No shit, I’m in my garage wrenching in my 98’ D1…These vids are what started everything. More of these vids, Troy…Best part was you going down the hill with the swear words…that’s real Rover Rescue material..Thumbs Up!
Nice rescue.
Looking forward to the next steps.
Got a rust free 97 in that beautiful red! In the process of doing my best to put it back on the road! Love these videos!
Great rescue guys. Lovely Disco in Rioja red metallic wich suits it well. Had one myselves years ago in Rutland red( non metallic). Those where great family cars at the time. Hope you get it started and have it up and running soon🤞🏻👍🏻😎
It’s honestly beautiful! The red is super pretty
Dammit, that’s a solid early 97 find.
Let me know if you don't want the bumper, looking for an original w/ fog light cutouts, lol. Great video! Was just working on my 95 today. Great to see you are working to bring this back to life!
I have a complete d1 bumper with lights.
Awesome video. Also how about that baby making music?
Disco 1 parts are cheap and they are pretty damn easy to work on. Every single problem they have is WELL known. A ratty D1 would be a MUCH easier prospect than anything rover made that came after it except a defender.
This thing will almost immediately require a fuel pump and a starter. When they’ve been sitting a bit those two items seem to fail within a short time. Also, when it does start running it will immediately idle very high while the GEMS system relearns. People immediately hear high idle and start twisting screws and tweaking things that guarantee it’ll never run again”right”.
Stoked on this D1! ❤
got a 97 disco 1 myself. its a daily but lemme tell you if it aint one problem its another.
I have the same Roja Red D1 that I purchased for 500 lol. Didn't buy it to make money just wanted a decent truck that I could tow with occasionally and its been an awesome truck. Mine had been sitting for 3 years and with a new battery started right up, that was the good news the bad was a lengthy list of seized brakes and rusted brake lines as well as rusted front floor (good thing I'm a welder lol) after lots of man hours to get it back on the road the last issue I'm having is front in vibration around 50 mph. I've replaced the track rods and ends and steering dampener as well as new tires. In your expert opinion where should I go next?

Front shocks and especially the bottom nuts on the shocks. Zipping up those bottom nuts will sometimes kinda help a death rattle. As well as the rubber bushings in the trailing arms. Long shot you can check the steering shaft linkage on drivers side in engine bay, those usually are covered by heat shield from the factory. Basically every rubber suspension bit is 25 years old at this point. Does it still have the OG harmonic damper on the front axle? They get torn off sometimes, and folks claim they didn’t actually do anything but they definitely were there for a reason.
@@AddictedMotors all of those done when I replaced all the hard break lines as well as the flex lines to the calipers. Both rear calipers and pads all around. Just wondering if I should dig into the swivel ball seals and axle

Dude MAF. If it’s engine shake over 50. Only other is plugs but I’m pretty sure it’s MAF
