My Name is Ross.... And I have an addiction....to Land Rovers

Did some maintenance today. I'm now at 167k miles.

Replaced the heater core, replace some exhaust gaskets, new tensioner and pullies and put in a new driverside motor mount.

Its like a new truck. I just need to change the transmission fluid before winter sets in.
 
Tranny has 167k. I don't think it's been done forever. I'm kind of scared to do it. Should probably just leave well enough alone. That's why I've never done it to this disco. The only fluid that has not been changed on it.

Jeep has 175k. Previous owner did at 100k. I figure I wasn't power flushing or anything, just dropped pan and replaced filters, then refilled. Replacing 6qts out if 14 won't kill it. I've done 800 mi since then, no change at all.

Sucks you don't have a dipstick...
 
Last thing to do to this thing besides change the transmission fluid. The front hubs are shot after 170K miles. I can't get my abs sensors to work anymore. So my dash has been a Christmas tree for awhile. New front shiny hubs with new ABS sensors.

Thinking about regearing and going up to 33" tires from 32" tires. I know it's really extreme. Don't hate.

Replaced the hubs tonight. The driverside was pretty much dead as I suspected. It sounded pretty crunchy when I pulled it out and turned it by hand. No more ABS lights. I'm only out 2 hours of my time and $150. Not bad.
