nuclearw - you will find on the stock radio two antennas, from the two back side glass. One is FM. The other is FM/AM. My PO did an aftermarket radio, selected the wrong one, and could only get FM. And there are times when you want whatever is on AM, be it a ballgame, local news, talk radio, etc.

I pulled the headliner so I can do something with it (paint or refabric still deciding) and try to identify some goofy wiring that was done by the P.O.
and scoured the entire forum for info on the radio so I can try to put in my aftermarket w/ bluetooth .. lol finally found a pinout of the radio now time to match it up.

Haven't been on the forum since my truck went in for repairs. Since then, got the radiator recored, changed the water pump and the thermostat, new shocks and steering stablizer. Also, the issue with my tranny losing the overdrive seems to have corrected itself and the old girl is almost a normal Disco again. No more overheating - not even in heavy traffic. The temp doesn't even reach the halfway point. Woo Hoo!! Now, I just have to stop the steering box leak.

Got a new upgraded 1000 CCA battery for 40 bucks. Wasn't my first choice in brands but old one was under warranty and I slapped on the 40 bucks to upgrade to a Gold battery. Put in my new serp belt.
Was gonna order my lift kit this morning but I cant seem to find the Terrafirma 3" lift I read about here. Only the 2". I dunno. More research I guess. The TF204 is probably the way I will go. Cant afford the OME stuff.

progress
Lots of progress today...
New tires (could only go one size bigger than what came on the vehicle)
new lube in the swivel joint (the stuff that came out...EEWWW)
lubed the diff's
unexpected repairs include over heating due to a hole in lower rad hose...now to find one.
all jobs where not as difficult due to all the advice on this site.
thanks to all
