Is there still an aftermarket amplifier wired in as well? Maybe under a seat or something? If not, then he likely had the amp mounted with the sub, and removed both. I very much doubt the horn has anything to do with the stereo. More likely, you have a small short somewhere which is causing a...

Rover had a bit of an upset stomach yesterday...

Good to know. Maybe I'll put comprehensive on it for a month or two and then get the heated for only the deductible? :victory:

Thanks, I'm loving it so far! I'm gonna do some interior work today, I'll run the defrost button and see if the windshield warms up as well. I don't necessarily want the SLS key fob, just wondered if it was a trick with the regular one, or indeed a separate one. Is there a way to lower it with...

2002 - 2004 are Disco IIs. 2005 are LR3's, completely different beasts. There are a few common problems/weaknesses in the DII. Check out this article. 2003 was the first year of the 4.6, (stroked out 4.0). Had some serious oilpump issues, and some were likely not properly repaired. 2003 was...

While I can't speak to tire size/lift combinations on the Disco, I wholeheartedly agree on Duratracs. They are, by far, the best "in-between" tire I have ever used. I have had them on a full-size pickup, a mid-size pickup, and now on the Disco II. Quiet and stable on the road. Great on packed...

Lo and behold, I DO have the heated windshield.... which begs the question... why no switch? Obviously someone switched out the switch [heh. heh.] at some point. That makes the replacement windshield decision much more difficult. Definitely need one... worth the extra $600 for heated? Probably...

The youtube video here talks about it. Maybe never made it to production? My keyfop only has lock/unlock. I thought maybe there was some combination or holding one or something that you had to do. I suppose I could just read a freakin' manual... :ylsmoke: I was wondering how it worked. I...

Hmm.... it seems I don't have a button above the defrost. Maybe I don't actually have the heated windshield? (previous owner said it did). Interesting... Either way, as nice as that may be, I don't think I can justify to myself a $700+ windshield on a <$3000 vehicle. I am working on checking...

I already am! The interior is a bit rough, but I just found a totalled one in the same color, and I may go pull seats, carpet, switches... all kinds of things. Would make a big difference, and not be terribly expensive, really. I need to replace the windshield, and I see this one is heated. I...

New to me Disco II! I have loved Land Rovers, in particular Discoveries since I was but a wee lad. Recently been looking for a cheap runabout/exploring/SAR rig, and think I've found one. 1999 Disco II SE7 I believe it has every option you could get.. 2 moonroofs, air suspension, ACE...

Haha, going on 2 years, and this thread is still going! STILL considering a samurai (every time I get the cash built up, something else comes up...) There's one locally right now in decent shape for only $2000... tempttinnngggg...... I'm sick of driving my big expensive diesel every day!

I have a history in driving top-heavy wildland fire trucks (about 6k pounds high in the bed with a full tank) - sometimes in pretty nasty conditions. That being said, I am way more nervous with my truck and camper than I ever was with the fire trucks. Part of that may be the dually firetruck vs...

Trip Reports: Have now been on three camper outings, the most recent our first boondock/dry camp, tuesday night. Harris Park, NE Oregon, with some friends (jealous of his Bigfoot!) [if you look close, you can see how close the camper got to the roof of the cab when I leveled with jacks only...

:Wow1:

FYI we use this isolator in our wildland trucks and the Sheriff's patrol cars, and it works great. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001HC6UJ0/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A3J1PF183V710G I have yet to install one on my truck (same purpose as you, charge the camper while driving, then not...

oooooooo purdy! Really like the bumper design, and the back looks to be on par. Gonna put some lights in it also? Let me know when you're gonna come over and build mine ;)

Tonight I will be installing my set of Torklift tiedowns that I purchased used from a gentleman in NC. (craigslist is awesome!!) Looking into tie-downs... First dry-camping (boondocking) trip this weekend!

I don't think I could live with a reg cab either, although maybe you'd get used to it.

Nice, always liked those old 2-door Tahoes. Is the solar just wired to the vehicle battery, or a second battery? I think I'd be tempted to get a little airfoil or something in front of that guy. Solar panels are too fragile to have them nekkid on the front like that, IMO. Is that an interior...
