So what did you do to your Disco today?
#3391
Replaced all interior and exterior lights, except headlights, with LEDS. Now I have the fast blinking turn signals, saw a way to fix it but doesn't bother me very much. Also, replaced the inside of the back door with wood. Saw it on ruggedguide's facebook. Mine isnt' as pretty as theirs, but one day it will be.

Busy day today...
Replaced my drag link ends, track rod ends and adjusted swivel pre-load on my '98 D1 today. It would have been a pretty easy job but it was raining and the drag link ends were STUCK. Bent my drag link so I'll be looking for another. The pre-load was much easier than expected. Another thing in the near future will be rebuilding the swivels. There were 3 shims before I started, now 1 on each side.
I had planned on replacing the panhard bushings and install some used Bilstiens I picked up, but by 3 o'clock, I was wet and over it.
On a test drive, the "death wobble" at 65 seems to have been cured, but my steering wheel is askew. Taking a small trip tomorrow, so I don't know if I want to shorten the drag link in the morning or deal with a crooked steering wheel til Wednesday.

How do you remove the exhaust manifold studs(where it connects to the y-pipe) when they break?
Noticed one side was loose, so I tried to tighten it and the stud broke. I left the other two alone.

Installed the blinker tech relay, now back to normal blinking speed. Bought some leds off of amazon that people put under their headlights, wired the pair up and stuck them to the ceiling, I now have the brightest dome lights ever. I also wired some to the inside of my hood, in very safe spots, now I can see the engine at night.
My "new" front diff came in a 5 gallon bucket yesterday and the "new" drive shaft should be in tomorrow. I have a 97 with slightly over a 2" lift, I read that the lift could of torn both of these up. When I go to reinstall both is there anything that needs to be different to not have them break again? FYI the new ones coming in are both stock, did not upgrade.
