Your disco looks brilliant fella, that really is something to be proud of ! Have you re-sprayed it or is the colour as u bought it ??

My rev counter started doing exactly the same a couple of weeks before the alty packed in . Just a heads up ;)

Not as such . We towed a discovery home the way u just described , one tow ball mount and onne shackle mounted . It twisted the shackle and scoured the bumper to **** . Tow ball to tow ball is a much better way .

Recently fitted myself my DIY snorkel ( dont judge it looks mint for a DIY jobby ) but as the snorkel top is facing forward there is a puddle forming in the airbox with all this bloody rain :doh: Has anyone got any tips on how to avoid flooding the thing ??

If you are trying to get the heater matrix out , well it is basically a full dash out job as the thing is huge . Mine packed in last winter but it was just a blockage which is now fixed . Have you tried to see if there is a fuse for it ??

So the 8mm ones will be ok dude??
