Thanks everyone for helping me diagnose my mechanical issues in pursuit of restoring my Disco II to optimal running condition.
Here are the major repairs/services I'll need to render to my Disco:
#1: Rebuild or Replace front and rear driveshafts
#2: Replace all four brake pads only (rotors are good) and Flush Brakes
#3: Tune Up: Change out wires and plugs
#4: Repair 3 ABS Amigos issue (servicing abs system)
I will *not* be able to do #1 and #2 as I don't have the tools and/or strength to do so. PLUS, my apartment building does not allow the repairing of vehicles on the premises, except for under the hood fixes like #3 and #4.
Has anyone had experience having their driveshaft(s) rebuilt or replaced by a "professional" mechanic? Any suggestions in the Dallas area?
Frankly I'm skeptical of mechanics, especially when dealing with this vehicle. If it's not their inexperience about this particular vehicle that worries me, it's the concern of being ripped off. Mind you I'm just a budget-minded college student.
Thoughts?
