    Cheap truck challenge, sick day edition

    Home from work sick, leads to a wandering mind and boredom. Not generally a good mix. :rofl: I watched the most recent Dirt Every Day episode where they covered the CTC 2015. This years event was more of a "weekend camper"/exploration style competition for those that haven't seen it. I love...

    1990 Range Rover Classic

    I am putting my project vehicle up for sale. This is a very solid 1990 Range Rover Classic. It is incredibly rust free. It does have 244,000 miles on it but it runs like a champ!

    1990 Range Rover project

    I wanted to document the progress I'll will be making on a new project I picked up. My first experience in the Rover world was when I bought a really nicely outfitted 1989 Classic from my dealerships shop foreman, about 10 years ago. It had RTE lift springs, castor corrected radius arms, HD...

    Leaf spring clunk/pop when turning

    I am trying to figure out a way to stop my front leaf spring from popping when I turn the steering wheel. The leaf pack is twisting and hitting the leaf spring clamps and it's driving me nuts!

    Clutch rebuilding?

    Does anyone know if anywhere local does clutch rebuilding? I need to do the clutch on my scout and am thinking it would be nice if I could take the pressure plate and clutch disc in for refurbishing. New clutch kits are like 400, and it seems like I could save a few bucks
