Finally got my windshield cowl and installed it. Replaced the washers on the wiper arm attachment with stainless steel washers (5/8"). Clips from the old one to secure the foam filter, so hopefully it doesn't get pushed out anymore.
Besides I did my 30k miles service: diffs, TC, transmission fluid changes.

I'm doing mine right now. Pulled the hood off so I can do blackout vinyl at the same time.
I didn't have a plan for the big metal washers. The exposed side had quite the "patina." Got lucky as the underside still had a nice coat of black paint. If I wasn't already in the job, I'd go with the stainless washers, for sure.
Trailmix, do you have RR or LR3 wheels? I ordered a set to try but Amazon says the Eisen Performance ESN 1415 lug nuts are not compatible with D2.
I've had "20 RR wheels and 18" Discovery Hurricanes held on with steel RR nuts. These black Eisen nuts fit great and in the pics a few threads earlier, they're on 18" black Hurricanes.

I'm probably being paranoid but compared to the OE D2 wheel nuts the Eisen nuts have a significantly smaller shoulder so I'm just going to remove my chrome caps and return the Eisen nuts.
After much searching I found these steel wheel lug nuts: LRC2439

I dont think you're being paranoid. I see what you mean by the thinner shoulder. It doesn't bother me, as I think it would require some pretty unfathomable (possibly otherworldly and nearly impossible) pressure to strip the shoulder off 5 bolts, allowing the wheel to slide off. I'll post here if they do break. Meanwhile, those nuts you found look good too. And they have black.
