Hi, I'm mouning an extendable awning and I'm wondering what others have done. Do you think it better mounted on the driver side or the passenger side? I currently have it fitted to the driver side because the rear door on the DII opens out to the passenger side. If I mount it on the passenger...

Hi all, Looking for some insight: Last fall my 2001 DII developed a subtle leak from one of the coolant hoses. This was addressed by installing all new coolant hoses and a new T-stat. Regardless, there was always a bit of a drip, or seep, from one of the hoses and then another. Never a...

HI all, I am hearing a bit of a squeek when I turn the steering wheel, especially to the left. It is direclty related to the movement of the steering wheel, it is not continuous. I only hear it when stopped or moving at idle like when pulling out of the driveway. It sounds like a squeeky...

Something has died in my Engel 45 refrigerator!! I'm serious, this is the absolute worst smell you can imagine. I took my daughter to a trout pond and she caught a fish! So we put it in a ziplock, threw it in the fridge and went home. :chowtime: Took the fish out and turned off the fridge...

I'm searching for durable containers to hold fluids. On long road trips and anytime I plan to go off the pavement I carry a square 5-gallon kitty litter bucket with a locking lid in the back of my vehicle full of spare fluids. This includes: engine oil, brake fluid, differential fluid...

Well I finally did it, I bought the seat of all child seats. Full-on off-road adventure, overland expedition grade! I've had my eye on it for a long time and after spending an exhausting last Saturday trying to choose an off-the shelf seat I decided the extra couple bucks is worth the absolute...

Hey everyone! So while my 2001 DII is at the dealership for some extended warranty work on a window regulator, I asked them to check out a small coolant leak. They say the leak is from some of the hoses, where they connect, and that hoses are unfortunately not covered under ext warranty. So in...

Chance of a lifetime! :Mechanic: Who in the Phoenix area would like to help change out the break pads on a Land Rover DII. Only prerequisite is that you have changed out the pad on a DII before or at lease several other vehicles! I'll do all the work, you can just stand there and double...
