Introduction

Whats up guys, I'm turf. Met a lot of you guys at Rausch last weekend for the first time, I was the dude with the black and white corgi and the look of shear terror on my face as we drug my truck against rocks. I have a 99 D1 epsom green. Bought it stock 3 years ago with like 78k miles on it, for too much (4500) and started the passion by just replacing the silly stuff that went wrong like starters and rear window switches etc. Finally, i started throwing off road parts at it because i could and love wrenching, i used to be a hot rod guy (dad and i have a 67 camaro convertible and an 81 formula firebird turbo) but this 4 wheeling bug bit me. Anyhow, now the truck has a 2.5" lift and jakes old pizza cutter super swampers, just bought new (to me) rockware trailing arms off brian s. because i bent one of mine on the trail. I have OME +2" shocks in the mail because i blew my stock ones out on the trail. I have plans for tons of stuff, but for right now i need to focus on armor i think. So i guess diff guardsand sliders are in order. Oh, also, .love it or hate it, im the guy with the camo headliner.

Bill from Hartford, CT. I met a few of you at Rausch back in Nov '11 (I had the honor of pulling Jake out of the mudhole that ate his DI...).

The truck is an '04 DII - bought stock in '09, and have been bolting shit on since, to include:

2" OME HD suspension
Chevy T-stat conversion (best mod yet)
Mantec snork
EPi9 Superwinch
Bottorf front (a true classic..)
Rockstar Fab rear
rearseats removed w/ cargo deck mod to loadspace

2012 should see sliders and OBA of some sort.
Looking fwd to wheeling w/ you guys again.

Nice truck. Its always good to see someone else that actually got what they ordered from nate.

Hi Guys,

This is Kevin here (just joined... I think ) and I live in the Doylestown/Warrington PA area. I am the proud father of an 04 that goes by the name "Dagga Boy" which has a lift, 265/16 Wrangler MT/R's on steelies with upgraded front and rear steel bumpers.

Here he is next to my Dad's 88' Series IIA:

very cool kevin, welcome. Both nice trucks

Welcome, nice rides.

Thanks man, funnily enough that's actually where I bought my truck. This place right off canal street called Highline Imports. Oh and if I do happen to run into Dave Kase, I'll say no and go tell someone I trust.

Hopefully I'll be able to make it in April, I just have to make sure I am not on call that weekend and yes I happen to love pissing and moaning about my... I mean wheeling my truck. Although I'll be popping it's off roading cherry (at least with me, it swears its a virgin but there is a little too much mud underneath for that to be true).

Edit: Oh and I see that you have a five speed, I take it you threw in a standard box? How hard was it?

Hey everyone, Just got an account And logging on, Figured id start with an introduction on the "intro thread"

I've got a 1995 Rover LWB County. She's a handful, rebuilt engine, about 140,000 miles and its an overall fun and exciting Rover. Definitely a good base for some serious upgrading. Always looking for tips and advice on these rovers, ignition upgrades or possibly belt driven blowers or quick easy power upgrades, always having a good time when working on the Rover.


-as soon as I can post a picture i will do so.

Hi. My name is Dave (Hi Dave)...

I got me a new Land Rover Discovery 1 and am wondering if I need to do anything to it to take it off road?

Hey I'm AJ, I know i already did this, but now that there is an actually intro thread and decided why not. I'm from Haverford, PA and i have a 2004 Discovery II. A few mods on it now, but lots more to hopefully come this summer.

Moab - way cool.

Rausch? Great! Parts have stopped falling off mine. Now I collect dents.

Glad to see some people nearby. I'm in Doylestown PA...well, Plumstead actually, but there's even less of a chance of people knowing where that is.

These are the results of my latest poor decisions:



An '02 that needed a motor when I got it, and a '98 that needs an everything. I'm just dug into a head gasket job on Friday on that one. If I actually put some time in I could probably finish today.

What? The 944 in the background didn't empty your bank account quick enough?

Hey welcome DarylJ! I'm in Warrington and I know exactly where Plumstead if that makes you feel any better.

That's the problem....I finished it. Now it's not bleeding me dry anymore, and I didn't know what to do with the money I wasn't sending to Pelican Parts. So now I send it to Will Tillerly and AB.
