    What are the strobes for Sam, just for playing or do they serve another purpose?

    Did you transfer a cockpit from a 747 into your disco same?! Looking at all those switches has made me feel all angry and claustrophobic and the need to run to the nearest big field and lie in it naked!! :p

    New Steering Box?

    it was cold, dark and I was angry! I kept grinding a bit then checking but couldn't tell i was in enough until I was in too deep! The 90 is very rarely used on the road but if it seems it will be an issue I'd rather just change it.

    New Steering Box?

    Yesterday I was trying to replace the steering box drop arm on my dads 90. The only way I could get it off was to cut it as it wouldn't budge. Working in poor light and steamed up googles I cut in too deep and have taken some notches out of the spline which hangs out the bottom of the box. I'd...

    Disco wheels on a fender

    It's steel wheels coming off and steels disco wheels going on. I tried it with the same nuts that came off but still had no thread coming through the nut :confused:

    Disco wheels on a fender

    I'm scrapping my disco an I've offered my dad my mud tyres as he has AT. I tried one wheel on there but there was no thread showing through the nut, almost like the nut was only half on. Is this ok or should he get these tires put on his rims?

    Help me with my difficult choice!!

    I like the thought of BFG AT tires but like the price tag of Generals! But I have no experience of either! As the disco will be my daily driver I'd rather avoid drowning it if possible! Do all disco's let water in? Just curious as the vids I've seen of people in water at Billing is over their...

    Help me with my difficult choice!!

    Just been speaking to a neighbour today who's had more than a few landy's and he said he had some general ATII's that he couldn't wear out! He swears by them. He's got BFG on his 110 now but only because he said he got a stupidly good deal. Otherwise he would have bought generals. As far as a...

    ;) What tires do you use, AT or roads? And would you fit a snorkel just for floods? I'm not purposely going to be driving into water holes as some do!

    Your very right there, only 1 of them has a decent car, the rest have sheds. And me being Mr Prepared for every eventuality a disco is great.
