Hi,
I just picked up a 91 Classic RR County picture attached, it has 84K original miles and was maintained at the dealership since new until 60K miles. I have owned Discos in the past so not familiar at all with the classics and have a few basic questions:
1) The Rover is lifted 3 inches with 35 inch tires from a Defender, but is missing the 2 rear shocks, it just has the springs. What will be the correct brand and model shocks that need to be added to make the vehicle me stable? I would also appreciate a link if possible to a sponsor vendor or online vendor that would sell this.
2) The brake master cylinder is leaking and I have the ABS light on in the dash. Will Rovers North be the best site to source the replacement parts?
3) The Drivers door does not open from the outside and the real tall gate is also quite finicky. Again, would Rovers North be my best bet for the replacement parts or for this model I will have hunt on eBay with the hope of getting lucky?
4) Is there a vendor that sells the leather or vinyl seat covers for this model? I think the fronts are beyond repair at this point.
5) Also, I am looking for a replacement carpet kit to get the interior sorted so would appreciate a link t a vendor that sells this.
I will drop of the vehicle for my mechanic to go through in detail and change all fluids, replace the spark plugs, also have an AC leak that needs to be sorted.
6) What other common items should I have the mechanic focus on?
Appreciate any guidance and information on my questions.
