My New/First Car! :)

Recommended Posts

Well, here it is... It's a 2004 Land Rover Discovery SE7. I don't turn 16 for another 3 months so I guess I'll have to stare at it till then :(. But here are my plans for it (audio wise)...(1) IA DP 21", (1) AQ 2200D, (1) Deka 9A31, Knu wiring, and other chit... Was going to do dual DC LV4XLs, but this set up will save me $1k & I'll get that 'WOW' factor when people see it.

With out further ado, some pics:

One, GREAT thing... I can lock it w/ my stock keypad where no internal door handles/locks work. This means that even if they break a window to get in, they can't. No Door unlocks work...only my remote.

nice ride, hope you have a nice chunk of change set aside for maintenance and don't blow it all on your system because those things are not cheap to service :)

yarp...I know. But luckily, I don't pay for the servicings & replacing parts...just anything I want to add-on.

Im a big land rover guy, and have a 93 range rover classic myself. The d2s are extremely nice, but just don't plan on lifting it :P

They have too much electrical to lift, and this series of disco land rover did away with diff lock and installed the fully functional traction control. So no lift kits :(

I don't want to sound rude or anything but everything you just said was wrong lol. I still have diff lock (center only, but that's what all LRs have regardless of the years), Hi & Low, and I can lift it with ease. The 2004 is actually the best Discovery II offroad wise.

nice ride man!

do the lvl4xl's!:)

eh IDK lol. I've already talked my friend into a pair of those (15") and I don't want to have the same setup as him lol. I'd save a chitload going this way and it's still one hell of a sub.

I also think that the scores will be relatively close in the right box.

just did a bit of research...can't find a lift kit anywhere for this discovery. found lots of coil over conversions to replace the airbags though. now 94 or older, i found a couple of 2" kits.

not starting anything, but if anyone is going to dispute anyone, post some links to collaborate your side. i'm curious as to who's right. also, i hate the fact they will lock up the transfer case, and call it a diff lock. or center lock, or whatever, lol. if it's not in the pumpkin, it's not a diff. at least not by old school thought process.

but these are some whelling luxo beasts, a lift kit would be cool!

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:

I don't know about anyone else here but I wouldn't want to mess with the dude that is able to steal a 21 in a ported box by himself. LOL here's a pic of a range I did back in 2003

The company is called Rovertym. They make lifts, coils, bumpers, skid plates, rock guards, etc... They sell 2" Body Lifts & 2" Suspension lifts. They are basically, the best lifts you can buy for Land Rovers. My model doesn't have airbags 'I Believe'. I know for sure the back doesn't, haven't really checked the front. I'm guessing it doesn't though b/c the relay in the fuse box for auto-suspension is missing so I figure it never had the air springs.

Website: www.rovertym.com

Just browse around and you'll see.

Well you're right it doesn't have 3-way locking diffs. The ONLY SUV to have those off the line is the Mercedes G-Wagon that I know of. I don't even think the Defenders have those but I could be wrong. The 'center' just makes where front & back get equal power. But the left rear can spin faster then right rear if it has less weight on it's side.

What mine could look like if I was a serious offroader:

BTW, that's the same year as mine.
