My 1996 Discovery

[achampagne]

Installed the Adventure roof rack and a the rear ladder today:

The winch and discreet mount are here waiting for install, the light is on the fedex truck, along with the awning for the rack.

Added a rear work light:

added leather seats:

Added new 3 way switch and removed the ashtray and added 2 more aux light switches for clean factory look:

awning installed

Awning deployed.

Not sure if this falls under the MOD category but I sure gained some room back.

air compressor, fire ext., 3 straps, tire repair kit, bag of straps and anchors for awning, tool kit.

Before:

After:

Flooring for the rack installed. I am very happy with how it turned out!

Got out for fathers day by taking the long way to the grocery store for normal duties. went down a local C6 which we seem to be losing to developlment, lots of cutting going on.

Winch install:

Stock front end.

Got the lower half of the bumper removed, and gained some much needed approach angle gains.

I am going to pull the fairlead off and flat black rattle can the whole tray.

Installed the connection in the grill, as the factory winch option wasn't going to work with this application.

everything is starting to come together, but again I am out of town all week and next weekend is more home shopping. Not sure when I'll get more time to work on her. Still waiting for the lift as well.

Got the winch plate painted and everything with a fitting greased.

Looks good. I would ditch the roller and get a hawse, it won't last more than a wheeling trip or a winter or two being that low.

you need to work out a better place for that fire extinguisher, when that thing bounces around and breaks the plastic top off you are going to be really bumming.

I actually moved it to the map pocket on the back of the drivers seat the same day, I plan on mounting it w/some quick fists on the rear door panel.

Man I'm so glad to see someone else using the ipod to cassette adapter.:sombrero: I don't know what I would do without mine.

Great looking Disco BTW.
What sort of awning is that?

 

[achampagne]

Haha, yeah it's the only way for me to use my ipod, thanks for the compliments, the awning is from camping lab www.campinglab.com it's the 70 if I remember right. It works wicked pissah! In the rain or sun.
