    New motor - Runs rough, noisy lifters

    Out here I saw the same thing from the same supplier, it ended up being a collapsed piston skirt causing the knocking noise. The pistons they use are used, and AB's rebuilder must not have measured well enough, caused the shop a ton of grief. In the end I took a brunt of it as I reccomended them.

    What key-fob remote battery to order (from Amazon?) for 2004 DII?

    I've purchased them online ebay, you get what you pay for, the rubber portion is distorting and kind of bubbling on my key fob. I just transferred the internals. For the money it's still way cheaper than oem.

    chasing a tick...

    I hope this fixed your problem. I have recently seen a rebuilt engine with top hat liners and all the goodies still end up with a knock / ticking sound. After much grief and parts replacement by the installing shop it ended up being a bad piston with a slightly collapsed skirt. It sounded...

    Mono tubes deteriorate very slowly, they should be fine if they have no external dents or fluid leakage.

    My d2 is now a farm truck can I remove the cats?

    As long as its legal in your state if you leave the pre 02 sensors in and purchase 02 extenders for the rear sensors it should work. The front sensors need to be there for the truck to run the right air fuel ratio. The rear sensors if out of the flow might not set of a check engine light.

    Side "pitching" sudden increase?

    I put on exact shocks to try and remedy the same problem, on mine it was the pan hard rod bushings, I also replaced the sway bar center mount bushings, front and rear. That made a decent improvement.

    D2 worth nothing

    The price of gas is what I believe keeps the Discovery price so low. As more end up as scrap the value will go up for someone wanting a great solid axle offroader. I bet it's becoming more of a weekend ride for some. They have begun making galvanized chassis for the D2 so there must be some...

    D2 worth nothing

    Some guys on the Expedition Portal forum believe the D2 to be worthless. A guy from Dividing Creek actually called the Discovery more of a toy, lol. He is trying to sell Defenders so I can see his perspective. The thread is in the Landrover Section. While a Discovery has a poor resale value...
