I was going to work on my locking issue but now I have decide which driveshaft to buy. Recently bought the truck and heard about the front driveshaft taking out transmissions. Decided to dig deep and found this. Probably explains my weird hum on deceleration too.
Dervish, moving the wiper arm helps, but tires larger than 32ish will not clear the bumper.
I have a 285/75/16 Toyo open country mt on my TD5, stock carrier, flipped, turned the wiper a bit up, and it clears the bumper, just. https://imgur.com/zA93j8o
By some tirecalculators it's ~32.8", havent measured the actual size tho.
Maybe someday can spend on a steel rear bumper and bumper mounted tirecarrier, but having 3 discos, the list to do and to buy... is looooooooong....
Same, I have had 33s on more than one flipped carrier.
You can clock the wiper arm instead of trimming the carrier, but you do still need to redrill the center bolt hole on either side to line back up with the hole in the door.
Second weak into disco ownership, we got oil leaks lol. Not sure where, but only a couple drops after a drive.
Detailed and ordering pcv valve and t-stat mods!
I'm jealous! That's the red color I wanted when I bought my truck 20+ years ago! It's called Rutland Red. I don't know production numbers, but I think it's more uncommon than the red on my truck, Rioja Red. Not as uncommon as the orangeish Kinversand, but uncommon.
I think Rutland Red was available on the DII for only the first couple years. The darker red on later DIIs was Alveston Red, which I called Why Bother Red.

Where are you located?
Thanks! I'm located in KC. It certainly is rutland red. Fun color, really shows off the contrasting details of the truck! I haven't found much info or prior sales on this color so I can only assume prod #'s for this color aren't too high.
Picked up another.... This is #7 currently. Poorly spray bombed orange - factory Kinversand I'm hoping I can recover. Has wiring issues to sort out first.

They painted over Kinversand??? That is sacrilegious!! I guess they must not have known what they had.
