My brake were shot and my rotors had been resurfaced so besides being super thin, the pads were really spent, the pistons on the calipers were REALLY Out! Called Steve at DAP-Inc. and got me a Heavy Duty brake kit, composed of seals, DBA Rotors, EBC Kevlar pads, and all necc. hardware...

UPDATE: 10/20/06

Thankfully, I've waited a while to obtain my lift. I've decided to hold off for so long because I can get an OME Set-Up for nearly half or 1/3rd the price of any other spring/shock kit available.

I will also be placing an order for a brand spankin new 300TDi with the same gentleman I ordered my snorkel with, Stephen from SafariRover in Orlando, FL. I've had both support and a handful of guys telling me not to go with the swap, but they were looking at it from a What-It's-Worth point of view. I'm actually planning to be buried with my Disco so I can really care less about value.

One day while day dreaming about what I would buy if I won the 5 Million dollars from the McDonalds Monopoly game...lol... I set myself a far-fetched yet tangiable Rover Wish List...

1) My 300TDi Discovery would be kept as a daily driver and work truck

2) a Soft Top Defender 90 with a rebuilt 3.9

3) a Defender 110 also equipped with a 300TDi that would be used as the overland vehicle / adventure / camping truck

3) a 2006 LR3 HSE for the wifey

4) and a Range Rover (non-supercharged) as the going-out-into-town vehicle

LOL...Far Fetched but with TWO more Rail Roads to go..lol...i think I can do it!

For now, I'll just keep dreaming!
