Rover Man Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Well fitted the HD torque converter on Friday and changed the oil and filter in the auto box this morning, What a difference. no more reving its nuts off just smooth power all the way through. Will make a massive improvment when pulling the shed about. Next job on the list is to sort the twisted exhaust manifold out Another one of landrovers little issues when you have them mapped for more power. Need to get it skimmed and cut the webs out.

Rover Man Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 done another one of the small jobs today. Now for some reason Land Rover decided that as my D2 as TC then the center diff lock isnt needed. So as per normal all they did was not fit the linkage setup but fitted the diff lock transfer box So managed to fin a good used Ashcroft linkage setup for a very good price. So this is with the center console removed.. And the bit on the transfer box you need New linkage fitted All back together Diff lock off. Diff lock on... Just need to get it in the mud and see how it performs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willb Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) That looks awesome. I just bought a 2002 (51 plate) TD5 Discovery 2 Adventurer which I'm chuffed to bits with. Very low mileage and 2 owners, 75k on the clock. Currently it's stock but after reading your thread, a few bits will be added sooner rather than later. I have already got the sports bar for the 2 spots on the way but that's it at the moment. I'm looking at what tyres to get, General Grabbers keep coming up on the LZ forum.Have you heard of Dynachip? I have been recommended getting this map put on mine. Edited March 25, 2014 by Euphoria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 Yep Mike of Dynachip gets good reviews and a big plus is he comes to you. I went with Alive as i plan more upgrades later and will take a trip up to him to get it on his new 4x4 rolling road Good resource of info http://www.thed2boysclub.co.uk/index.php?sid=8727b4e53571d0f87cb63c3c16ed4fe6 And a new one but the lads are great http://landrover-owners-club.com/phpbb3/index.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
