    Exterior Preservation (Keeping the Dang Thing Clean)

    I already had a cracked windshield, lol. Luckily, I planned ahead and got the insurance from the dealer. They replaced the windshield at no cost to me. I put less than 500 miles on it before that. On the other hand, this is my third Jeep over the years, so I’m aware of some of the quirks...

    What about the top? I will pick up some Meguiars for the fenders, does it work on the top as well?

    Thank you for the replies. Right now is the time to do something, while the Jeep is new.

    Exterior Preservation (Keeping the Dang Thing Clean)

    So when wifey and I went looking for a new Jeep Wrangler, we wanted the “full-body” paint and fenders package. Not one to be found anywhere. But, we did find a gorgeous 2021 Rubicon in HellaYella and fell in love with it. And it has the black fenders and black hardtop, in addition to the...

    I have read through the whole post. Beautiful Jeep. I wish we could get an update on how Dice is making out now…

    GAS MILAGE

    I agree, I have no idea what my TJ did. It was the 2.5L/5-speed manual with 4.10's. I didn't buy it for the fuel mileage (and that is a good thing...). Now my 2021 Unlimited Rubicon is bone-stock, with the 2.0L Turbo/8-speed automatic, and I LOVE it. Wifey and I putzed around yesterday after...

    Need Help With Tires/Wheels Please

    What tire sizes will fit my Disco? 255/55 R18 on it now, and my tire guy isn't really helpful, very small town. Looking for tall and narrow, but is there a chart somewhere that will help me determine fit? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Need Help With Tires/Wheels Please

    It does. I agree the narrower tire helps in snow, I just haven't had luck at learning what size to use on the Disco. Also found a deal on a set of Geolanders if I want to go the non-snow tire route. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Need Help With Tires/Wheels Please

    I've learned a lot from the forum after buying my Disco, so help me out with tires! I have a 2003 Discovery SE, with the stock rims and 255/55 R18's on it. The current Falkens are pretty good in summer, but SUCK in the snow. I'm looking for options to replace them and I have found some...

    Help Please! 2003 Disco Will Not Run

    Back up and running. After getting the head gasket and associated "stuff" taken care of, we moved on to the fuel issue. Replaced the fuel pump with a new Bosch original equipment unit, partly because they is the only one I could find. Several vendors said they were back ordered until late...

    Help Please! 2003 Disco Will Not Run

    I agree. I will probably throw one in the toolbox when we get it running again. My fuel pump should be here Friday. Maybe get to drive it this weekend! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Help Please! 2003 Disco Will Not Run

    Thanks for the link guys. I will download it this evening. And I will update the profile here in a few. I'm in extreme East Tennessee. Have a couple buddies with Discos and one has a Series truck as well. I bought mine last fall, been down though, head gasket and now the fuel pump. Sent...

    Help Please! 2003 Disco Will Not Run

    FSM is the Field Service Manual? No, I have nothing but the owners manual. Where can I get the books? Thought about ordering a Chiltons guide. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Help Please! 2003 Disco Will Not Run

    Ok! I knew I could get help here! I am not a mechanic, and this is my first LR, so I am at a disadvantage. We will check on the fuel pump in the morning. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Help Please! 2003 Disco Will Not Run

    Ok, it will turn over just fine, and will fire with a squirt of ether, but will not run. Fuel pressure is about 40 psi. What should it be? Any guidance is appreciated! I really like this thing, but have sure had a lot of trouble with it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
