    Lug nutz and an idea

    I saw the Lucky8 video from the UK where they were demonstrating the swaybar diaconnect that used a locking hub on one side to operate it. What was especially cool was it used a disco axle shaft for part of the sway bar system that that could be removed and used as a spare in a pinch. I...

    Lug nutz and an idea

    I've been thinking along the same lines. I'm now thing about doing it " in reverse". Having the key ways milled into the sway bar ends and having the "key" machined as part of the sleeve. I don't know if this would work either. I'm no metallurgist. That's why I'm putting this out to get...

    Cummins swap

    Keep the 4.11s and add an overdrive if one is available for that tcase. Beat of both worlds. It is another added cost though.

    Lug nutz and an idea

    I've read several posts about people removing the sway bars and not missing them. Especially if they have installed HD springs. High crosswinds are the only downside from what I understand. We get that from time to time here in Oklahoma. You know that old wind comes sweeping down the plains...

    Lug nutz and an idea

    Here us the after. I also used a 12 ga brass bore brush soaked with PB to clean out the lug holes in the wheels. I then put a very light coat of spray lithium grease on the lugs and wiped off the excess. I think this will go a long way towards preventing the swollen lug syndrome i've read...

    Lug nutz and an idea

    I haven't had the wheels off my truck since it's purchase and today I decided to pull them and look at the brakes. WOW. It's a good thing I haven't had a flat because I'd have never gotten the lugs off without my shop tools. After removing them I spent some time spraying them with PB and brass...

    Your buyers kung **** must be strong my son. What a deal!:Wow1: At least now I know who to call if I'm buried up to the frame down on the river. These things work great in the quicksand down there.

    Universal Land Rover Wiring Diagram

    You actually ate them? I just take them into work each morning to get points with my co-workers. Kind of like feeding the sea lions at the zoo. A couple of them have really benefitted from the Scone based rewards training.

    Universal Land Rover Wiring Diagram

    I jumpered around the electric eel on mine. Now each morning hot buttered scones pop out of the console at precisely 7:03 am. Quite handy:ylsmoke:. Not sure if this will work on the D1 though.

    The start of "Project Blackwater"

    I can see how there could be some cool factor associated with that. I've never seen it before, but I'm still a newbie to the LR world. Much to learn have I from the Land Rover Jedi.

    "The tire companies just add them to placate the ungentele masses", he said with a snide British accent.

    The start of "Project Blackwater"

    Definitely mounted facing in. White letters showing are just like so gauche. :ylsmoke: Not Roverish at all.

    Discovery II front rotor removal

    If you don't already have one, go by Harbor Freight and get a dead blow hammer. It will be one of the handiest tools in your kit. It won't bend or mar anything but it still packs a wallop! About $5-7. Trust me:ylsmoke: it's money well spent.

    1988 toyota pickup- HELP!

    Finally beat that $&@"? bad boy. 3 different nights I heated it red hot let the glow die, and hit it with a 3/4 impact @ 140psi. Today it came out and the threads were perfect. I don't understand but I'm happy. :wings:

    water storage

    I love these things ( http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=561576 ). Swiss military water bags. if you hang them in the sun they make a great source of hot water. I made an adapter to use on for a shower. They are extremely tough too. They will impart a slight taste to the...

    Quickie Rover River Trip

    Great way! And it's only 10 min from the house! Most of the river access areas around here have been closed. It was nice to find one that's not posted. I talked to one man who lives close by. He said occasionally the law will come by, but as long as people aren't being heathens they are cool.
