Tire cover is a work in progress! Hood blackout is vinyl, it's held up well and got it done cheap in Abu Dhabi. R- R Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought about it but honestly don't like the aesthetics and have found with the HIDs + LED fogs I have plenty of light. R- Ray Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Playing with maxtrax mounting configurations on the prospeed. Fitting into the basket area above the front sunroof is not feasible-but I have a plan for that space. Looks like I'll end up going with each pair mounted fore/aft which lends to a lower profile and less wind resistance, also...

Rotopax on the rear swing away and other small associated mods So moving from big picture comparisons to small incremental changes, the nice fall weather and some unexpected free time gave a moment to do some planned small mods to the rear tire carrier. Specifically, I'd figured on mounting a...

Interesting info on the backorder. I wonder how much AB keeps in stock and if that is indicative of more folks doing this, or low on hand inventory. r- R

Don- Appreciate the comments. As far as ground clearance, I can go back and measure the two subjects side by side-but as they sit right now they are nearly identical, perhaps with a slight nudge to the EAS truck in offroad height when laden compared to mine who went out on the playground the...

They are def not cheap for seat covers nor the tire cover-that said great reputation (caveat I am friends with the previous owner of what was then Kexby). In the end I decided to just get a temp tire cover since in truth I'd probably throw a trasharoo on the back for storage. Now I'm waiting...

Impressive work, looks damn good! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

14 CUX rule: if it is working, don't touch it! Worth keeping the cap/rotor in the truck for when/if it does happen, but once dialed in I'd leave it be until you have a problem.

Adding in some thoughts for respectful counterpoints or alternatives, Kgh's views are borne from experience and thus stand alone in their own right but there are some things worth commenting on! Some would say the 1999 D1 (i.e. some think 1999 was only the Dii, this is not correct-the last of...

The ebay unit is $239; if it performs as Todd has noted and the belt size gets sorted it is a very good option.

Just keep this in mind, from his blog: Land Rover reduced the frame thickness in the Discovery II trucks, and they are now prone to early rust failure in snow belt areas. They are also prone to develop cracks by the right side catalyst. The cure for this is a new frame, at $5,000 and 100+ hours...

Good stuff, you'll see over on my thread where we did a side by side to look at EAS vs coil. BTW, if you are still thinking about 17's, I know some folks who are looking at BMW 17" wheels on the platform. Ping me if interested (or just cold call Sarek (http://www.sarekautowerke.com/) and tell...

He was a fixture there and provided a lot of good info. For those that get the chance, def every little bit helps a fellow Rover owner's family move forward.

Watching with interest along with the other Samurai threads...for some reason I'm keen on grabbing one as a trail rig for my time in the WV mtns.

Love the spare tire cover, and the rest of the bumper. Truck looks sharp. I've been considering getting a Kightsbridge tire cover for my rear tire to add some storage onto the truck for straps and such externally, regardless seeing the cover on yours makes me think I may go that way even if...

Longer term coil conversion observations; field tests side by side with an EAS truck Apologies in advance for the length of this, figured more is good. Purpose: admittedly much of this is in response to quixotic adventure of arguing on facebook, so take that for what it is. What I mean is...

So the wife rejected the Marine Corps Planning Process for our wedding-but ultimately I just renamed the steps and we used it anyway since she was in her 1st year of her PhD program and could barely think anyway. Now she hardly fights it, and we have about 4 white boards filled with stuff to...
