Sure

Mine came without any doors at all, while I'm waiting to find some hard doors that don't cost $1,000 each, I found a great deal on softies. Where I'm running into a problem now is the passenger door won't stay shut, it keeps popping open. Are there different strikers for the soft doors vs the...

there's a weird phenomenon where all the red river ones have the radiators yanked lately, it wasn't like that when I got mine six months ago. I can only assume they're pulling them for rebuilds since RR is the main place in the world that rebuilds them.

It started right up and drives but pulls to the right, someone local is going to show me how to align it. Alternator rattles a bit but other than that I’ve still been driving it after a full lube up. Need to figure out why the heater doesn’t blow on the drivers side floor because that will hurt...

I’m interested in this too because I blew up my upper control arm ball joint boot by putting in too much grease

Where can I get some more of the rubber coating they used on all these bolts that are near the battery. I'm paranoid about arcing the battery with the seat cover...

4 grand for 4 doors in pretty rough shape on average

Yikes with those prices I guess I won’t drive mine this winter unless I can locate cheap soft doors!

The govplanet auctions lately are insane, i just watched an A2 that had WHITE ENGINE OIL bubbling out in the video sell for 18k !!!

Looks like I’m buying a new one then because mine has been contaminated with tranny fluid from the vampire problem

Not that I have a problem with buying a new one, but I seem to remember reading in one of the service manuals that its washable.

No the boot popped and blew out some of the grease the ball joint is fine from the looks of it

I don't remember the last time I used a grease gun on zerks, but I definitely damaged at least one of them. Probably should have watched a youtube video on how do to this before trying. Where I went wrong is assuming that you just pump grease in until it starts weeping then move onto the next...
