Mr Orange

You lot are nuts!

the village next to me has 3 mk1 disco's parked outside the garage, green, white and blue ones. all kitted out for off roading. the were k and l regs but 2 now have Q plates

my uncle has a 200tdi disco on an l reg. wonder if he'll sell it cheap
Was at work the other day and had made up a full list of what to do and how it would look if i got it

going for a disco3 as its a good mix for on road and off road driving.
then turn it into a G4 replica

i was devastated about the mirror..only fitted it on friday

lawnsy..lightbars inc the lights are only £79 from paddock..i took mine off as i didnt like the light shining on the dash...paddock also sell safari snorkels which are the daddy..or you can make your own from some drainpipe and turbo hose

Alan s1

Well see my BIG list on page 3 for most of the prices of prts ect But the light bars are around £40 +++ if you want lights ect But that does look very HOME MADE

Shame this time last yr i was getting lots of parts for 90/110 Disco's ect all new and around half price

Alan s1

Alan s1

I was on about the light bar Well i think they look smart even if they dont work every well lol O and i can then blind twats that leave there full beam on

Seems alot of you end up on your side

Will have to see if my m8 wants a Long wkend up there playing in the summer if theres places to stay (cheap ish lol)

Kevin Sharp

iTrader: (3)

stack dash..yeah right!

alan...i know V8s are thirsty but using a zook to tow it around to save fuel is ridiculous

Alan s1

Yes but it was running so i had brakes and steering (well easy steering lol) Also He got a 2.9 V6 in that Suzuki So iver way it was'nt saving fuel

ossie cossie

i used to love getting down and dirty when i lived in south wales before i emigrated to OZ, still have a 4X4 over here a 2001 nissan patrol but don,t get much time now with work and the like. here are a couple of pics of an older type patrol (road legal i may add) slightly EXTREME. The only drama here is that its hard to get them dirty (lots of sand in WA) but there are places you can go and get some mud.





the second pic is probably at a special stage sort of like a motokahna.

Dont know if people are interested but there is a 4x4 race meeting at Manby over the upcoming bank holiday weekend (24th - 26th)

Bit different to the usual pay and play or green laning if you just want to spectate.

Oranoco

Now that's offroading

The closest most 4x4's get to going offroad is when they are parked on the footpath while the dippy bint driver runs into the dry cleaners.

XRdodgybird

Just bought a Mitsubishi Pajero.... don't think I will be getting up to anything quite as daring as some of these pics, but am looking forward to getting out and about and having a bit of fun!

James

following on from this thread, and a the others courtesy of kevin sharp over the last few weeks i've just bought this.........





i'll try and get some better pics over the weekend, it's a 3.9 auto with 100k miles. runs and drives almost like a dream, few minor niggles with the autobox but think i've traced these, can't get the diff lock lever to move though, but reading here they sieze? had a look underneath on a rampand the chassis is sound! done about 100 miles in it and love it!

it's got yellow shocks with blue springs - no idea what they are - new discs, pads and all front end steering joints with change from £1k i'm well impressed!

James

actually, anyone know any good discovery forums?

rossco22

Just up loading some pics of my disco, bought it standard about 2 months ago...

rossco22

Couple of quick snaps of the discos 1st outing






After that i decided bigger wheels an tyres were required
got these insa turbo special track tyres on black steel rims brand new for £400 not bad at all considering the amonut of rubber you get !!!




still managed to get it stuck though lol




Found the old disco to be fairly poor on fuel specially off road so got me self a small consinment of crisp & dry oil to keep costs down lol




Few pics taken from a winch challenge event we went to ...

James

tore my nsf disco wing off today lol so ebay has sorted me another in the right colour 2 lol anyone use cranked arms on the rear? mine keep fuckin the triangle bushes up think ill put the standard arms back on least they lasted a few months with them on anyone else have problems?
tim

Alan s1

I can tell you where your diff lock leaver is seized as mine was
Ok take out the centre console (you have to pull the pin on the handbrake to get it out ect)

Ones thats all out the way remove the pins that hold the linlage bars on that drop down to the TB then unbolt the 4 bolts (i think) and that will let you take the difflock leaver out,

Ones out you have to take it apart will take abit of betting but ones its apart clean it all up and pack it with grease put it togher the bar should slide over and pop out the end nice and easy

Whot other problems with the auto box you got and please dont say a clunk when you into Rev if so get the box changed before it loses all gears

Thats whot happened to mine had to get new oil cooler pipes the lot then broke the bloody oil pump in the box when i fitted it back in :$

So today i went and dropped it off to have it fixxed im not doing the bloody thing again

Alan s1

Ross you got the lift kit on yours now then ?

Alan s1

Heres how mine was this morning gearbox still broken

But was on my was to drop it off should have it back next wk all done then i have to put it back togher lol




Later i got my tyres fitted to some Capri wheels there 195/50/13s nd 8ply just whot i need if the disco is going to be towed around on it tho



Not s bling tho lol

JC_Is_God_Not

JC_Is_God_Not

Wish i have'nt sold my old 110
My brother as painted it ect now o and taken my V8 out and put a 300tdi in it

rossco22

Yer got a 2" lift on mine now makes it loads better but still get abit of rub on full lock or in deep holes when the suspensions fully compressed ... Its going up for sale in a couple of weeks to make way for a westfield that ive got my eye on...

JC_Is_God_Not

thats a nice 110 mate.

neva swap a v8 4 a diesel thats juz wrong.

JJ

Alan s1

Do you every keep a motor or bike long

Alan s1

It is now its all painted up

Alan s1

JAMES

heres some pics of the diff lock and high and low lever

Ok 1st remove the 2 rods that go on the end here


Then undo the 4 main bolts (the top 4 holes are for the rubber gater remove them to but last if you like)


Then remove the end bit will take alot of doing as thats were there seized up (end not in this bit i think there counter sunk screws in the end plate)


Use alot of WD40 ect and abit of sand paper to clean up the shaft and then put it back togther and pack it full of greese then fit the gater back over

TIFF

Fuck spending thousands on your Heavy Land Rovers that keep getting stuck.........

What you need is £500 worth of Jap 1.3 POWER

My little SJ can go places that no landy will go.........and for the money it is SO SO much fun

Love the spec'd up landys though....im only messing. But i just wanted to have a go and i am, but proper cheap......
















My Lad cleaning it for £3
