So what did you do to your Disco today?

$240 shipped off eBay, aluminum
while my temps are OK in the cold I was still having issues in warm weather even after head gaskets and roddin the rad.
ESP with a/c on
So it will either fix the problem or not, think I am also going to deep 6 the mech fan and go electric
Today replaced the thermostat, was stuck open

E fans can move plenty of air. Where most people go wrong is not shrouding them correctly and spending the coin on a nice set of flexilites that fit the radiator and move enough air. I have thought about this and have a decently shrouded set of fans but never have fooled with it.

That was my reasoning! Lol. The fans I have are off of a Ford Probe GT. Originally one is a cooling fan and the other is an AC fan. The shroud fits the radiator almost perfectly. I may try it one of these days.

Scored an Atlantic British trailer light adapter at the 'yard for 10 bucks, a PS mirror to replace the one I broke wheeling, and the OEM home link garage opener.
Also found a great deal on a recently rebuilt alternator, which was rebuilt by a legit local specialist shop not auto zone junk...
So my Discos gonna get a lotta love!

After about 2 years of "I'm gonna", I finally wired my winch controls to inside the cab of my truck. The hardest part was running the wires through the firewall and snaked up into the switch sockets.
Volume + = Winch Out
Volume - = Winch In
I'm going to wire in a cut-off switch to eliminate accidental bumping of the switches. The pic is unimpressive but the look is sano for sure.
Tomorrow I'll be mounting my waffle grates on my roof rack.
