It sort of wonders when you hit a bump, so I need to crawl under there and see what bushings need replacing.
This Disco runs damn good for over 250k miles....started up on the 2nd crank after we put the FP in.
SRSLY JELLY.....but I still like Classics better. ;)1974.5 Jensen Healey : 2003 330i/5

I've never been more happy working on a vehicle. Usually I get angry.1974.5 Jensen Healey : 2003 330i/5

They all have their problems. Biggest ones are head gaskets and electronics. Neither will leave you stranded on the trail.
They are incredibly heavy where they need to be and quite light where the don't. Axles, frames, transfer cases, and suspension components are all beefy beyond my belief.

Got the front shocks and new driveshaft installed this evening. Thanks 10Toes for the help.
Got sent the incorrect rear shocks, so still rocking the stock blown rears. Vibration is still present after the front driveshaft replacement so need to dig further into that as well. Also going to replace the steering dampener when I get the new rear shocks in.
Still need to replace the drivers seat and CD Changer. Also changing the diff / transfer case lubricants.
January/February will be HeadGasket / Engine topend month. Going to replace the cam, lifters, top end gaskets, plugs, wires, etc. I'm going to inspect the Cam first but I can only assume the lobes are pretty worn out.
