    Post pictures of your Land Rover.

    This is my 2001 Discovery 2 LE dubbed "The Goat" because it goes anywhere you point it. This is the only pic I have on this PC of him. I'll be out this weekend at the Hill Country Rover Rally at Hidden Falls in Spicewood, TX. I should have some better pics and film then.

    Guess who's back!?! Atl-atl's K5 Blazer + Four Wheel Camper "The Crawlin Cabin" documentation thread!

    I like the Carter rotary style pumps because they are rebuildable. Most just use a Holley Red and keep a spare in the toolbox. Edit: I see some are recommending the small plastic inline Mr. Gasket pumps. While they will get the job done, I find that for some reason they like to crap out in high...

    Guess who's back!?! Atl-atl's K5 Blazer + Four Wheel Camper "The Crawlin Cabin" documentation thread!

    You can usually band-aid vapor lock by putting an inline electric fuel pump on you fuel line just after the gas tank. There is other voodoo like putting wooden clothes pins on the line going into the carb and wrapping the fuel line that is under the hood with aluminum foil but I find just...

    Next truck

    From Wiki: It will still have the weaker 4l65e transmission but a 6.0 and a 14 bolt rear axle with a G-80 limited slip. Still a decent truck if you get a good price on it.

    Square Body Suburban Info

    I can honestly say I have never calculated MPG in my 91. It's not why I bought it.

    04 2500 suburban build

    How much do you want for the Front IFS diff from the Burb? Is it already 4.10?

    Opinions on Suburban 2001 rig?

    Walk up with 3500.00 in fresh $100 bills and walk away knowing you got an excellent deal for a 2500 Burb.

    Old Junk vs. New Junk?

    I went and looked at new trucks and they are insanely expensive these days. The new GMC 3/4 2500s are almost as much as the first house I bought in 2000. Im on the hunt for a 2006/2007 Duramax Crew Cab with 200k or less now. I will gladly spend up to 20k on an older diesel and not have to worry...

    1981 K30 Flatbed Camper Build

    There is a product from 3M called panel-bond. It is used in the automotive world to attach body panels to the internal framing/ Probably be good to attach your honeycombs to the framing and the aluminum to the panels. https://www.amazon.com/3M-Adhesive-Manual-Applicator-Sticker/dp/B00KSF9TCW

    "Double down or fold" - Part 2 ...

    Around my parts, there are literally hundreds of GMT800 Burbs and Tahoes in the Boneyards. You can probably grab a front and rear diff from one with 4.10s already installed for $100 each. Then it only costs you labor for installing them. It can be done in your driveway and the only specialty...

    2003 4x4 Suburban 2500 rear bumper mounted spare tire

    He doesn't have a lot of what he does on his website. give him a call, I'm sure he's made a few GMT800 products. My rear bumper with both swingouts was 1200.00, my front winch bumper was 700. Shipped through Fastenal for 120.00. I literally got both bumpers shipped for the price of a single...
