                  Another fun fact about LAND rover is they will ship your car down from Alaska with road side assistance if it broke down. Since the closest dealership is Washington. I just had a car shipped to me from Fairbanks to do some work to it and when were done Land Rover will ship it back up to Alaska. It's crazy it costs like 4 grand each way.

Had em on for a day drove maybe 40 miles... Anyways thru my old wheels back on. (keep in mind there was no vibration or shimmy prior to these XXR wheels) and you guessed it now the vibration is still there I'm on stock wheels now. So wtf. Did I break something or what?


                        Could be needing alignment or you messed up your wheel bearing

                          Seth, are those just resonators or mufflers on your old setup? Which brand?

                              For some reason I've only heard bad things about that thing. My oem guibo has held 400wtq for some time now and shows no sign of failure

                                Ive heard bad things too, like lots of drivetrain vibration.

                                I got a spare late model m42 to build for $100. came with a blown auto trans and a dinan throttle body installed! Im cleaning up the throttle body for my car this weekend.

                                since the engine sat outside for a while (seemingly) I am planning on sending the head off to be hot tanked and have a valve job. Perhaps supertech springs will be added so I can drop in some nice camshafts down the road. The camshafts in there have surface rust but nothing crazy (e30 cams are better anyways).

                                As for the block Im on the fence about having any machine work done to it. was gonna upgrade to 360 degree bearings and call it a day. R&R timing components and reseal. Probably will be 1000-1400 all said and done, depending on how much machine work. any tips/recommendations?
