Just because it could do it didn't mean I drove it like it was a BMW.... It's perfectly legal as you see it in NY state.

For me, it was this: Drove my beat up 93 XJ on 33s across the country wheeling everywhere I could following my buddy's more built up truck. I watched every weakness that truck had and eliminated it when building my 98. I was the third owner (was friends with the second) and it was pretty much...

Only petrol V8s from the factory, so the 3.9/4.0/4.6 are all you can get in a disco without swapping something different.

No timing belt in a NAS Disco2, but x2 on maintenance. Check and replace all fluids, go through the thing and make sure it is reliable. Get an ultra gauge and make sure its running at the correct temp.

I'm 6' and I love the seating position. Traffic lights.. yea, that sucks but I usually just stare at my hood and watch the reflection, watch out the side window or just wait for someone behind me to honk if I space out and forget. Its not like you can get anywhere in a hurry with these things...

94-99.

Find a 94/95 D1. OBD1, so no worries for emissions testing in most states (idk how it is by you), and they are dead simple. Few sensors here and there like every other computer controlled EFI on the planet, but it has a standard-issue ignition coil and distributer... no funky computer controlled...

It's way different. In my Jeep I was always like, "oh another 500 here, another 275 there so this is better, that is better add this or that." With the Rover its, "****, I need a radiator hose. I can buy one for $50 and wait 3-4 days for it to ship or go to the dealer and spend $200." I've had...

righto. paypal incoming.

thats a front driveshaft u-joint? if it'll work on a D1, sure. won't hurt to have a spare.

still have it? i'll take it. is that email listed your paypal?

42" Olympus Pro Series combo beam up top, 14" Olympus single row painted with duplicolor metal cast on the brush guard

kinda late to the party but I have had very good luck using Duplicolor Metalcast Yellow paint on lenses to change the color. This way I'm not sacrificing light output by getting a junk yellow bulb. Hella MicroDE that I did: Before/After of a LED bar:

I wonder who made that render... old school MTRs, glowing edges on the light guards, terrible shadows...

slightly OT, but my (current) dream is a L322 on 37s. LSx, 4L80E, D300, 60s, 3 link front, 4 link rear... I did see a '03 roller for $700 the other day.

awesome trip report so far, looking forward to the rest. A coworker and I were talking about old air-cooled VWs yesterday, he wants to pick up a 1600. I wouldn't mind one as well, they are beautiful in their simplicity.

this thing is perfect. awesome looking rig.

i guess it depends on how aggressive you want to get. theres a LR3 HD HSE for sale in FL right now for a good price: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/134062-2006-Land-Rover-LR3-HSE-w-HD-pkg for that price, you are looking at a close-to-200k miles LC100 bc of their resale value. if...

I think a LC100 would be better for your needs and budget IMHO.

this. I had a low miles XJ that was pretty much "done" as far as being built. Fully polished HP44 front, 35 spline D60 rear, two lockers, 5.13s, hydro assist, fully stiffened and caged, bumpers, skids, rockers, on 35s but waiting for 37s blah blah. didn't wheel as much as i used to, planned on...
