DAMN! Busted! I feel like I've been caught doing something dirty. Lol-I was going to make an announcement. I miss my pig. But this RRC is soooooo sexy. The heart wants what it wants... If it matters, I still have the '80! Even so, Ige is disgusted with me... By the way:wth are YOU doing here??

Your thread on that build and what is possible helped push me over the edge to buy Pippa. I'm very familiar with the GM diesels as I rode in HUMMWVs for 10 years. But I'm thinking if it comes to that, a 350 TBI with accoutrements could be the simplest, most trouble-free solution for me. But...

Thanks for the advice, but you have me mistaken good sir! I will NOT be doing the work on this one. At least not something of this magnitude. When I bought it, I knew I would get clipped for a few thousand on things like the transmission, tc, electrical gremlins etc. I've flown almost 60 round...

I wouldn't say yours is any less awesome than mine! I love seeing what other people do to their rigs. I'm always torn between keepin' it classy (cause I like the classic look of vehicles) or modifying it extensively. I'm going to eventually go with a Brownchurch roof rack, some offroad lights...

I just reread this: are you sayin the ENTIRE ROOF is a bolt on affair?

Is this a straight bolt-in affair? Or will it require some sort of adaptor/conversion kit?

Still available? Do you have to drill holes into the sills to attach the rock sliders, or are the holes already there? Consider shipping?

Answered my own question. https://forums.lr4x4.com/topic/88652-lt230-or-borg-warner-pros-and-cons/

Educate me please-what's the deal with the LT230 vs the Borg-Warner? I'm assuming it's compatible with the tranny that will mate to my 3.9L? Anything else I should convert over to?

I was 5'7" before football and jumping out of airplanes...definitely not an issue!

Thanks for the offer-my understanding is that the sunroof doesn't leak. The issue now is there is something jammed between the glass & metal roof, preventing it from closing. No idea howIm going to resolve that. Better figure it out quick...

Paint on the bonnet is oxidized beyond a simple rubbing and polishing compound solution. My green FZJ80 was the same way. Something about green paint from the '90s. I've already purchased the white "Range Rover" letters for the bonnet. I suspect a body shop will charge $400ish to paint the...

Thanks for the encouragement! After some research I've determined it has the Borg-Warner Transfer Case. I've had to do some research because this morning I was about to drive it and the transmission started emitting a horrible screeching and grinding sound when I put it in park. I took it out...

Thanks guys for the welcome and comments! Xtracrispy-I was in San Diego on business last week and tried to look at a RRC on CL there. The guy flaked on a meeting time/location when my plane landed. Just as well. I'm actually in SD quite often... Ray_G-'You're right-'92 was the only year for the...

Im interested in the swingout for the Range Rover. I'm assuming this is for the classic?

Hello everyone! I've been on Expo for years, but over in the Land Cruiser forum. After years of hearing about reliability issues, electrical gremlins, & out of the box capability, I still thought the RRCs were sexy as hell. On Friday, after selling my belived '69 FJ55 "Ol Roy", I purchased a...

This had to have sold...

Text sent-even though this ad is super old!

I escaped Boca Raton yesterday and am in Atlanta, Ga. I really appreciate everyone's comments! It's given me a lot to think about. Hope to make it to Redline today to pickup the 80 parts. In the meantime, I'm all over the place on what to do. Man, I love driving the 55. It took me all over...

I'm working with my insurance on this one. My gut tells me he wasn't driving his own car. But that won't matter.
