Default Today

Finished removing the lug nuts... Bought a 1" impact socket to remove the lug nuts that were messed up... used a flat file to flatten the corners so the 1" socket would go on... hammered on a couple and it was such a pita that I decided filing first was better. Bled the brakes 'till the fluid was clear.. and I still have issues. Brake pads were fine... Changed the rear because they were less than half.

Found two connectors at the front of the gas tank that weren't connected. One two wire and another 3 wire.... don't know if I should be worried.

Still have 3 amigos... pulled codes
Shuttle valve electrical failure
Front right sensor signal erratic
Rear Right outlet valve short to internal supply
Front Right sensor output too low.
ECU ground or Reference ground fault
Open circuit fault in LH pretensioner circuit.

Snugged down the connections to the ABS modulator and the yellow plug under the driver seat. And now all I have is Front right sensor issue... (the connector is broken but still plugs in) I'll clean it up and or bypass the connector.

Don't know anything about the Rear Right Outlet Valve... but it went away after I cleared codes...

Three Amigos still present.

installed Terrafirma 2in lift medium duty springs and shocks today. took about 4 hrs. Then installed 265/75/16 tires mounted on Defender alloys. Truck looks great and actually handles better. 2 in lift should have been standard on these Discos, or maybe the stock springs have sagged over the past 22 yrs. One of the front springs was a little shorter than the other and thinner diameter; weighed about 1 lb less, too. i'm guessing some DPO replaced the spring with whatever he had lying around. That explains why the truck has had a slight list to that side ever since I bought it



new 2in lift springs



new(used) wheels and tires



Bonus! now have a nice looking alloy spare

Default Remote lock

So, I replaced the headliner this weekend. Somewhere between the removal and the install, the remote stopped working. Does anyone know where to start? Where is the remote model? I am sure I put a screw somewhere that caused the issue..thanks
