Made from aluminum and powder coated, solid construction, can be easily installed or taken out by sliding down the windows.
Link please?

I bought them in Europe when I was there last year. There was an offer on ebay (US), but I can't find them anymore.

Seems like a pretty attractive upgrade. Are you able to control the audio w the steering wheel buttons?

I should have taken a photo, but I am getting ready to adjust the alignment, it is slightly off. The nuts and adjuster are frozen, I figured rather than buy a new one out of the gate I would try to break the rust. Heat did not work. I soaked a shop towel in brake fluid and wrapped it around the threaded parts and cut a 1 liter bottle to wrap around the towel and zip tied it all together. I hope once it attempt the adjustment things will be free enough that I can get them adjusted. It is barely out of alignment, so hopefully a quarter turn or so gets it done.

ram track and phone mount mounted in my classic. Will do this in my white disco later this spring as well. Nice and simple and a real nice phone placement for directions

Started head gasket job this morning. I saved the worst for last, the exhaust haha. Wish me luck!

Just ordered an Ashcroft CDL shifter, hoping it gets here in time (my own fault for waiting so long to order!)

While I'm deep in here I am also going to replace the power steering components that keep peeing all over my driveway as well as oil pan gasket and transmission pan gasket... Also continuing to chip away at disco mikes to do list for new owners of old discoverys

I’m about to start on this for my D2.
I received a D1 tranny pan from Will Tillery in great condition. I already had the D1 dipstick and tube I got from a Pull-a-part in Atlanta.
