    Disco 1 Oil leak

    Not too bad to be honest, i followed the instructions in the Haynes manual. Take your time and you will be ok. You will need a torque wrench to set the tension on the belt I used one like this which is recommended Also some locking pins for the flywheel and injector pump. Lastly a torque...

    Disco 2, can it be kept reliable off road?

    Could be coming in where the windscreen panel hinge where the bolts go through. I did away with the vents and welded in a full length blank panel, top of bulkhead was rotted out most of the way. You can get repair panels for the top corners, if you or know someone that can weld

    Disco 2, can it be kept reliable off road?

    I sold my 1986 90 for about that, same spec as yours with a manual gearbox though. Sounds like standard issues you have, you will probably find you can open the drivers door with any key (could with mine). Heater fan? What's that haha. I took mine out, hardly worked and bit pointless having it...

    Looks nice, at least you won't have to worry about a rusty chassis

    The Little Discovery That Could (financially ruin me)

    Nice work, you will get there one day (that's what I tell myself anyway lol). For future reference (too late now I know) I use jgs 4x4 to get the service kit, costs around £80 for everything,. Quick delivery aswell

    Disco 1 Oil leak

    That's a shame. If you can do the timing belt yourself then go for it, the seal can be replaced once the belt has been removed.

    Disco 1 Oil leak

    I've never replaced one before, closest thing I've done is replaced the timing belt. Depending if your handy with the tools (you will need more than just basic tools) it's not too bad, just time consuming as the timing cover will need to come off so anything in the way of that will need...

    Disco 1 Oil leak

    Looks to me like it's coming out of the timing cover hole, could possibly be the front crank seal. Put a wading plug in and forget about it (I'm joking, don't do that :D)

    I know it's a crap picture, but I will take some better ones once it's been cleared off

    Disco 2 drive binding knocking

    Funny thing is my disco has the label on the dash in front of the gearstick, so I thought it had it when I took it for a test drive before purchasing, then learnt that not all had them fitted.

    Disco 2, can it be kept reliable off road?

    I was going to suggest get a series but you wanted comfort, haha. The ecu would need relocating with an extended loom, they don't like getting wet. I'm not sure but I think all the sensors are fine with getting wet. The wheelhub sensors can pack up anytime, don't need to go off road for that to...

    Disco 2 drive binding knocking

    Maybe could see the linkage, I can't say as mine isn't fitted with it. I would have thought if it is fitted, the transfer box gearstick would have diff lock written on it Mine just has L - N - H

    Disco 2 drive binding knocking

    Spigot thing where the red arrow is pointing at is the cdl, if yours doesn't have this then you don't have cdl. Blue arrow is pointing to the warning light switch. It's located near the front propshaft on top of box

    Disco 2 drive binding knocking

    Agree with this, I would first check if it has cdl, previous owners could have fitted/bodged a transfer box in and not connected the warning light. My facelift d2 isn't fitted with cdl in the box. Get underneath the vehicle and have a look on the transfer box. I will look and post a picture for...
