Reluctantly selling my Rover, need something with more doors/seats. I'm considering trades as well!.
-------
1984 Land Rover 90 300TDI
ALWAYS starts even in the very cold, not too much smoke, runs great
Great fuel economy.
Replaced battery with new Bosch (warranty from Pep Boys)
Added an oil pan engine block heater
Changed all fluids, including gearboxes, diffs, brakes, steering fluids, etc
Changed water pump
Changed all U-Joints
All new brakes around (last winter from Roverland (aka Overland 4x4) in Alexandria, VA, this spring from Rover Repairs here in Philly)
Did the timing belt last year
Put on 1 of the 2 flipup side steps I bought recently (the other one will be included I just haven't gotten around to installing it).
Replaced a bad shock
Replaced a broken front windshield sprayer (have the rear one just haven't put it on yet)
Interior:
3 Jumpseats installed - I have a 4th base but not the back, will be included
Lined the entire rear area (after repainting) with thick rubber matting, which helped a LOT with insulation and noise. Put in a rubber mat and a carpet as well.
Put in Pioneer 6x9's in the rear using Defendoor boxes
Replaced the dash speakers with pioneers as well
Replaced the radio with an Alpine MP3 HD radio
Replaced broken antenna with a rubberized shorty one.
The stereo sounds great.
Exterior:
Good glass all around.
Ospho'ed the ENTIRE frame and anywhere else that needed it. Then POR 15'ed the frame as well.
Exhaust from the Resonator/Muffler back is brand new.
Added a NAS front bumper + Brushguard
Put a stainless steel grill on, which was painted with plastidip and rustoleum hammered grey (original plastic grill will be included)
3 x Hella 500s, 2 are amber and on 1 switch, 1 clear driving light on another circuit. All with Relays.
Rear worklight with 2 activation switches (rear switch will turn on regardless of ignition position, front switch turns on with ignition)
Custom Susquehanna Motorsports headlight wiring harness
Tires are 4 BFG AT's 265/75R16 and a Michelin 7.5R16 spare (matching wheel)
Fixed up lots of little things, bulbs, etc
Not sure what else to list, please feel free to ask questions.
Probably could use a rear crossmember at some point. I haven't really addressed that yet. I will include the part only if the new buyer desires.
Shifts great, no issues driving it every day, very reliable.
Clear PA Title + inspection
Extra parts included, a new flip up driver's side step, used but in good shape flip up rear step, a galvanized rear crossmember step, rear washer nozzle, new door lock cylinders (if I can find them), original plastic grill, a 4th matching Jumpseat base only, other stuff as I find it.
