Yeah, perhaps that will be the case. I think I will give the Gorilla a try plus use the dashboard repair kit to reinforce the area along the windshield. Worst case is it does not work and I have a back up with Charlie's dash. We'll see.

Sounds like a plan, no doubt worth giving it a try.
Let us know how it goes when you do it. That applies to both the dash and the thermo mod, of course. :P
Picked up the Disco today. Really happy with the purchase. It is in great shape and I think will work great for my projects. The dash is warped A LOT worse then originally observed so that is definitely a project ;-) So, driving home I got the 3 amigos. Threw the scanner on when I got back home and got the two following codes. Do these suggest a replacement of the shuttle valve assembly? Or that and something else? Sorry. Real nube here but want it to be perfect.

If you don't mind the expense, a new shuttle switch should fix the issue. But there is a way to modify it (search for shuttle option B) that isn't too difficult and ensures that the error won't return.
I did option B on one rover and it worked. On the other, I took the shuttle switch off and it was rusted to pieces. That rover was down until I got a new switch and I sort of regretted the entire project because of the wait.
So it is a coin toss.
The second one was a rusty rover. If yours isn't, the option b should work.

Thanks Charlie! I'll see what a replacement SVS is, otherwise Option B seems like a no-brainer.
That looks like a good one but there is no mention of what u joints they use. If they don't use common ones, replacements can be irritating and more expensive.
Fully greasable is the way to go.
You might check lucky8 (a forum sponsor). If memory serves they have a HD shaft and do a discount for forum members. Ask for Erik.
