Had the damper off when we dropped oil pan, so finally installed my new one.

I need to drop my oil pan, and re seal it. I have a tiny bit of oil seeping past the gasket. I haven't seen any drips on the ground, but once I got the vacuum pump replaced and the engine cleaned, I can see a little oil around the pan gasket.

I'm not in a big hurry, but I don't want to let it go too long. I am definitely not a "Type A" personality, but I am **** about my vehicle maintenance and care.

Between this Discovery, and my 1988 HJ61 Land Cruiser, I need to just put a cot and little fridge in the garage. Seems like I always have one or the other in there on jack stands.

Installed HD TF steering rods. Is there any way to tighten up the steering wheel? I already did the swivels. Thoroughly

If you have to replace the caliper it's a great time to consider the D90 caliper upgrade.

I double this AND SS steel brake lines

The calipers are the same price as ours. Just have to get the rotors too. But that's not a bad thing.
