01 Disco 90K Service

RE: 01 Disco 90K Service
Did you just buy the truck, are you sure it had a complete 60K?
Here is my normal list of stuff to do as a major service, If it had a tune up, with plugs and wires, just do all the rest.

This is the parts list for a 60,000 mile service the way I do it.
1 Oil filter , K&N 3001
1 Air filter
1 Transmission filter kit
6 Qts of engine oil
12 Qts of ATF
7 Qts of 80/90W gear oil

2 Qts of synthetic Power steering fluid
2 Gallons of OAT, orange coolant
1 Bottle of Lucas Power Steering additive
1 Bottle of Lucas Transmission additive
1 Can of Spray Carb Spray
1 Can Of Brake cleaner
8 Spark Plugs, I use Bosch Platium Plus 4's
1 Set of Magnacor 8mm plug wires
1 Serpentine belt if not yet replaced
2 Bottles of SeaFoam
60,000 Mile Service
Bleed the brakes
Flush and change the power steering fluid adding one bottle of additive
Service the tranny adding one bottle of additive
Flush the coolant system
Do an engine flush before changing the oil
Do an induction cleaning
Clean the throttle body
Add fuel additive to full gas tank
Change both of the diffs fluid
Change the t/case oil
Replace the plugs and wires
Replace the air filter
Lube all the drive shaft grease fitting including the 2 slip shafts
Do full inspection of brakes, hoses, bushings etc.
Hopefully I didn't leave anything out.

Just purchased 1 month ago. Truck appears to be in excellent condition considering mileage (99k) and plugs, plug wires, and fluids seem to be in great shape. Oil appeared recently changed or very clean ( even after severall hundred miles of driving) and overall engine appearance is excellent with NO leaks! I took the truck to the dearlership toget a heads up on service and through the vin# Rover has no records of maintenance of the truck since 20k. Any advice appreciated!

A couple of thoughts, nothing seem as they are, when buying someones 4 wheeler never assume anything, change out all the fluids, looking for water, coolant and or metal. I know for a fact that the power steering fluid and the brake fluids are fried on your truck, and I haven't even looked at them.
You spent some bucks on this truck and I would assume you plan to keep it for awhile and play hard, so start you truck off with all new fluids, filter additives and whatever else it needs so it won't come bite you in the ***.
By the way, what year is the truck? Also, always rum high octane gas, no cheap stuff or it will cost you big time.

Either synthetic gear oil either as a 90W or because of my lockers and the type of wheeling I do I use a 85W/140 GL6 rates gear oil.
The factory say's use the synthetic, in both the diffs and the t/case, I just went a step up and went to a GL6 rated extra high performance gear oil.
Hope I didn't confuse you. Rovers have weak diff's so the better the oil the longer they will hold up.
