    hi lift mount options

    I was thinking something like this... Drilled through the bumper and mounted horizontal like. I have seen the spare tire mount, but cannot get my hands on one. Safari Gard doesnt have them anymore...discontinued

    hi lift mount options

    I have been looking at different options to mount my jack. I dont have a roof rack and want to keep it off the ARB untill I get more heavy duty springs to compensate for the winch and the jack. Has anyone mounted their hi lift on the rear bumper? It is steel and should hold the weight right?

    crankshaft pulley removal

    Joey You are talking about a harmonic balance puller right? I tried that route but there are no pre drilled holes in the pulley to connect it to. It is just one solid pulley. should I try the breaker bar way? Put a breaker bar against the frame connected to the pulley bolt and bump the...

    crankshaft pulley removal

    So I have been thinkin. Would it work if I put the truck in gear? I assume that would keep everything ingaged and essentally keep the crankshaft from turning.

    crankshaft pulley removal

    Amidst working on getting off the timing chain cover I am stuck on the crankshaft pulley. I have the RAVE cd and have found the pulley section. It says to have someone hold a striaght edge something or other (perhaps a screwdriver) in somewhere to keep the crankshaft from turning when...

    can u install a lift kit with airbags and stuck oil filler cap

    Tandisco I have a 97 D1 and the same thing happens to me with the oil cap. No matter what I try the whole cap and tube comes off. I just be extra careful pouring the oil. Nothing has ever leaked or anything. I dont think twice about it now. Nothing to worry about in my opinion.

    coolant leakage D1

    Started working on it the other day. I found that getting off the radiator fan is a pain without the correct tool. I was getting pretty heated over this stupid thing, even though anyone with experience with this would laugh. Does anyone know this tool and what size it is?

    coolant leakage D1

    coolant leakage D1

    Thanks Joey I checked the heater hoses, they are fine. It turns out to be the water pump gasket right up against the engine block. Pour water in the overflow tank and it runs right back out! I was quoted 500 - 600 for the job from a local LR shop. Timing gasket If I do it I...

    coolant leakage D1

    After driving for a few hours I herd a gurgerling sound comming from the tranny area. Temp got really high, pulled over and noticed the truck peeing from the back area of the engine all over the steering damper and stuff. Had it towed home. Blah Could this be the rear seal perhaps? All...

    Disco on 20" rims

    I'm not feeling it (the rims). Saw the pic on your myspace. Dont you want to be able to use your truck for something? I guess you could always use the low 4 wheel for going over speed bumps. Just a thought. I dont mean to rag on ya. Just put some big tires on with a lift...

    Discovery 97 Lift Kit Help

    Heres my 2 cents... I would go for the suspension lift, alot more practical. Sometimes just a body lift could make your rig look like a wet dog. Plus there is the seperation between the body and frame which looks abit wierd. :)
