Thank you, good idea. The factory crossbars have quite a bow to them, so the unistrut is a great idea. Also, any aftermarket legs to fit the factory rails are hard to find. I appreciate the help.
Can you tell me how you attached that ARB rack? I have an 06 Heim limited and I am so confused about how to attach these new platform racks. Did you find feet that fit the factory rail channel or did you attached directly to the crossbars?
Also, what size rack is that? It looks great and I would...
With all the manufacturing delays it took me two full years to finally get this. I picked it up on Monday in Tampa. I put my Overlander XL tent on it yesterday and drove it around the ranch quite a bit today with my jeep Cherokee XJ. That’s not my primary tow vehicle, I have a hemi Commander...
I like seeing all the enthusiasm for these discos here. Great trucks! I'm a bit sad as I have just developed some cylinder liner slap in cylinder #2. I plan to drive it till it dies and then replace the motor, but still not something I wanted to see! Otherwise I really enjoy servicing and...
I have the opportunity to pick one of these up. Asking price is about 5 grand. I know this is a chinese-made trailer but I've never heard of it. From what I gather it's fairly popular in Asia? Anybody ever seen one or heard of one? Thanks for any help.
This would be an awesome swap and I would love to see it. As I am not from California I don't care about their silly emissions standards. I am hoping the more folks buy this motor the lower the prices will go because it would be an excellent fit for a disco 2, imho. I do not know anyone...
Nice looking disco! I too have recently acquired at disco 2 (2003) which I am hard at work on already. I have a long list of things to do to it, but I am currently investigating an engine tap. Hoping for valve line issues as opposed to cylinder problems.
Well, I picked up the Rover today. I got it for 1300 bucks. I've already replaced the upper radiator hose and done a full coolant flush. I didn't put a new thermostat in because I was not able to get one in time. Tomorrow I have to drive at 70 miles to my Ranch where it will live.
Everything...
I have a guy selling a 2003 Discovery SE with 174000 miles on it. The motor runs great and the transmission feels really nice. $1,350 out the door. It's just the SE model, so it doesn't have the seven seats I wanted. I'm thinking this is a pretty good deal. Any of you Discovery guys I have any...
That Xj is the hotness! My Florida rig is a 2001 Xj sport. I have a three and a half inch lift on it and I've done a bunch of modifications. My favorite is the trailhead off road cowl air intake. I have a 7-pin trailer connector put on for my Smittybilt Scout trailer when it decides to show...
Although my sample size is small I have never communicated with an actual owner who was not happy with the trailer. I cannot speak for the failures, I have never presonally heard of one. It's hard to beat getting the trailer kit for 5k and slapping on some 5 x 5.5 wheels and tires from...
Thank you very much for the information! I've been doing a lot of research over a long period of time and haven't found a better value for the money than the Smittybilt. I had not heard of this particular company, though, and I will contact them tomorrow. The website does not seem to have a lot...
I've been trying to order one of these trailer kits since July. I don't know if anybody else has noticed that it's impossible to nail any vendor down on a delivery date. I just had a conversation today with a manufacturer and the new date for delivery is first quarter of next year. That's...
I head that way every year for Thanksgiving. I was looking myself when I came upon the "Great Smokey Mountain Jeep Invasion" website. It recently took place but they do mention a couple of trail rides and you may find some good info there. If you do, please share!
