    2inch lift with sls retained

    no but i would like the additional clearance under the chassis front and back, a couple of our lanes are... dicey, and also i would be running the occasional mild pay and play day. used to live in Manea and then huntingdon, not many hills there to climb over :D

    2inch lift with sls retained

    yeah i have no intentions of running 42inch stupid tyres with a stupid lift, but an increase slightly (265/75/R16) would be reasonable in my mind to achieve what i want, looks and functionality the shocks will likely be extended or replaced to accommodate the additional lift (spacer blocks...

    2inch lift with sls retained

    ok, i know i am probably going to get 3000 people saying "just buy springs" but currently the sls provides me with a nice ride and unless it goes wrong (which it invariably will after this post) i am not gonna fix something that aint broke.. my question is do i need extended brake lines, i...

    Disco 2 Handbrake drum rattle

    mine rattles.. the test will be to gently lift the handbrake when its rattling, to the point where it *just* bites, ifg the rattling stops then its the shoe issues

    Any advice for a first landy?

    my advice? buy a pajero :D again, get the nicest D2 you can afford, stick the suspension up at the back and crawl under with a screwdriver and give stuff a tap, check the engine bay on the back of the top of the arches, check for low coolant before starting it up, (mine has a weeping...

    Disco 2 Oil leak issue TD5.

    i was talking about an external air cooler, most diesels will have a water/coolant cooled cooler, my Peugeot has a small sandwich block on the filter

    my first (not so huge) project

    Before I go cutting and pasting, I would be interested to know what lead you bought, might save me some cutting and soldering. I found 1 but it was more expensive than the Bluetooth headunit i was looking to buy Edit: beat me to it. Ta.

    Disco 2 Oil leak issue TD5.

    Yeah I was referring to the autobox cooler. I don't think the engine has an oil cooler, but I can't speak for the V8, only the td5

    my first (not so huge) project

    Yeah the radio I linked above is quite conservative, in terms of flashy discoteque crap, I have it in the Peugeot and it sounds reasonable. It would look ok if I could have green, I am going to try with some fiddling of the plugs for the cd wire diest, see how far we get.. might be an...

    my first (not so huge) project

    in all honesty i am not sure what my setup is.. the head unit is as above, I want to avoid the FM feeder if i can, as i have no intention of using the CD player it seems sensible to bin it off and use the quality line in from that rather than going through a converter..

    my first (not so huge) project

    So.. in doing some reading around, and quite liking the OEM look of the factory stereo (have the basic model with the 6cd changer), i am opting to bin off the CD changer altogether. In my reading i have discovered that it is possible on mine (2003 D2) to ground out the signal wire and make it...

    Disco 2 Which Engine...

    four to look at then, AAP sensor (top of the airbox, on the left side as you look in) will be either 3 wire or 4 wire (later models are 4), MAF, MAP sensor and coolant temp sensor, i am sure the IAT is the one in the top of the intake manifold (take off the plastics, middle of the log...

    Disco 2 Which Engine...

    15ps came, in the UK, with water cooled egr and cat, so it's looking like that. Have a look at the v5, it will be indicative of the engine, The engine number of course starts 10,15 or 16.
