    So finally had a chance to get the heater core out and changed in a 2000 Disco 2. Yes, its not for everyone, but if you are systematic and can fellow instructions as per Rave and not get frustrated then you can do it. First off, I do have to agree with several comments earlier by others that...

    Heater Matrix Removal on 2000 D2

    Went for a little hop out in the woods and it looks like the heater matrix finally gave up. I did notice I was loosing some coolant lately but couldn't find where. I guess I did find it, under the passenger side carpet. Is it possible to get the matrix out without removing the dash? or does the...

    Body Lift for Disco

    There are many advantages and disadvatages of a body lift. I guess one of the advatages would be the increase in space for bigger tires (yes 32's not 40's) without altering the drivetrain geometry. A disadvatage would be the slight complexity and stigma attached to them. Yes, I do agree...

    SLS airback bracket mod

    Had a quick look underneath there and I'm curios how some people have modified it took give them an extra inch in height. By the looks of it a simple bracket will do it. As for the airbag, will it be at a disadvantageous position. Or will it be ok as Landrover setup the extented height at...

    Changed both air bags on Disco II

    Just recently changed both air bags on my Disco as they were leaking from age. I could not believe how easy it is to change them. 5 minutes! Not even! You don't even have to take the wheel off! It was easy for me to change them as they were leaking but how would you bleed the system if you...

    Engine Mount removal DII

    Is there a secret to getting the engine mounts off, especially the drivers side. I'm having trouble accessing the inner bolt of the mount. Does the whole bracket have to get removed from block? All I see for it is just two bolts on bottom. Is there any bolts on top of bracket too? The manual...

    OME Spring question

    I'm looking at putting in the OME heavy duty springs in front of my 2000 Disco II. It states that a load of 150-250 lbs in front will roughly give 1.75 inches lift. Am I safe to assume that with less weight it will probably be double that. Basically, I want to start getting my truck ready for...

    Largest Battery in stock Disco location

    I think it's a perfect fit. A 1000 CA caterpillar battery from an 18 wheeler fits perfectly. A small extension for the ground wire, top mount posts, and a different securing bracket and you're set.

    Disco II brakes - do not inspire confidence?

    Did all the brakes, 3 amiges are there, flushed the system and it seems like the brakes do not inspire confidence. Yes, they work and it stops, ABS kicks in but can't lock them up and it almost feels like there is a tiny bit of modulation at full brake. Are all Disco's like that or something...

    3 Amigos - Can I drive with it?

    Did the brakes and the 3 amigos seem to have come on. Did some research on how to fix it and will eventually get around to it but can I still drive around with it on? Is the system fully disabled when lights are on? When stepping on the brakes hard, it feels like there is some slight...
