    Hydraulic Winch

    Need advice. I have the opportunity to pick up a Mile Marker hydraulic winch (new) for my Disco 1. I don't know that much about these types of winches. I know that I can have the hoses made. Is anyone using this type of winch on their LR? Would appreciate any feedback. The winch is a 12k...

    ******Help No Fuel Pressure*******

    I installed a new fuel pump on my D1 today. Initial installation was unremarkable. I drove to the store to get differential lube to change my front pinion seal. After changing the seal my D1 would not start, no fuel pressure. I turn the key and it sounds like the pump is running, however...

    Disco II Wheels - $200.00

    I have a set of 16" Disco II (2000) wheels. I bought the wheels/tires together but I don't need the wheels because I have a D1. I am selling the wheels. I don't have lug nuts or center caps. The wheels are in good shape. They have some scratches and some areas where it looks as though the...

    Pinion Seal

    I need to replace the pinion seal in my front diff. However, for a '95 Disco 1 there are two possibilities according to Rovers North and Atlantic British. They said that it depends on the axel number. Rovers North said that I could find the axel number on the top of the housing next to the...

    Keyless entry

    I have inquired of this before but please excuse my re-visit to this question. I called the dealer today about an extra keyless entry fob that I found inside my D1 when I purchased it. The code on the inside (white sticker) is different than the one that actually works with the vehicle. He...

    Replacing the Rotoflex

    I am wanting to replace the rear drive shaft with a u-joint type unit. Anyone know of kits that are out there or is it just better to buy the replacement driveshafts that have the u-joints. My rotoflex is showing signs of wear and I know that it is just a matter of time before it goes.

    Death Rattle?

    Ok guys reaching out once again for some guidance. I have done some front end work to my Disco I (new steering box, steering stabilizer, pan hard rod bushings, and all four tie rod ends). I got the alignment done today after I put the tie rod ends on and it still has a death rattle when you...

    Tie Rod Ball Joint

    The next project on my Disco I is to replace the tie rod ball joints. When I checked with Atlantic British they have a set of 4 listed at 147.00. A check with DAP was 69.95 for the same set of four with one exception. DAP said that the ones they sell have a grease fitting unlike the factory...

    Steering wheel straight

    I posted recently about the seal on my steering box going out and leaking every ounce of power steering fluid. Rather than have that one fixed I found a new box from Motorcars Ltd in Tx. for $350.00 (cheapest one that I could find). While my rover was down for that I had a new front seal put...

    Steering Box

    I have been using Lucas power steering (stop leak) fluid for some time with acceptable results. However, today when I went outside I found that it has now come to an end. The seal where the steering shaft enters the gearbox has given way and the levy has broken. Can I get the seal replaced or...

    keyless entry

    I found an extra keyless entry in the glove box of my D1. The batteries in it were dead so I replaced them. It seems to be transmitting, however does not unlock or lock the doors like the other one that I have. Does it have to be reprogrammed after having the batteries replaced? Or if it is...

    Steering box leak - seal?

    Hey folks! Thanks for the help with my first question. I tracked a loose connection. Now I have the steering box leaking where the steering shaft enters the box. Is there a seal that I can replace or does the box have to come out and be rebuilt/replaced? How do I tell which steering box I...

    Battery Light

    Just purchased a 1995 Disco that has been well cared for. The one owner vehicle has every record of all the work done to it. The owner even kept the receipts for the Rover Christmas cards he bought. It has an oil leak that I have located, however, the battery light has come on. It has a new...
