    95 h1 hummer

    I didn't know they came in pimp purple or is that a re-spray? What is that on the hood-it looks like some sort of scoop with a spoiler on top!?

    Land Rover Discovery 1 or 2, or Range Rover Classic 1 or 2

    Mechanically the RRC's and DI's are similar. You will be able to find "newer" DI's as the RR's changed to the P38 style in the mid 90's. The higher roof profile of the Discovery gives the truck an airy, open feel inside that makes it seem larger. The LWB RRC's have a limo like back seat but that...

    Hey Pete, Good to hear. I'm glad you added belts, that was something I always planned to do...

    Hey Pete, Good to hear. I'm glad you added belts, that was something I always planned to do. What did you do to tighten the steering? I'll keep an eye out for the axles but you can also check with George of Rovers Down South, he's a good source for Series parts and won't kill you on price. From...

    Tour de France 2011

    I think you could add "this year" to that question. I don't know but I wonder if the on/off weather hasn't run down his system and maybe his age is showing. It was cold and wet all day so even if your 100% that is a long hard day. Kudos to the mighty Thor for taking another stage in the rainbow...

    Show me your best rover modification.

    Oh good, I was worried for a minute there as his post had a past tense feel to it. The door seals are not hard at all to change. Just pull the interior trim piece with the weather sealing attached off, clean up any glue residue that is there (there was hardly any on mine) and fit the new...

    Want to ride ,never have before, where to start?

    Where do I want to go....great question. I want to take the quiet roads and stop at tiny BBQ shacks, I want to ride the desert and attempt to capture the Alpenlight on film that Galen Rowell blew me away with, I want to take the cross county trip that I passed on when I was 18 for a summer job...

    Show me your best rover modification.

    I didn't know you sold your DI Scott, hope it went to a good home. I just changed out my door seals with the kit Will Tillery sells, very nice change as they are at least twice as thick as the stock seals. I can't say it's the "best" mod I've made but it provides a drop in wind noise and help...

    Want to ride ,never have before, where to start?

    I appreciate all the great advice, one thing I did want to mention. I don't plan to ride 2 up as my wife is pretty clear she does not share my interest and prefers the pass seat of the DI. I checked the safety course schedule today and will sign up for that soon, I've also been looking around...

    Is that what the origin is??? I didn't know if it was the big cat or what.

    Tour de France 2011

    I read his quote in the paper today, what a great spirit to admit he has little hope of holding the jersey to the end but promising to do his best to keep it. What fresh honesty! With that great attitude it makes everyone wish he could be able to hold it all the way. France may not get the...

    '07 Power Wagon w/ Ute bed, extras, warranty

    Tough market these days, bump for a great Power Wagon. It may sound cliche but this is one you really should see to get a real feel of how well it is executed and built.

    Tour de France 2011

    I'm hoping he's riding into his form over the first week or so and when the mountains really begin he'll make his move. Is the weather off in France (haven't been following closely) as several riders seem off-like Cav, he doesn't have his overdrive this year.

    Tour de France 2011

    I've also noticed the AC is either well off form or maybe his brush with a doping bust has kept him off the sauce. I also wonder the same about Vino as he's never been the same after his "comeback". I have to admit I don't miss the chessy "pistolero" salute from AC. The crashes just seem to get...

    Want to ride ,never have before, where to start?

    Great advice, I'm absorbing everything I can. If it helps, I'm 5'9" and very equally built-so my legs and torso are very similar, 30" inseam, 30" arms. If I was flexible enough I could fold in half like a jacknife. As for build, I'm a typical stocky Polish guy, wide shoulders, broad chest, hard...

    1st time Discovery owner, have a few questions

    Welcome to the assylum, we have your padded room ready...:ylsmoke: Rovers north, Atantic Brittish, Brittish Pacific are all good large sources. Roverguy (Will Tillery) PT Schram, and George at Rovers Down South are great smaller scale sourced and often have used parts and trim items that you...

    Want to ride ,never have before, where to start?

    Great suggestions guys and yes Marc I think we may have been separated at birth! I was thinking a dual sport type bike in the 400 range would be a good place to start, sounds like is a winner. I was also planning to take the safety course and maybe the course that BMW has at their center in SC...

    Huge AZ Dust Storm 7/5/2011

    Wow! I would expect the four horsemen to be leading that storm in as the world comes to an end! I guess if anyone in Phoenix ever wondered what it was like to live in Mali they now have there answer.
