I'll have to remove it and package it up to get a shipping quote. shipping from 89128.
rest of the truck is also for sale :(
Yesterday was re-bedding my brakes when POP! lost all brake pressure.
braided stainless teflon-core brake line blew out.
I'm really happy I was on a flat deserted road, not the steep cliffy mountain road I almost drove earlier in the day.
Will be replacing with rubber, at least those will...
has anyone attached anything to the PTO on the transfer case?
Is the PTO some vestigial leftover like our appendix, or is actually usable for something?
For some reason, I have a feeling all the "stuff" that can be connected is over in the UK rusting in a barn.
I've fixed the problem, but thought I'd post what happened in case someone else has similar symptoms.
1995 D1 with distributor
First signs were hard starting when "cold" (temperature under 50F). I could remedy this somewhat by advancing the timing 30+ degrees (by remedy, I mean I could start...
the skid recovery system in my audi is awesome.
does anyone know if wabco makes a plug-n-play stability control system I could drop into my '95?
I'd like to use wabco to avoid any diminished abs functionality that another vendor might introduce.
In a pinch, I guess Lucas could be considered...

What's the current going price for a '95 (cloth interior no sunroof), high miles, tru-trac & GBR shaft up front?
Passed smog 2 days ago and is driveable. All electricals work as designed :( .
Don't want to part it out. I could drive it from Las Vegas to socal or anywhere north along the I-15...
I have a '95 disco, and sometime I'd like to install a 4.6.
However, the 2003s are getting so cheap that it seems cheaper to buy a 2003 (with 200K fewer miles than my '95), rather than buying a used 4.6 (and probably used tranny and xfer case).
I realize the 2004s come with the diff lock; I...
I'm thinking of doing some major R&R on my '95 with 268K miles on clock.
Engine: I'd like to go either 4.6 (or diesel???)
rebuild tranny
new xfer case
Everything still runs fine, leaks-aplenty though. I'd be willing to drive it to a shop pretty much anywhere in the country (lower mainland...
Are you tired of having oil splash all over during an oil change? Covering your exhaust with a coating of (synthetic?) oil?
Well, 10 years ago (or so) with a few oil changes under my belt with my (new-to-me) Disco, I decided I'd had enough. But I knew I had to save cash for repairs, so I...
My driver's side seat has finally given up. I have a '95 with manual cloth seats. Will any D1 seats bolt in? And has anyone installed aftermarket (Recaro?) seats in their D1?
My '95 is feeling its age... looking for opinions on whether to rebuild the '95's drivetrain (tranny/xfercase/engine all with 265K miles), or buy a 2004 HSE?
My "offroading" is limited to forest service/BLM/Baja roads... basically the '95's been a road trip machine. I don't drive to work, so...
Does anyone have any tips on where to look for high-mileage (100K-miles+++) cars/trucks? I know craigslist might be an option. I've looked on a number of online classifieds, but not much in the 6-digit mile range.
I'm looking to buy cheap, replace the bits that need replacing, and drive into...
I'm looking for ideas for the best highway suspension setup. I've come to the sad conclusion that in the 210,000+ plus miles I've put on my '95, very few are off-pavement, and those that are off-pavement are pretty much exclusively forest service roads or dirt "4x4" roads in the national parks...
I've been having intermittent (at times constant) problems with my ABS for quite a few years. Every time I thought I had everything sorted out, a few days later, I would be reminded that the ABS system still wasn't happy. You know, the system engaging when coming to a stop (and not stopping...
Sorry, not really tech but...
A while back I saw a picture here of a guy welding the gas tank of his (pickup?). It was parked on the side of the road, propped up at a 40 degree angle (or so) with some 2x4s...
I've tried searching for the thing... does anyone remember which thread it appeared...
This is how I recently did a 99% exchange of my old grotty, brown tranny fluid on my '95 D1 for an equal amout of new clean, pink delightful fluid:
Parts/Supplies:
3 gallons tranny fluid
funnel that fits tranny dipstick hole
16oz/500ml PET water bottle
Gallon milk jug (or similar)
2 feet (or...
I recently replaced the valley gasket and valve cover gaskets on my '95 with 223,000 miles on it. I have seen the photos of gunk-filled heads on the forum, and was prepared for the worst.
However, there was no sludge at all in heads. I removed the rocker shafts, and both of the rear oil holes...
I'm looking for some new tools. I thought about buying an electric impact wrench (corded or cordless) for removing stubborn nuts/bolts.
Any suggestions? The positive comments I've read on other web sites all seem to be from people using them to remove/attach lug nuts... and almost all the...
