Hey... As the title says brand new alternator is not charging at idle. I get a reading around 11.5v at idle and will climb to 14.4v by 1500rpm. Before I pull it and bring it to be bench tested, is there anything else to check? Would a grounding issue cause this? Belt is tight. Alternator is the...

Anyone using WVO in Southern Maine? I have 10+ gallons of used oil if anyone wants to pick it up.... free.

Stopped at my local beer store and there was '98 disco with front and rear custom bumpers that I have not seen. He had them made locally here in Maine and I thought they looked really nice. He got a smoking deal from the fabricator too. Front....

Hey... I'm trying to help a friend troubleshoot his driver's side window not working. The other 3 work fine. I've asked him to swap the switches to rule out a bad switch. If I'm reading the ETM correctly, there is not a fuse specific to just the driver's window. He sent me a pic of his fuse...

Yup yet another issue this week. While changing out the suspension, noticed a leak from a rear hub. Hub had a lot of play plus the breather was plugged solid. I'm going to tight the hub nuts but I don't have a new drive flange gasket. Can I use a smear of right stuff? Shop that did my...

It's been a week of install issues. The latest is the new OME steering damper. It hits against the drag link causing it to not line up in the factory mounts. It does not seem like a good thing to be pressed against the link or is it fine? Also, it does not expand on it's own. The old...

While working on installing my new exhaust, I've discovered where my coolant leak is. The last bolt on the right side of the intake manifold is leaking into the valley & down the back of the motor. I managed to get a socket on it and it's tight. I redid the top end last summer. What would...

I'm having issues with my NRP install. It's on a RRC w/ 3.5 but I think the Ypipe is the same for most V8s & models. I'm actually replacing a 15 yr old NRP system which fit fine on both RRC. Currently I can not get the Y pipe to line up. Got it in place & the left side landed perfect on the...

After searching I've found there are very mixed reviews on spring spacers. I'm installing new OME shocks & stock LR springs this weekend and I had planned on using 2'' spacers from RN just for snow clearance. I don't wheel and I like the feel of the stock springs and I don't think anyone...

I'm at the end of scrapping my 1988 RRC and before I send her off to the scrap yard I wanted to see if anyone would like the 3.5 efi, ZF and LT230. There's a catch... they are still in the rusted out rover and I don't have the means or desire to pull it all... so bring a trailer with a winch...

My friend cracked his windshield on his 95 classic. AB shows them in stock and the price is what I expected. He's on vacation in Wellfleet Mass so I did a quick check with Safelite. Their site is saying $308 installed!!! Sounds to good to be true. Anyone have experience with Safelite and a...

Anyone have a good source for vinyl fabric to recover the rear upper quarter panel??? When removing the panel, if it has sat for a long period of time, be careful..... They were not happy at all!!!

Here are two candidates from just this week.... http://bigstory.ap.org/article/069f1f18e4b34b0c910c171c68717309/police-man-shoots-firework-top-his-head-dies CALAIS, Maine (AP) — A 22-year-old man who was drinking and celebrating the Fourth of July tried to launch a firework off the top of his...

Got rear ended this afternoon. Cars stopped short in front of me & then I look in the rearview to see the CRV trying to stop in time…. CRUNCH… then my head pushed the headrest all the way back. I'm fine. Check the driver of the CRV & she is fine. Then I check the Rover….. not a scratch. CRV...

Saw this today on Craigslist…. http://maine.craigslist.org/cto/4770704281.html

As the title says, I need help identifying a set of four brake calipers. I ordered these a LONG time ago (not quite a year but greatly past standard return time) from Rockauto. Checked the part numbers on the boxes but did not open them, and now finally went to have them installed. Shop who...

Any members in Kauai? I'm on a photo shoot here & we are looking for a Rover as a prop vehicle. The art director wants a range rover or disco in the 2000+/- year range…. but could be convinced on something older. Shooting all next week & part of the following. Post here or shoot me a pm or...
