    2004 DII Knocking in Rear

    man...I tried it all Sunday afternoon. Shocks are tight top and bottom. Normal play in the bushings, but I tried to tighten up everything under the rear end. I inspected the exhaust again, no probs there. I crowbar'd the springs top and bottom, they are seated properly. I took a rubber...

    RTE Rear Bumper Installation

    I have RTE's HD rear bumper on my Disco II and it was installed by Steve and his crew in Midlothian VA back in Dec 2006. A loud squeak or pop has developed on the rear drivers side as the frame or body flexes or i go over a bump or pothole in the street. Could be from a loose bolt. Anyone...

    camping bed advice

    Sure, I don't camp on snow or in zero degree F weather. I didn't think that was our original poster's concern.

    camping bed advice

    The problem with inflatable beds is they are on the ground. Get a Big Cot XL and lay a Thermorest closed cell self-inflating pad on top of it and you not only have a great big cot to sleep on 2 feet off the ground, you'll have a nifty place to sit on to put your boots on, and room to store your...

    GBR Rebuilt DII Drive Shaft Grease Fitting

    I must have a non-standard grease gun then. The long needle-like piece is what doesn't fit. I'll figure it out with shrams help though.

    GBR Rebuilt DII Drive Shaft Grease Fitting

    Got Bill's rebuilt front drive shaft for my 2004 DII and it came with a grease fitting made to work with the low-profile "zerk" fittings on the new u-joints. Anyone know how this piece is supposed to attach to a standard grease gun?

    LR jack

    lol... I've wound up with two LR bottle jacks from some other trucks I've owned and they are terrific jacks. HOWEVER, the brand new jack that came with my 2004 Disco doesn't work at all.

    big thumbs down to genuine ladder install

    Yup, mine is the black with red handles Pittsburgh unit. Paid $14 or something for it. I remember buying SAE stainless screws to work with the included SAE sized rivnuts since the gun's 4 inserts would not fit the metric rivnuts included with the genuine LR part I was installing. I think it...
