Hey , hey, a Yooper(or are you a transplanted troll?
)! Whereabouts are you up there? I used to spend TONS of time up there when I was closer. Mostly up past L'anse toward Skanee in the Huron Mtns. also spent alot of time in the Keweenaw north of Houghton/Hancock, but been pretty much all over and miss it. Spent a week up there last June and hoping to get back up there this summer for a week too.

Where in the UP? I'm in Green Bay.
Let me know what parts you need for the Disco. I might be able to help.

I am in the Sault so it is the Eastern UP. I attend Lake State (one more year to go) but I have lived here all of my life. I am pretty new to the whole Land Rover thing. So far I found that it goes through snow well which is the main reason I bought it other than the fact that it is a LAND ROVER! I have also found that it doesn't care for the cold too much although it has started every morning and I have yet to get a block heater installed.
Does anyone have any ideas on where to get a cheap soft spare tire cover that says Land Rover on it?
Again nice meeting everyone!

Hi guys, I live real close to Grand Rapids, MI. I have had my '96 D1 for less than 5 months so I'm pretty new too. I got sick of driving a RWD car in winter and all I can say is there is no substitute for 4WD! :drive:

I'm a new Land Rover owner and live in the south suburbs of Grand Rapids. I just bought a '96 Disco XD and can't wait to start driving it once I repair the head gasket. I think all of us Grand Rapids guys need to have a get together some time. I'd love to meet some other enthusiasts.

Yes, that's the one. I ended up doing a lot of maintenance though:
-new head gaskets
-new spring & shocks (OME 2")
-new drag link, track bar, steering stabilizer
-new front brake rotors & 1 caliper, I'll be doing the rears yet before winter and installing stainless hoses
-Disassembled, cleaned and fixed TC/CDL shifter & linkage
-New 245/75R16 tires
I will be driving it up to deer hunting camp this weekend up north, I can't wait to finally put a few miles on the truck. I really haven't driven it at all since I bought it due to the head gasket repairs needed.

I would be interested in that. I'm new to the offroad scene, are there any good trails around SW Michigan? Maybe we need to start our own small Land Rover SW Michigan club / support group? :beer:
