Default What else needs to be done

I asked this question a week ago and no one had any recomendations I dont know if it was because it was a stupid question or what but I am going to ask again.

I did the disco mikes 60k on my car already and I wanted to know if there was anything else I should do as far as cleaning, adjusting, tightening, greasing, Etc.....

I am in the process of also getting a new hose kit, timing chain kit, tensor & idler pully kit installed , and getting my throttle body cleaned. Is there anything else that I could clean, adjust, tightenin, or grease to my 04 Disco II .

Nope.
Dont bother with the timing set either, if ti aint broke dont fix it.
The timing sets on these engines will last well into the 200k range.
If you already have the engine apart then you can change the timing set because it is cheap, but unless you are already in there...forget it.

you can pop off the land rover emblem on the gate and spray some silicon lube in there to make sure that won't give you any problems. only thing i could think of. lol

Rebuild your front driveshaft with greaseable u-joints? And grease your rear driveshaft slip shaft and u-joints.
