Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen.
I have been creeping around the forum a lot, mostly in the Toyota LC forum. But I have been looking at the Disco/Disco II's lately.
What are some of the major issues with the Discos? I am aware of the head gasket issue around 100K but what else?
Is there a company that makes a better head gasket then the factory? When I use to race Hondas' a main stream company made a head gasket for the Honda motors. I know these are not performance vehicles but I would like something a little more reliable then factory. But if you guys/gals recommend the factory one I will go with it.
How are the transmissions, the center diff? Does this system work similar to a Land Cruiser (full time AWD) but a locking center diff?
What is the factory wheel size on the Disco and Disco II? Is it possible to step down in wheel size to increase the sidewall when it comes to tires?
With a 2-2.5" lift what are the biggest tires you can run (looking to run at least 33's)?
Is is worth getting aftermarket lockers and gears?
I know I am asking a lot of questions but feel free to add more information as well.
