Default 1000

$1000. is a good deal, do you have an ultragauge? cleaning everything was the biggest pain in the but. I went through 5 cans of brake cleaner and 2 quarts of kerosene. I bought an eastwood 1/2 drive digital torgue/angle wrench for the job.(worked awesome), For any others doing their HG's, get a parts washer!! lol it will save you days of cleaning, I was sitting in my shop getting lightheaded from all the fumes lol

UPDATE: so Disco is back up and running In the end the total cost of course was not the 1000.00 as advertised. Ran into a couple of snags, however it was still worth it. Total cost for shop to do the job was 1400.00 taxes incl plus the heads I had done and parts. The LR should be gtg now....


I want to get out and drive it now Last little things to be done are, saggy headliner and we will be done (for now ).


Thank you for all the help, hope to see some of you on the road. Cheers!

1400 is still damn good especially with head work.
