Well, I never said I was a good mechanic. Got back in there today and, at first, things were looking pretty good. We finally got everything hooked up, including the filter. Turns out, the OEM hose is fortified and extremely stiff, while my extra 12mm hose is much more pliable. I swapped in...

Just when I thought things were coming together, a few wrenches got thrown into the mix. Yesterday, I tried wrapping up the steering gear only to find out the hex bolt doesn’t fit on the drop arm shaft. At first I thought it was a bad bolt, but after trying a second OEM bolt, I noticed the...

Had a few hours to tackle the steering today and was able to knock out most of it. Thankfully, it was mostly uneventful. It didn't take long to fit the gear with my buddy Martin. 2 hands really helps installing this heavy thing. The U-joint didn't want to slip on easily, but after a bit of...

I ended up ordering a new arm from RoverParts late last night. It was $188 all in, which isn't exactly pricey, but more expensive than I was hoping. As you said, why skimp now, esp. on steering? Hope to get this all back on the Rover this weekend.

The steering gear finally came back and boy it looks good. Really happy with Straight Line Steering. I started prepping the parts for install and noticed my drop / pitman arm splines are beginning to fall apart. Anyone know if this is too much corrosion to use anymore? I'd really prefer not...

Well, the steering gear is taking a lot longer than I anticipated. $410 all said and done. A bit more expensive than a rebuilt import unit, but to me it's worth the assurance it was done right. Plus, it's supporting a small business. I expect to get the gear back early next week, but until then...

This is my 1998 Discovery LE. It's my second Rover, my 6th build, and the first vehicle I bought at auction. I call it Casper. So why the Copart auction? Prices for these vehicles have become crazy and since I knew i'd be restoring the truck either way, I figured i'd be better off buying at the...

Hahaha

Lol welp, glws.

Long gone. The title says SOLD, right?

Absolutely love this drawer system, but I have an engine rebuild coming up in February and I need every dollar I can muster to pay for it. I've had this in my truck for maybe 2 years and it's only been on a handful of small trips. The only thing worth noting is that the yellow vinyl that sits on...

Selling a rebuilt A442F Hydraulic (non-electronic) transmission out of my 1991 Land Cruiser HDJ81. I had the work done locally over a year ago and put a brand new OEM torque converter from Amayama in it ($1,700 inc. shipping). The transmission has roughly 500 miles on it, all freeway driving...

How many miles are on the truck?

You’re selling for too little. This should be a $5000 truck, maybe a little more. I just sold mine, and ya it was quite a bit more fixed up, but I also had the gas gauge problem and it went for $11,000 with 126,000 miles. Take some real nice photos, write a great story, and you’ll be able to...

let’s talk!

Selling my 2008 Land Rover LR3 SE with V8 in Stornoway Gray. PRICE: Looking only for a 1994 - 1998 Discovery 1 in great condition. Its important to me that it has no rust, is up to date with maintenance, and has reasonable mileage (or a rebuilt engine). Trade +/- cash. Note: if I can’t find a...

I know this post is quite old, but if you are still looking for a Howling Moon, i've got one for sale (California). It's not a Deluxe though.

Selling a CVT Mt. Shasta roof top tent. I am not 100% sure this is a Shasta to be honest, but it fits 2 people easily. There is no model information on the tent itself. I've had it for many years and it has been well taken care of. Comes with rain fly and poles for the windows, along with the...
