Robert, Looks awesome. Porsche and Rover. :drool: Have a safe trip down there. Mike and Myles

I don't know, it looks empty. Must be the new model invisible smoke for Lucas Relays. :D

Its amazing how big that hood gets when you lower the seat. :) Its easy to go to far, w/o realizing it. Looking good... How do the back seats feel? Mike and Myles

It would probably be easier to add an overdrive to your set-up than doing and engine swap. We have an 109 with the 2.5 NA and with an OD I could keep up with DC traffic when I used to live out there. It was very happy at 65. All of that being said a diesel rover is not a speed demon no matter...

1971 Series IIA is Beaker (after the Muppet) 1981 2DR RRC is Myles (The previous owner was a professional wrestler "Miles Long Beaver Hunter" but Miles Long, didn't go over well with the GF) Sometimes the Series or the Rangie. There have been enough that saying the green one or the 109 isn't...

Jon, Glad your back. Sounds like you found a keeper, congrats. I would think about replacing the blower motor when you do the heater core. Get it done while you are in there. I would also run a couple of wires to either a remote fuse block (for future accesories) or wire in a couple of...

Thanks, and sorry Dave. :) That is a sweet grill, I must admit to not being a fan of the standard plastic defender grill as well. They just never seem to fit right.

Andy, that looks sweet. what grill is that on your defender? Cheers, Mike and Myles

Timmy, can you make the pictures public? Thanks, MMM

Hells to the Yea! Thanks for the 2dr love!!!! Looking good Robert. Cheers, Mike and Myles

Nice! I love the Series 1s. What kind of a project is this going to be? Mike and Myles

Wow didn't realize they came with 18s. with a 2" lift i used to run 235/85 16s. A really great size for rovers IMO. tire calculator shows a 255/65 18 to be just under an 1nch shorter. With the 235/85s i only had to adjust my steering stops by a very little bit as well. Cheers, Mike and Myles

congrats on your new ride! I say this to everybody, but especially people coming from jeeps, drive it before you decide you need to mess with the suspension. These are amazingly capable vehicles in stock form. You know your type of off-roading better than we do, so I will trust your...

Well the bonus of the "80 lift" is that you only buy two springs, and swap the rears to the front. Its not a full set of FJ-80 springs. There is a flame war, I mean thread on FJ-80 springs on P38. If you want flexy 3" buy the OME 3" lift. I want a little more stiffness in my shocks, but I...

Justin, Did he call? Is he out? b jeepin, Whats the story morning glory? hope its a good tale, and not the death of a rover or a relationship. Mike and Myles

Nice, looks similar to my pressure bleeding set up for the brakes. :beer:

Robert, That sucks. Best of luck. Will this effect your trip across Russia and the Western US? If not, when do you plan on being in the UT/CO area? Mike and Myles

Nice 10-15 min sounds pretty good to me. It takes us that long to pull all the crap out of the back of the truck, let alone set it up. :) Recently got a Ben Hur trailler that I am starting to plan out. I might have to steal the unistrut idea. ;) along with plenty of other ideas on here...

vikingsigns, Where does the table store when not in use? How do you have it attached to the side of the trailer. Does it come together fairly easily and quickly at camp? That is some sweet looking cooking space. Mike

Its a numbers game. I thought all places had cheap used cars like DC, till I moved to UT. Many Many Many Rovers in the DC metro area, 99% of which have never even seen dirt, let alone driven on it.
