Hey, howzit goin. I just picked up a 98 Discovery. I havnt even driven it yet. I look forward to cleaning it up, maybe add a few mods and see how it wheels. Any common problems I should look for on this truck? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks

Welcome to the forums. Just watch for leaks, especially coolant. You can blow a head gasket or drop a liner fast if it gets hot. Regularly inspect the driveshafts and make sure all of your fluids are changed and you should be good!.
