    Raingler Universal 38x48 2" Cargo Netting

    I have a never-used Raingler Universal 38"x48" 2" web cargo net for sale. The original that I purchased can be found at: http://www.raingler.com/#!product/zoom1vsy/1662173005/universal-2-inch-net-38x48-inches. I'm selling this on eBay as well, but how about $75 shipped to an ExPo member?

    SOLD - 2004 Land Rover Discovery

    SOLD Since we got the boss a Range Rover Sport and she promised to share, I'm going to see what I can get for my Disco. I love it, but we don't need three vehicles. Locally I'm selling it for $10k (which I know all of you would scream at), but I'm in no hurry and have put a lot into her...

    Emergency Kit

    Boring Sunday Question I know this has been discussed at length for overlanding, but I want to ask this for just driving down lonely highways. As I've referenced a few times in other posts, right now my fiance and I are a 2 vehicle family (down from 3). I drive a Subaru for work, she had a...

    Metal in the Diff - '06 MKiii

    Still trying to find the fiance a proper Rover....do I run away from an '06 MKiii with 61k priced at $20k if they say there was metal shavings in the diff? I know a simple fluid swap may clear that out...but should I be prepared for future issues? Wasn't there a diff recall on these? Thanks.

    Cargo Space: 2006 MKiii vs LR3 vs RRS

    With all rear seats removed, which has the most cargo space? I assume the MKiii wins but how much larger is it than a LR3 or RRS? Let's use 2006 for the comparison. I found the "stats" of cargo volume etc online, but nothing comparing them without the rear seats. Can a normal size person ~...

    Winching Strength of Aspen Trees

    Admittedly, this is an odd question and an odd problem to have. Long story short, due to the huge amount of snow we've received recently and the idiocy of where I parked my snowmobile in the fall, my adventurous dog has a 4' platform of snow to aid in backyard escapes (in the summer it's hole...

    '03 MKiii vs my '04 D2?

    First off, this is not the semi daily "Toyota vs Rover" pre-purchase post where I will start planning all of the aftermarket accessories I'm going to buy on an imaginary vehicle. :coffee: Also, thanks in advance for following along with my rambling out-of-order thoughts. I must have forgotten...

    Battery Charger/Jumper

    I asked this in the Support Equipment forum, but have had no responses and this one seems to have a lot more traffic, so this is attempt x2: While my 375 amp B&D battery charger has gotten me out of some jams in the past, it doesn't seem strong enough to give my Optima Yellow Top battery a...

    Battery Charger

    While my 375 amp B&D battery charger has gotten me out of some jams in the past, it doesn't seem strong enough to give my Optima Yellow Top battery a boost. I'm glad I figured this out in my driveway and not in the middle of nowhere. Which battery charger do you all recommend that won't fail...

    Fog Light Wiring

    Yesterday I removed the stock bumper with aftermarket PIAA fog lights in anticipation of installing my new winch bumper. I also untaped the rats nest of wires that were hiding behind the grill - whoever the PO used to install these fog lights did an interesting job to say the least. THE GOOD...

    Disco II MV50 Air Compressor Mounting Suggestions

    As mentioned in my Rear Power Outlet thread, I just picked up an MV50 air compressor to refill tires after trails. I'm just wondering if others out there have mounting suggestions/pictures. Under the hood would seem tight and add to temps. In the back of my Disco, I have a sleeping/drawer...

    Battery Cables & Terminal Corrosion

    As mentioned in another post I am doing some additions to my electrical system in the D2 and figured to do it all in one fell swoop. Just got a Yellow Top and have some incredibly corroded battery cable terminals. Is there a good way to chop the current cable and mate them up with a new one...

    Rear Power Outlet

    Well I first tried to resurrect an ancient thread to ask this question, but there was no response…so I’ll try again. What’s the easiest/most reliable way to rewire the rear power outlet in a DII so it stays hot regardless of the key position? Need to run my fridge consistently on trips (lest...

    Roof Rack Time

    Today's front page article about the Front Runner Slimline comes at a good time for me at least...the next big purchase I'm going to make will be a roof rack for the Disco II (maintenance is about half done and my suspension upgrade is also half done {front gained a full 3" from OME springs and...

    Narrow Fridge?

    I asked this same question in the LR page, but figure this is the right place as it's not car specific, but fridge specific. I'm building (well, planning) a drawer system for the back of my Disco II with a sleeping platform on top. I wanted to install a fridge that would be flush with the...

    New-to-Me '04 Disco II

    I picked up my Disco II today and drove it 300 miles home. Incredibly happy with it as a platform for my next project. It's replacing my pickup as a toy hauler and filling the void left when I sold my TJ about 5 years ago. Been wanting a Rover since the day I turned 16 - although a 110 was...
