My trunk is turning into one hell of a mess and the parts can't come quick enough. I'm just waiting on brake calipers and new lug nuts and then it'll be time to put the new brakes and lift on. I'm waiting on some stuff for the cooling system as well so theres not much to work on yet

Threw on my Terrafirma lift kit this weekend as well as desperately needed new lug nuts to replace the old beat to hell ones. The old stuff was pretty crusty and kind of a pain to get off, but generally rust free at least. I also swapped the hard coolant lines with 5/16 fuel line after snapping a couple trying to move the coolant reservoir out of the way to get at the top bolt of the front shock. I did the same thing on my last Disco and it held up well and it's easy to carry plenty of spare feet of it should you develop a leak. The one thing I couldn't do was my brakes and extended brake lines because 3 of my new calipers didn't come with banjo bolts so I gotta wait for new ones to arrive. I suppose I could use the old ones, but why not replace as much as possible instead of relying on 25 year old parts. The new fan and clutch plus serpentine belt will go on at some point soon as well, but that's always kind of a PITA so probably a job for next weekend when it cools down a bit.

Looking good! Those stock front bumpers are weak plastic, but l sure do like the looks of them. Rare to see one intact. You really got me missing my 01.

Thank you! Yeah I'm pretty surprised at how well it's held up, the rear bumper is in pieces though so I'm at least getting half of the Disco 2 experience haha.
