Finis. Just gotta change the oil and get a jug of coolant

 

Two thumbs up^^^^

 

 

camera system done!

By the turn of the ****, the chosen camera is displayed on the head unit. Backup cam will switch on regardless when in reverse.

 

1100 mile road trip in Randy. Gas mileage so high i'm not posting it because no Rover owner would believe it (suffice to say more than 300 miles between gas stations).

Low cruising temp was 183F. High idle temp was 189F.

Spotify tunes are nice. Backup camera means i can see even when bags are stacked high in rear. GPS on double din screen was ideal.

Freakin love the Crower cam! Sweet power and idle.

AC blower is weak, though. Old. Nice having the Elm327 for realtime engine data.

No false alarms for the new automatic fire extinguisher for the engine bay, thankfully.

Used up a bottle of power steering fluid though...

 

had some gnarled rear rotors. changed them and the pads out with EBC's and started bedding them. much better.

 

Collided with a quad today on a mountain truck trail... he was coming downhill on loose gravel road, around a bend, going at least 40, hit driver side and rolled up and over the side mirror. He tore his control arm in half and was leaking fluid. Thankfully no injuries. Disco came out alright... some gouges in the headlight, body dent, and broken side mirror. Kind of put a damper on the rest of the trip..

 

 

Same experience here. Stops like a different vehicle.

 

Finished the lift on my Land Rover, adding the rear spacers underneath the rear air springs. Thereafter, had Nitto Terra Grappler 2's installed - 265/65R18's. Lucky8 was out of Terraforma spacers, so they sourced these nice Britpart 40mm spacers - high quality and the rig sits just about right between the rear and the front. Nice thing with keeping the air springs is I can get an extra 2" of lift in the rear at the push of a button.
