Thanks for all the help and fun!
 

Well the Rover went to an excellent new home last Sunday so I just wanted to tell everyone here thanks for all the help with the Rover and the great times she provided over the last several years. Luckily I will be able to see her progress even more and even catch a ride in her on a few wheeling trips. I'll still check the forum from time to time but probably not nearly as frequently. It's been a great run and maybe I'll get another one in the future!

Man, you're gay. :D

eat a big ole dick

ThBanks for the help Ian, sucks your leaving but I am sure you'll be back, unless you are going jeep ugh if so then you suck lol

Well that sucks.

I'm going brand new F-150 so a toy will be on the back burner for a while. I'll get something else to tinker with eventually!

I would'nt know what to do with myself in a vehicle I didn't constantly monitor and diagnose.

I wouldn't trust it :D

Might I suggest black.
It will go better with your purse and heels. ;)

I've never owned anything remotely new and I need a truck for practical reasons. Plus the ability to tow 10k lbs makes it easy to go full on retard when I get back to a toy!

Oh god, why are all the good Land Rover owners leaving? :(

The douche pool is so deep, it just sucks them in.


Resist, fight the power, never surrender, stiff upper lip, cheerio and all that sort of rot.


I succumbed to a dalliance with a 2001 Cadillac Eldorado, and you talk about a trouble ridden piece of shiot car, it makes the Disco seem downright dependable. The junkyards are full of Cadillacs, though, so parts are easy to get.

The douche pool? Really dude? My truck was a purpose built offroad truck and it succeeded at that very well but it wasn't practical for what I need. Talk **** if you want but I bet I've turned more wrenches on a Rover than you will ever imagine, just ask some of the guys that have been here more than 3 monthes. I got a very fair price for the MASSIVE amount of time and money I invested in it so I sent it on down the road. If you don't like it go sit on one.

I dont think he was being real about calling you a douche. I hope it was a joke at least?

Anywho gimme your mod list CUpgt!!

Oh jeez... I'll give you the big stuff
3" Rte Springs, 12" Fox shocks, custom 6* radius arms with slotted bushings, rear a-arm spacer, custom Johnny jointed trailing arms, custom .25 wall Dom steering and pan hard, custom adjustable front upper shock mounts, 35s on 16x8 pro comps, Detroit /TT, Ashcroft 4.12s, Ashcroft rear axles, Rovertracks fronts, HD drive flanges all around, Saginaw p series power steering pump, BPU HD front drive shaft, Rte front and rear bumper, SD rack, stretched the wheel base a couple inches and the list goes on.

Ian's rig was pretty sick , and he did a lot of the Fab not just buying crap and slapping it on

Is an upgraded front DS needed for a D1 with TF HD 2" 235/85 tires and TF HD front with winch? It's hard to get straight answers. I hear a weird sound on uphill climbs and hard acceleration.

Every D1 behaves slightly differently, but you should not need a DC front shaft with that setup. The need for a DC front shaft would manifest itself in the form of vibration and premature wear on the front u-joints.
