Default Disco 2 AC Drain plug relocation

Hey everyone, I've been a long time reader, not posting though. I read about some problems with the AC drain plugs dripping right onto the driveshaft on one side and the electrical connectors for the trans on the other side. I figured I would attempt to alleviate this problem by relocating them. I never had the drain 'nipple' in mine, just rubber tube going into the car. I 3D printed some little adapters that just slide in the rubber piece that's already there and used some random hose I had to redirect the water somewhere else. I haven't used them the car on or been out on the road, but it seems promising. Lemme know what you guys think!



passenger side

driver side. I zip tied the hose to some linkage on the transfer case making sure there was always a downwards slope.

Thank you! I'm going to try this. I've had this on my to-do list ever since springing for a new xyz switch ($$$).

I just finished LS swapping it so there's not much down there except a little transfer case leakage that the blue devil trans sealant hasn't taken care of yet!

Very nice job with these parts. I plan on giving them a try very soon. Also, always nice to hear about another LS Disco on the forum!
