Proud Rhino Discovery 5
#2
I was like a kid in a candy store today as we stripped the front off the Discovery 5. It may have just been my excitement but everything came apart fairly straight forward an easy. Our cardboard template was put into place with only some minor tweeking needed. Next up will be to test fit a metal version.

Tires are on
We have been full steam at the shop! I have been trying to squeeze in the D5 but can’t get the room. If anyone that knows Rovers has some free time let me know. We have the lift kit and winch tray V3 ready to play with still but at least we got the tires on today. I do have some concerns about rubbing when the suspension is on the bumps. In mid turn the inner fender well lining may touch but I can not be sure until the bumpers back on. Until tomorrow all I have are these parking lot pics.

Out sick
Sorry gals and guys for the absence in posts. We had a key team member go out on medical leave and I have been doing double duties. The good news is we have not stopped the work. The winch tray is on version 6 and we should have the final pre production in the next few days. The trays fitment is so sexy. It fits perfectly. Ill get some better in-depth photos when we get the final one done and all the components are bolted back in place. In other Discovery 5 news I should have my hands on a few sets of pre production lift rods next week. If you want to try a set let me know. Until then I have some pictures of the current progress to hold you over.

There is more room then the picture shows. I feel a new rope can be done with the bumper cover on.

Let there be light,,,, well a little light
Now that January is mid way though we can turn off the Holliday E brake and get back to the fun. I should have the final version of the hidden no cut winch tray in hand any day. I am so excited for it to arrive and get some good phots of this fantastic part to share with everyone. I do have some good news on another product. We were able to settle on a design for the no cutting light tabs. I only have a few crappy pic but I will share them.
If anyone has any suggestions were to put the auxiliary light switch I’m all ears.
Until next time....
