Oh boy, 98 Disco I (stock) is running great, but ...

Thermostat (runs cold) -- have tstat need to put in
Fuel temp sensor (runs rough when warm starting) -- have replacement
Leak in steering hoses (not bad)
Pinion seal leak (not bad enough to pool on ground; maybe blocked breather??)
Slow battery drain -- unidentified
Miscellaneous electrical stuff:
- rear window; passenger power seat; driver power seat only works if door is open (wtf?); radio code; who knows what else I haven't even tried
Cracked windshield (because I was careless with the snowblower)
Cracked cargo window seal
T-case shifter: needs cleaning, sometimes hard to get neutral alarm or CDL light to go off.

So you post what's broke here, then to the "what did you do today" thread to post that you fixed it.

Man I'm not taking anything down, I have the rear ac. I know I'll break all kinds of crap. I'm going to just seal from outside to.

I have rear a/c and already had the hl out once it is a pita by yourself, maybe I can remove some trim and drop it to access the bolts
