I know the motor is basically the same throughout its 40 whatever year existence, but are the studs specs the same for the various generations/iterations? Over the phone, ARP didn't think so. -P edit: To make clear, upon asking ARP for studs for my '02 4.0 Liter, they said they didn't have...

Reviving this thread to note that ARP will make head studs for the 4.0 L Discovery 2. I haven't seen anyone else mention ARP in the head gasket threads and thought offering this info might give owners an alternate supplier. We sent ARP the specs, they happily made the studs and 2nd day aired...

Yeah, he had a comment. He said he'd never seen anything like it (the torn up filter). I quickly agreed. Maybe my point was too subtle, because he seemed to think I took the filter off that way for a good time. He kept showing me the tools his garage uses to remove stuck oil filters (the...

I took several photos of the mess, the tools, and the filter. I'm out of town and the cameras at home. I'll be back Wednesday night and will post then or PM me and I'll email them to you. Making a plaque out of the pieces might be a good idea, until the MIG hits the oil residue... maybe I...

Down Under- Thanks for the sympathy. I'm considering whether or not to keep the bag full of oil filter pieces in my garage for laughs. After a few beers, I'm sure it'll be funny. -P

Hey, I don't come on the site too often, but when I have, you all have been really helpful getting my Disco II back on the road. Maybe my recent professional service experience can help someone else make an informed decision as to where to take their Disco in the NW. My wife took our Discovery...

My wife backed over a pole in a parking lot:nopity:. I need a new rear bumper and passenger side rear bumper light (complete) to fix this. If you have this stuff lying around in great shape and would like to sell, email me at phoward@uoregon.edu. I believe 99 - 04 bumpers are exactly the...

Emailed. Thanks. -P

Update: I received payment for the 18" wheels from Tidewater yesterday (5/7). Ended up getting the centercaps off ebay for $15. -P

Iran uses those and mountain dew to enrich their uranium. Extreme. -p

Kennith: Thank you for the advice. I just cc'd you the e-mail from John from February 20 stating that he'd buy the wheels for $300. We agreed on check rather than paypal (as stated in the msg.) because I've had bad times with Paypal in the past. Regards, -p Edit- I overlooked part of your...

i think its a Senator from NY. that's where i got the tuft of hair i was claiming was saquatch's. if anyone can get my $300 from Tidewater, it's all yours and i'll send it overnight. -p

The applicable preposition isn't "in," it's "to." What is happening 'to' Oregon? And frankly, I can't explain it any more explicitly than the personals from the Eugene Weekly (Eugene's entertainment paper, see link below). Whatever is happening 'to' Oregon, Oregon certainly didn't ask for...

i can do you one better- actually got a pic of the one who bummed a cig off me while i was contributing to the delinquency of the guy in the chicken suit. i believe you can find shots of the other 5 at REI.com. -P BTW- hippies turn a blind eye to British SUV's until you get 4.11 gears...
