    Settle a debate please

    I have an acquaintance in the UK that is claiming that the UK Discoveries were built differently than the ones that were shipped to the US (DI through DIII/LR3). Besides the obvious steering wheel locations, engine availability (diesel) and other cosmetic differences, were there any significant...

    Best place to park a DII underground

    I think we could agree that this is pretty damn cool. I might be too impatient to actually wait for the elevator to work, but if I had enough money to actually build something like this, I don't think time would be an issue. GizModo link...

    Engine rebuilder / upgrader needed (VA)

    I don't know much of anything about rebuilding motors... But I have a project that needs to be done, I don't have the time, but I'd love to do a new cam (inspired by the cam thread) and whatever else needs to be done while it's out of the truck and opened up (timing chain, rings, seals, heads...

    What does a timing chain sound like when it breaks?

    So I was dropping a package @ UPS, and the truck died while idling. No fuss, just idling, felt a 'miss' and it died. Tried to start, and the starter wouldn't even turn it over. Towed it home on a flatbed, and tried to start it one more time, and it turns, but sounds VERY BAD inside... like a...

    How do I get the gas out?

    I want to take my RTE CYA gas tank skid off my old truck and onto my new truck... But, the old (totaled) truck had a full tank of gas when it was wrecked, and I'd like to get it out before dropping the tank skid. Besides fishing a tube down the hole and siphoning it out, is there any other...

    Rover Engine Rebuilder in NOVA?

    I'm toying with the idea of rebuilding / resealing one of my 4.6's with some upgrades to the internals. I'd love to try it myself, but I'm scared of what I don't know. So, I'm either looking for someone that knows Rovers and can help me build it up, or that I can pay to do it within 100 miles...

    Powder coat my 16's or get steelies?

    I'm swapping over to 16's and want the rims to be satin black. I powder coated my 18's and it worked and looked great. However, my very inexpensive powder coater isn't working out this time, so I'm looking at options... Should I buy some steelies with the correct offset, or find another...

    How does USAA handle a totaled / mod'ed truck?

    I don't know how many of these threads I've seen... but now it's mine. Fiance just rear-ended a Ford Escape at about 45mph. Escape came off worse for wear, and the Rovertym bumper did an excellent job protecting the rest of the Disco... but it's probably totaled. Frame ear was bent where the...

    Puddle lights / Rock lights?

    Ok, so this is likely going to get some flames for being poseur, but is it really that bad of an idea? Being out in the sticks, I park my DII in the middle of the dark at the edge of a field. You can turn on the DII's headlights by holding down the Lock button on the FOB, but that isn't 100%...
