    Any Interest In Another Greg Davis Rear DII Bumper Group Buy?

    Seems I may need to scrape together my pennies for a new rear bumper sooner than I had planned. A suicidal deer jumped into my driver side, and got something (antler?) caught in the bumper a while back. But, just checked the other day, and the cracks in the stock bumper have grown. So, I'm...

    Any Interest In Another Greg Davis Rear DII Bumper Group Buy?

    Interest? Yes. Funds? Not at this time... :( If this were for spring of '12, I should be ready. I do need to get a new rear bumper, and have heard great things about your bumpers. So, I will see if I can squeeze some more change out of various couch cushions, just in case. But, unless...

    T-Shirts

    Oh really? Great! I would like a black t-shirt in extra large (XL): Front: DII Diff Lock Back: DiscoWeb.org logo boot print Paypal sent. Just sold my DI a while back, which has saved me the cost of a t-shirt. Or, more likely, allowed me to buy an additional t-shirt with another design on...

    DII OME used shocks

    Sweet. PM me a phone number and I can call next time I've got a trip to Portland. Also, let me know if weekends or weekdays work best for you. I'm usually coming up on weekdays, but a weekend trip can also be arranged without too much difficulty. Either way I'll bring cash and a smile. :D...

    DII OME used shocks

    If still available I'll happily take those, and you may not even need to ship. I go up to Portland every few weeks or so. Let me know. Ranger Ivan

    Using Full Size Spare

    Maybe that's why in Spanish, "Jeep" is pronounced "Heap." ;)

    Crappy gas mileage?!

    My old Disco got about 13 or so, maybe 15 on the highway. I'm selling it into slavery, or maybe having it dismembered for general evil behaviors... (i.e., I'm selling it or parting it out because it's a lemon ;) ) I have a '02 Disco II that I just got, and am loving it! This past weekend...

    New Disco II owner...any suggestions?

    Well, the type of upgrades depends on what you plan to do with it. Being interested in off-road, here is a list a friend sent me a while back, and I still refer to it at times. IMO, it's a great place to start. Or, to quote a certain pirate, "More what you'd call guidelines, than actual...

    Rover Smoking

    Another possibility that I'm still dealing with... I have a 95 Disco, and it was dumping some white smoke out the tail pipe. At first it appeared to be the headers, but was found to be a loose cylinder sleeve letting coolant into the motor. They should be putting in the replacement motor...

    Roof Rack Flooring

    A friend of mine just got a roof rack (it *might* be a Safety Devices rack), and is using marine grade plywood as a floor. Not sure if he's treated it in any way. He's got a backpacking tent that fits up there, so he's got the "home version" roof tent. He hasn't had it very long, and not out...

    Will a 91 RRC fuel pump fit a Disco 1?

    I've been replacing the motor in my '95 Disco recently. Well, I've been paying some mechanics to do it for me... ;) As far as I can tell, if they are both the 3.9L motors, the parts should swap. The concern is with the onboard computers, many of which won't work properly if you do swap the...

    Dream Car

    So many possibilities, but I guess I'll say the LAV-25. Not only does it have excellent off-road performance, it has options for dealing with city traffic also. ;)

    Sunroof Screens

    Thanks for the help. I've got yetanother '95 Disco with 50% busted clips. It must be a conspiracy... ;) So, now I need to come up with a couple of paper clips. After talking to some folks, I realized that it would be tough to replace the entire screen, so this is a much nicer fix. Even if...

    3.9 - 4.0 Conversion

    First of all, I'm new here. I'm also rather new to the wonderful world of Rovers. So, it's supposed to be a love/hate relationship, right? ;) On to business... The 3.9 motor in my '95 Disco died a few months back. Considering some of my budgetary contraints, I was having problems tracking...
