Default A hello from just above the 49th

Hey guys and gals

Well we have been a Rover Lover for a long time but always ended with Jeep's. So after my brother purchased a 2005 LR3, and the wife and I borrowed it for a summer trip it was time for our own. We decided on a 1999 D2 which we got for $1500 with engine trouble (milkshake oil) which saved us heeps of cash and I being a mechanic saving even more on engine rebuilding.
Well enough on the hello and back to work.

Chris and Ali

You should also onsider rebuild / replace front prop shaft, the sealed joints dry out and snap, smacking transmission, and sometimes the drive shaft wins.
