Hi all just wanted To to say thanks up front for all the info I've found so far on here , as this is my only land rover I've ever owned and I gotta say I'm hooked ;)
1997 4.0 auto 245/70/16at .... gathering parts now for it ..here's my list . Sway bay bushings +links , shocks , 15/40 oil + Bosch filter , denso wires + platinum denso plugs , starter , bank 2 number 2 o2 senser , scanner and probably a few more things lol that I don't know about yet . Already fixed exhaust leak and track bar tie rod ends + steering dampener and rubber drive shaft coupler . |
Welcome. Dive right in!

Well add a skid plate gas tank strap thingy to the parts ..lol about a 1/4" on one side and 2" on other is holding it up , all the rest is rusted away , plus a ratchet strap now and Fri I'll have a new rovers north skid plate , glade I decided to change diff fluid Sunday or my tank probably would of fell out as I drive Daily to work

And so it begins...
But, seriously...welcome aboard! Sounds like you're jumping right in without testing the water, which is fine. Good luck, and post up some pictures. Brian. |
