well fun hater, as a disco owner i think it would be kind of cool.....what then would you suggest? rrc? series?
disco chassis are cheap and abundant. 100" wheelbase.
support your claim. it already sounds like this guy wants to spend a fortune, so lets see what he comes up with.:smokin:

all of these are available thru the vendors section on this very bulletin board. but i believe i told you that the first time you posted up this idea. the 400 can be readily found here in any junkyard.
first off, what part of the world are you in? i can try to find you a junkyard 400 and crate it and ship it on your dime. but it won't be cheap.

youre kidding me, right?

well if spoon feeding is absolutely necessary...here's goes!
first look at his list, yes it's a great list but look at everything that he plans on replacing off of the disco.
drivetrain, axles, link setup, 110 frame (not 100" disco).
sounds to me like he doesn't even need a Disco to start this project, he needs a 110, a Bronco or a Blazer.
lets' face it, all those parts he's dreamed up as a whole would be a great basis for a nice buggy, but not on a butchered disco. to be honest, i wouldn't waste me time w/ any rover (aside from maybe a hybrid series) on a build up like this.
discos are to narrow, to top heavy, terrible electronics, underpowered (especially w/ 200tdi) oh yeah my bad, here's where the LS1 comes in :shaking:
i love the idea of a bomber build up, but to begin w/a disco is putting you behind the 8 ball before you even start.
this also coming from a disco owner:D

Are you not in the USA? Not knowing your location its pretty hard to make a recomendation.

TH400s are 50$ from the local classifieds.
Klune, advance adapters.
D-300 I never heard of such a kit. Maybe get an atlas

yes please. aren't you a dweb guy? maybe you should go back and play with kyle. too narrow? are you a retard. yes i guess you are right, i like having a really wide rig when i am trying to get through a tight squeeze. and i thought that it was just because of the independant suspension that hummers didn't do well on the rocks.:rolleyes:
let me fix your post for you. "a disco is not a good platform to festoon with ee bling":flipoff2:

besides,
mark, he asked for help inFINDING PARTS, not in your opinion of his build. yes he opened himself up to get flamed, but so did you.
welcome to a public forum.
the bottom line.....his truck, his build.......:smokin:

Anyone can take anything and turn it into something completely different if they throw enough skill, or money into it.

NOoooooo shiat!

Be careful with the Chebby-into-LR route. It is frought with pain and misery.

His IP shows he is from Spain.

Oh ok, so that's what this is about? i get it now. yeah that's me, i post on DWEB (infact i post on lots of LR forums :eek: ) and i'm guessin Kyle pissed you off too. wow there's a shocker. so now does this mean that everyone that posts on dweb are clueless... Hmmm lots of guys who post here post on Dweb too. guess we should all go back and play w/ kyle...:rolleyes:

it's interesting, through out this (http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=450497) thread you incessently complain how your disco sucks (under braked, under axled, high steer options bleek, and the 80" width is better than stock 60-ish ) yet you challenge me when i merely minic what you're already saying...

i stand by my innitial comment:
"a Disco is a terrible base for what he has planned"
and yes having "deep pockets" helps
someone need's to be honest w/ the guy. he'd be better off building on the 110 frame he says he has and ditching the disco to help pay for his build.

as far as being a retard....Hmmm well, i've been call worse, by worse

besides,
mark, he asked for help inFINDING PARTS, not in your opinion of his build. yes he opened himself up to get flamed, but so did you.

oh and about this...agreed, it is his truck.

flame on:D

:D ok, ok mark you got me......
i hate the brakes. i am impressed with a great many other things and i still really love the disco for a build up platform. the same way i have a thing for chicks with eating disorders.
yes i think kyle is a douche....i gave him a fair chance but he always comes across as a know it all turd. and one that doesn't know what he is talking about either.
back on topic.
this isn't much different than the guys in the chevy world that absolutely have to keep that s10 body. they will build up a k5 frame with one ton stuff, but keep that silly little truck body.
as far as the disco body on everything else....no not what i would do either. he is going to dump in more than the cost of a new rangie with those 400 cool ponies already under the hood.
but hey, i love my disco as well. i want to retain as much of the rover as possible, just put one ton axles in it mainly for the brakes.
so to the author of this thread, i will find you a tranny and ship it to spain. but it will cost you.......a lot.

btw, mark
i went back and looked and i am pretty sure i didn't call you a retard. if i did, i am sorry. i am sure you aren't a retard.

His IP shows he is from Spain.

Well that explains a lot.

Hmm, maybe you send me some Santana swivel balls, housings, hubs and disc brakes and I send you a TH400:laughing:

No, I'm renting storage space in a home that will be rented soon and I will then only be able to have access when it is convenient for those who are paying much more in rent than I am.

Due to the way we packed the moving van, I had to put the engines in the back and will need the driveway to unpack things to get to what I need most urgently, a transmission and t-case.

There are very few HOAs in PDX proper. Some of the subdivisions have them, but the city seems to be way cool-hell, you can have up to three chickens in your yard in the city. It's chick time at the tractor store and Shopgrrl (who regularly put the kibosh on such sillyness) is 2500 miles away!

I should get keys to the henhouse (dealership) early next week! Then, all of my troubles (at least those wrenching related) will go away.

I was on my way to some serious trouble for driving a loaner/demo truck everyday... Until those complaining were informed that the truck I was driving was mine:flipoff2:

PT

You have one single truck that is nice enought to be mistaken for a dealership loaner? :grinpimp:

It's Shopgrrl's truck, she lets me drive it!
