    Loved your rig, gave some inspiration for my D2. I was wondering how you mounted your drawer to the back? And did you use server rails for the slides? Sweet DIY on that.

    @@JackKetcham the frame that the draw mounts to is bolted to the floor in 4 places with some custom brackets that go through factory nuts in the floor. The drawer slides are 100kg rated 1m drawer slides and the second slide for the gas stove is a roller bearing style set of slides also 100 kg rated. hope you build something nice for your d2

    I got mine (1994 D1) for $2000 U.S. It was so cheap because the dealer thought there was something wrong because he couldn't get it OUT of 4WD. I didn't have the heart to tell him that it's always in 4WD. I chuckled all the way home...

    3.6 powered wranglers are amazing, especially Rubicons with the 4:1 transfer case and D44s with front and rear E lockers stock. And the E disconnect sway bars. And the magic traction control. And more flex than any other 4WD you can buy.

    I had a Discovery 1 300tdi commercial for 6 years and the only after-market modifications were a larger inter-cooler, removal of the EGR valve, wheel spacers and the turbo adjusted to compliment the larger inter-cooler and apart from a sudden clutch failure while cruising down the motorway, a heater matrix springing a leak and a water pump seal blowing, the Discovery proved to be reliable, very economical and straight forward to repair. It was also very practicable, fun to drive and good off-road too!
