aluminum Chev 350 in DI.... can it be done?

    The OP is in Colorado so motor swap laws may be different enough that the buick 350 wouldn't be too hard. As far as the Turbo 400, yes it does eat power, but that honestly isn't a bad thing in a Rover if you don't plan on an axle swap, I'm not worried about my axles with 33s and a Rover v8...

    Aluminum Chev 350 in DI.... can it be done?

    4.3 v6 is a better motor for the swap. It has plenty of power, can be mated to a turbo 400 just the same, is about 4" shorter so you can stuff in a much thicker radiator to solve the cooling issues you will have with the LS, and because it doesn't have nearly as much power as the LS you won't...

    Safe? Unsafe? common practice? sounds stupid

    I've seen trucks, cars, buggies, etc running on jack-stands so many times it's rediculous. Would I be afraid to do it on flat level ground with good jack-stands, no, will it help track down your sound, not really.
