So this is a new and odd one for me. All of the sudden if I am at a very slow speed, like when parking, or stopped, the steering when turning right locks up half way. It turns left fine, it's not hitting anything as far as I can tell, the power steering pump whines a bit like it's at full lock...

'96 Discovery I know there have been some other posters with similar problems. I'm in a pretty big bind being away from home, and thought if I could get any extra help, it would be very appreciated. I'm working down in Albuquerque. The other day drove to work just fine, and when I went to go...

I'm looking for a few items for my '96 Discovery Carpet - tan int. I'm looking for some front carpet in good condition. Mines pretty trashed, and I'd like to replace it with something not all ripped up and stained, but at a decent price if I can find it. Rear Sunroof - Rear sunroof copper...

I'm throwing a rebuilt transmission in my '96 Discovery and having a slight problem. I got the transfer case splines to line up, and slide most of the way on, but when I get down to about 3/4 of an inch to mate up the surfaces, I can't for the life of me get the transfer case to go on any more...

'96 Discovery, Died on me the other night. I have no power to the fuel pump. I've checked the fuse, which is good. I'm guessing the problem is either a relay or a short in the wiring. Can anyone tell me where the relay is? Is there anything else I should check? Thanks, Ryan

Broke down on the way to work last night. Pulled up to a gas station, still had about 1/2 a tank, but as I pulled up to the pump it died, which was very weird. I fuelled it up, and it wouldn't start again. The fuel tank registers empty, even though it's full, which leads me to beleive it may...

As if the Disco's weren't challanging enough, I decided I needed a new project. I'm the proud new owner of a 1964 mark 1 mini cooper. It needs a lot of work, but the body is remarkable rust free, and I'm friends with the guy who imported it. I haven't gotten down to LA to pick it up yet, but am...

So last March I was getting code P1179, Replaced the O2 sensors, and the cats, they were rattling, and it went away. Now I'm getting the code again. After reading some threads I tried replacing the Mass Air Flow Sensor and the air filter, but that didn't fix it. Any other ideas? If it is an O2...

So the SLC 5 mile pass thread got me thinkin. Everyone gets stuck some time or another, it's just a part of 4-wheeling. Thought it would be fun to post up some of our best stuck picks. I can't remember having seen this on here, so if it's been done, I apologize. Here's mine, I've posted it once...

Hey guys, Looks like I'm heading to the Dunes next weekend with the '96 discovery. Haven't been wheelin in the sand since my stock jeep wrangler. Did fine then, but it was lightweight, good stance, and tons of torque. I'm just wondering what I can expect of the Discovery. How do they fare in...

I haul a lot of equipment in the disco. The rear carpet was getting pretty bad. I wanted one of those rubber matts to fit back there, but they only cover up to the seats, when the seats are down. Since I usually have the seats tucked up to get in more gear, this would only cover half the floor...

Went to flush my radiator tonight, and as I went to remove the radiator cap/plug, the head snapped right off, with very little pressure. I've ordered a new brass plug from EE, but that won't be here for a few days, and I kind of need my Disco this weekend. Of corse the dealerships part dept...

I can't seem to keep my alternater working. I've had it rebuilt twice in the two years I've ownde it, and it's going out again. I saw this alternater on www.roverconnection.com , AMR4247A Discovery I (96~99) $295 Brand NEW High Output 120 amp (no core charge required) I'm wondering if anyone has...

My brother went joy riding in my '96 disco the other day. We reported it stolen to the police, he's stolen the vehicles many times before, and is strung out on heroin, and they did an amazing job of finding it within a day. Unfortunately the rear seat window was broken out (the second window...

My guess is Santa's sleigh broke down and he needed something he knew would get him back to the North Pole. All joking asside, I woke up this morning to find my '96 discovery gone. My guess is it was my druggie brother or one of his friends, who I know have broken into the garage before and...

Finally putting in a shop, been thinking about going with one of these... http://www.miracletruss.com/welcome.html I was wondering if anyone's workied with them before, or had any general advice before I undertake the project. Thanks, Ryan

In the beginning of the summer of 04 we purchased a rebuilt transfer case from Car Cannibal for my mom's '96 discovery. Everything went well. We recieved the transfer case, installed it, runs great. Called teh shipping company prearranged by them to pick up the core and take it to them. It took...

Well, the time has come. Buisness is doing too well, and it's time to trade the rover in for a truck. I have some pretty big trailers, and am looking for a diesel dually. The only problem is the ones I've found in my price range have 150,000 + miles on them. If I can sell the rover soon, I can...

I was comming home from work down Provo Canyon last night at about 6:30 in the '96 disco. Things were good, and had over a half a tank of gas, when suddenly the engine lost power and died. I managed to get it off the road and to a stop. I tried starting it a couple of times when I noticed the...
