Change ALLthe fluids and filters. This includes the diffs. New brake fluid. Flush cooling system. Grease all lube points.

I still have more miles on the oil change. Once that's due again ill change the other fluids as well. I'll Probably do the winch mount bumper and HD rear bumper and the sliders and the other goodies

 

[1991LRrrc]

well so the range rover has new headlights and 245/75R16 A/Ts it looks alot better then 225/75r16s

So last thursday my heater blower motor shit the bucket. here in a month or so I'll be having new but used abs pump blower motor window switchs for the rear and front and rear stock bumpers

PT Schram has a replacement blower motor that fits right in. Have fun replacing it, and change the heater core while you're in there.

the frt mudflap mounts to the thin floor pan and are a source of rust. suggest looking at yours for if you haven't done so already and then decide if you want frt flaps. mine are off and holes closed.

Brownchurch roof racks look and work great on Classics.

Lamp guards on the rear are a waste. if a tree branch snags them, they will rip off resulting in some nice large holes.

the std air cleaner really is a good design especially for dusty conditions.

sounds like it will be a nice RRC when finished.

And for sure replace the heating core!!

thanks for the info guys. and does any one have any pics of a rrc with 2 inch lift and LT235/85/16? How do they fit? does it need anything trimmed on the front fenders?

 

[1991LRrrc]

and for now I'm just getting a used blower motor till i can save up enough for a complete rebuild on some of the stuff that well or needs it.

The tires may rub a little if you still have the front spoiler on. If you only have the bumper then it wont be a problem as well as with an after market bumper.

[1991LRrrc]

ok thanks. ya i dont have the spoiler

 

[1991LRrrc]

ok so I'm going to be test fitting lt265/75r16 and got some stuff order for the range rover

 

[Blueboy]

that is the size my Rangie has.

it also has a 2" lift for it to work.

 

[1991LRrrc]

that is the size my Rangie has.

it also has a 2" lift for it to work.

what is your height with the 2" lift

 

[Blueboy]

I don't have handy the stock height of a coil sprung Rangie unfortunately.

However, the stock tire is 29" tall while the 265/75-16 is about 32".

You need at least an additional 1.5" just to get it to fit.

 

[1991LRrrc]

i have done a the conversion on it and its about a 31 inch tire give or take. and i have got some parts in for the range rover tail light guards rear ashtray and rear window switches now i just have to figure how to put the guards on

updated pics with speakers and radio and other odds and ends

 

[az_max]

The right side of your radio is a perfect place for a USB charging plug:

 

[1991LRrrc]

for something like that i got to replace the radio plastic piece first
