    Removing rear view mirror mount

    I've got the rear view mirror off, but I can't get the plastic cover to come off. Does it slide one way or is the whole thing glued to the window? Anyone have a photo of the base mount thats actually glued to the windshield?

    265/75R16 BFGoodrich KO2 tires w/ Method 701 wheels

    I recently picked up a parts truck with 5x BFG KO2 tires w/ Method 701 wheels. The tires have around 5,000 miles on them and are practically new (about 2 years old). The owner was sick of sinking money into the truck so I took it off his hands after he ran into an engine problem (turned out to...

    An (alleged) history of Safari Gard

    I ran into this document earlier in the week completely by chance. It's an account of Safari Gard's history according to Scott Yohman, the new owner of SG. Of course, much of this can be taken with a grain of salt, but i've heard variations of many of these tales over the years. I figured some...

    (MAKE AN OFFER) Safari Gard Bumper + Skid Plate for Discovery 1 & 2

    Selling a Safari Gard front bumper and skid plate for a Discovery 1 and 2. This is from the latest iteration of Safari Gard so the bumper is less than a year old. The skid is brand new, never installed. I had this on my D1 until I swapped to an RTE bar that I prefer more. Crazy, but SG has...

    D1 moulding replacement

    The plastic moulding along the sides of my D1 are in rough shape, with some peeling off. I can probably reuse a few of the pieces, but most need to be completely replaced. I've tried sourcing new ones from the usual vendors, but 3 times now they have come back saying they're on "indefinite back...

    Safety Devices "Highlander" Roof Rack for Discovery 1

    Pick up in Southern California (Orange County) This will fit a D2, but it'll be too short to cover the whole roof. Unit is in good condition, minor scrapes on the top. Looks like previous owner tried to pull their truck in the garage and it skidded across the top beam. Includes mounting...

    Who's in Southern California and wants an old RPI 4.6L?

    Discoweb has been a great asset for me so I figured i'd give back where I can. In this case, it's a hot tip for a sick engine you don't see very often. I found an RPI 4.6L in the Anaheim, CA PYP. It's sitting in an old ROXS Disco 1, which belonged to Tony V Sawyer (anyone know him? He was on...

    Bad Starter or What?

    Put a brand new Classic Car Performance British Starter (Denso) in the Disco 1 about 2 months ago. This thing just rips. A few weeks back, I noticed what sounded like grinding or scratching metal when occasionally starting the truck. Today, it sounded really bad so I turned it off and tried...

    D1 automatic hard shifts & lag

    Took the Rover on a 1,000 mile trip this past week and ran into some annoying transmission issues: The truck holds 2nd and 3rd gear for far too long before hard shifting into the next gear. I can usually trigger the shift by letting the throttle off. If I keep the throttle depressed, i've been...

    Diagnose that noise!

    I've shown this to a number of people and no one can quite figure out where the noise is coming from. It's loudest from the 0:40 - 0:50 mark in the video. It's most noticeable at slower speeds (5 - 20mph) I can make it occur easily when moving and turning side to side (as shown in the video)...

    A/C Condenser Fan Switch

    Im looking to put a switch in my D1 to run the condenser fans without the condenser running. I've read this can be done by putting a switch on the ground at 87 (black / brown wire) on the K109 relay. Does this sound correct? If done this way, does this mean I need to flip the AC on and hit the...

    Southdown 4x4 out of business

    Looks like Southdown just shut down this year. I wasn't a huge fan of their snorkel design, but it was as close to a Mantec as you can get. https://www.southdown4x4.co.uk/

    TrueTrac noises

    My 1998 D1 got some new gears and TrueTracs front and rear from GBR a couple weeks ago. From the get go, the TT in the front was noisy. Ratcheting sounds at low speeds when turning as well as random clunks and clanks. It's hard to tell if the rear is making much noise, but if it is I haven't...

    Classic British Starter on D1

    Question on the high performance Classic British Starter - it doesnt have a spade terminal like the OEM so what’s the proper way of hooking it up? I created a small cable that connects the spade to the small ring terminal. I suppose that’ll do? Sorry, electronics are not my specialty….

    Wisdom for differential install

    Next week im planning to install a pair of diffs from GBR in my Disco 1. They're set and ready to go, but having never thrown 3rd members on before, I wanted to see if there was anything I should consider or look out for while doing so. Any advice on this? What's the quickest, cleanest way to...

    D1 Window Woes

    Trying to figure out what is happening to my driver side front window without pulling the whole mechanism out. When rolling it up, it sounds like it pops off the track near the top. Otherwise, it rolls just fine. The window still sits nicely within the frame when fully rolled up, but it...

    Whatever happened to the ECR ROX Discotech truck?

    For the time, this was a pretty cool build. Does anyone know what happened to the vehicle or who owns it? The only way to access any information on the truck is through Archive.org (only way to access any of the long gone Rover pages). Fortunately, most of the photos and info has been...

    Fuel vapors and part numbers for D1

    My truck has recently begun to smell like fuel full time, both in front of the vehicle and in the rear. It's pretty clear in the rear that some of the hoses need to be replaced, but I can't figure out the front. Perhaps the EVAP cannister? For the rear, I can find most of the part numbers, but...
