Speakers shortage
I've got a 99 Disco II with the Harmon Kardon stereo package. the truck is getting up there and of course some things will go. i replaced the front door tweeters a few weeks back, and when i was testing the others i realized that the rear door tweeters were out. picked up two "new" ones, and... -

Head gaskets... make or break time
i'm not sure Joey, unfortunately Driveways, and garages are one of those luxuries only dreamt about, and not so common in manhattan. though, i have done a good amount of work myself in an upstate residence, there is a point when you've got to get the damn thing fixed, and get it back on the... -

sitting on the bump stops
i've found them a little cheaper, air shocks a while back i had some trouble with the airshocks, and replacing them every 2-4 years in the northeast can get costly. they say these things can drive from the north poll to the south, but the damn cold can blow the shocks! i found a cheaper and... -

Head gaskets... make or break time
I've had my "99 Disco II for about 4-5 years. it was beautiful, and still is, but i need to know if i should get over it. (and the 1st thing i did was replace the xenons and get a basket, so no jokes) I don't drive it too often, no commute, mainly just drive around looking for parking in NYC... -

ABS/TC/Hill Decent
ive had the three amigos for about a month or two. my guys told me that i needed to replace the hub assembly. but said that i could wait a little while since it was sumer and the need for ABS wasn't so high. now, that was as i was pulling away from dropping $$$ on cables and plugs, and a gasket... -

Strange vibrations at 60 mph
local mech. giving me the ride i brought the truck in to my local guy, who hasn't really been the most knowledgeable and honest mech. i've known but for things that i've researched i can usually keep him in line. well, this is the guy that told me that he was 90% sure that i needed new tires... -

Strange vibrations at 60 mph
i've got some crappy tires on the truck at the moment, however they aren't wearing particularly bad. the truck, a '99, had the original rims then were upgraded to the hurricane rims which came with Falcons. i was waiting until i needed to replace them to grade up. i drove the truck from FL to... -

Sunroof Leak caused motor failure
i haven't replace the motor yet actually just got some time off to take a look at the car again. i do wonder if anyone can help me understand: the front sunroof does not open, however the rear does with no problems. the front does make a slight clicking sound as if the ECU may be relaying the... -

Strange vibrations at 60 mph
i still haven't figured out the noise, it's driving me crazy. i had asked the mechanic who did my rotors and balance to check them. he said that he had, and no trouble, but this is also the guy who couldn't hear the noise in the first place. he also forgot to blow out my sunroof drains... -

Strange vibrations at 60 mph
I've got a 99 disco II. i had a thread a while back that asked about engine resistance. well i misdiagnosed the trouble. i cleaned the MAF sensor, balanced the tires and re did all four rotors. i brought the truck to a mechanic that refused to understand what i was explaining: when i get... -

Sunroof Leak caused motor failure
I've had some leaking in my Disco II from my front sunroof. i had blown out the drains several months ago, and fairly soon after, more water. well, several days ago, after a good rain, i saw some wettness on the roof lining. then that evening, my sunroof stopped working. now it is only my... -

engine resistance
