So i bought a 99 disco II. Think i got a pretty good deal on it, it has 120000 miles and all seems to be square other than some valve cover leaks. Couple questions I have are

Where is the best place to buy aftermarket parts for the Disco?

Is there an online owners manual that I can read to see all the functions of the Vehicle?

What is the largest tire you can run on the stock rim/stock suspension?

I am sure I will have many more questions in the years to come so this is sort of an intro


Thanks

 

Read the stickys on the top of the DI and DII pages.
Search for the Rave manual, its a free download.
www.atlanticbritish.com
www.rovahfarm.com
www.roversnorth.com, get on their snail mail list.
I have no idea about tire size.
Keep them coming.

 

if you have stock suspension with that many miles and 16" rims and you plan on going off road, you might as well stick at the stock size tire and just get a more aggressive tread because your sagging springs aren't going to give you much room or articulation and shoving a bigger tire under there is pointless. go get yourself a terrfirma +2 medium spring and shock set and then invest in some 265/17/16's.

 

X2 for what Spike and Ed said above, but I'd add guys like PT Schram (http://www.ptschram.com), Will Tillery (www.roverguy.com), and Marty "Drillbit" Powell (a.k.a.- eBay ID: iamthedrillbit) for OEM and used parts.

Also, don't forget the guys at Lucky8LLC (http://lucky8llc.com or a.k.a.- eBay ID: OEMROVER) . They have both OEM and aftermarket parts, quick shipping and great service. (Like all of the other vendors above.)
