The red A/T -T Case temp light popped up on my 94 DI and so I checked the fluid in the A/T-up to the second hole on the stick and nice clean reddish color then I went to check the T Case. I thought my driveway was level but when I pulled the bolt from the filler hole it came weeping out so fluid...

I got a bottle of Marvel after reading several threads that suggested it. It list that it can be added to gas or oil so I'm wondering which is a better use? I am having some blow by and the injecters could flow better so it is a toss up to me. Maybe I should do 1/2 in th tank and 1/2 in the pan...

I'm picking up the Winchester Model 70 7mm-RSM I posted about before this weekend. It currently has a Bushnell scope that is OK but not great. I'm getting a great deal on the rifle so the scope is just a happy extra and I'm thinking I would like to upgrade it. A buddy has a Leupold VX-3 on his...

I buying a Winchester Model 70 classic DBM 7mm rem mag soon. From my research this looks be a 94 model that was discontinued in 95 and features a return to the pre 64 action. The serial # is G35604 but it seems that finding build date info for this period at Winchester is not easy.Any one have a...

Looks like I'm going to get a Winchester 70 7mm (woot!) and I would like to travel with it to hunt with my cousin in northern MI and maybe with some friends in SC. The MI trip might involve air travel so I was wondering if the Pelican 1700 is OK with TSA and/or if there is a better choice. I...

I just won a raffle for a Camel 4x4 gift cert. The DI will be getting some HD springs soon and I need shocks. I was thinking the gift cert would be good to use on these shocks but I want to find out how they are first. I'm not familiar with the brand like I am Bilstien or OME.

I'm curious what the price will be on the J8 run that AEV is offering-read about them in OJ. I guess the "component " vehicle designation get's it past the DOT regs on airbags and 5mph bumpers and such so that is a big ?? on final cost but what are the guesses?

I just saw in the news that the moon is full and it's orbit is closest to us as it can be tonight and tomorrow. The moon should appear 14% larger and up to 30% brighter so this would be a good night for some nice big full moon shots. I'm thinking F8 and about 15sec?

I just received this from an MG club in the triangle. They do detailing as a fund raiser in the spring and Waxoyl in the fall. I had my IIa Waxoyl'd by them last year and they did a great job for a very reasonable fee. I know we are not always big on detailing but it doesn't hurt and the fee...

I need to scrape some rust of the middle of my cargo door hinges on the DI and POR 15 the spots. The truck is white and POR does not come in white. If I can paint on the POR than I can make it match(sort of). I will also be painting over the welds and seams from the new cargo floor so it would...

I've been looking for a foreign tag to mount on my roof rack just because I think it will look cool. I would like one of the square styles you often see on the back of trucks. I would like to find an African plate if possible but one from GB would be cool as well. I've not been able to find a...

I got my hands on a CT roof rack for my DI but the factory roof rails had to go so they were cut. The remains of the rails are still up there but I need to get them off. The plan is to use one of the holes to run the lighting snake and I'll need something to plug all of the holes to prevent...

It appears the oil dip stick on my DI was left off or got lost somewhere along the way. I ordered the CD ROM of the manuals but so far the two I've received have problems with loading the PDF's so no diagrams yet. I think I spotted the hole where the dip stick and tube is supposed to go but I...

Hello from 37k feet Delta flight 14 to ATL. I stopped by lrlv while I was in town for a conference and those guys where very cool. I got to check out their series I , RRC CT, 130 and a cool 101 ambulance built into a G4 support truck. Nic, Mark and the gang loaded me up with stickers and such...

I've got a leaking injector that is causing hard starting problems. In another thread it was mentioned that injectors from a Ford 4.6 can be used in place of the LR injectors and they actually work a little better. Does anyone have a part number or from which 4.6 these injectors come from?

I am swapping the very well worn leather seats for cloth in my DI and they need a mild cleaning before I put them in. Anyone have a preference on the cleaning product? I'm thinking something light and foam based-lightly scrub with a brush and shop vac followed by a day in the sun.

I'm getting ready to strip the interior of my DI and was thinking that instead of putting the carpet back in I would prefer a rubber mat flooring option. Is there a source for this material? If anyone is looking for manual seats let me know. I will be pulling out the leather(?) seats and...

I had to share my joy. I am picking up a 94 Discovery on Sunday! The plan is a slow-ish build with a mild lift, maybe wolfs or just larger tires on the same wheels, bumper/winch and maybe a roof rack w/lights. It's not a 5sp but it's an early 94 with the 3.9 (actually that's out of a D90)...

I took the old girl on a road trip saturday-and she made it! As I was being passed by traffic and noticing the many looks of curiosity and those of wonderment from young kids I realized something. When I was that young kid in the back seat of my parents boring sedan the sight of something...

I bought a mint F4s and would love any tips or pointers any of you might have. Is there one guide that is better than any other for this camera? It will be fun shooting a pro film camera and I'm thrilled as I always wanted one of these but could never afford one when they where new. It should...
