More misc stuff. Changed out the hand brake leather, the clips that hold the front head lights in (my left one had all 3 broken), and took out one of the jump seats. Getting ready to take it on a road trip to visit family on Easter and taking that seat out gave the 2 dogs a little extra room. Bought a smaller waterproof soft case bag to strap to the top to hold out suitcases and what not.

Very nice.... That's the first one I've seen without the brush guard. I got one sent with just the 'A' bar on the D1... looked good with the Rallye lights too-

Well after getting back to Germany (home is where the Army sends you) last week from 11 months in Afghanistan, I haven't done anything to or with my Disco since October when I was on mid tour leave. But today I did pick up my new Cooper Discover AT3s! I'm recovering from a minor surgery and have family coming to visit tomorrow for a couple of weeks so they will just sit in the garage and make me wish I could get to the shop to mount them, but they are at least here. I went with the 265/60/18 so the next thing might have to be shocks and springs. We'll have to see.

Another Disco owner in Bham here. Your truck looks great! I have always liked that color and the Tactical Rovers Bumper is simple and clean.

My DII returned home after a complete engine rebuild by GPR.

Nice, now you can actually come off a rock and not crumple the fender to the roof!

Cut that resonator at the back, wont see it sticking out anymore, sounds better (slight groan, not obnoxious) and wont mess up/bend the exhaust system if you back up into a rock while on the trail.

Haha yeah, it was cut because I'm installing the Greg Davis rear bumper, it has to be installed, welded, and then taken off to be powder coated. How much louder is it without the rear res? I was thinking about cutting it off right near the exhaust hanger. Can't wait to get rid of that stupid bumper.
