mods... I think you can get more than a 2" lift out of those. Am I right guys? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Does it have air suspension in the rear? That would suck...

unusual main... I believe they just had a recall on a bunch of Disco II's. We've been replacing the ABS mod plates. You should check and make sure that was done if it was one of the recalls.

Forget the lifespan of the engine. You should be more concerned about the lifespan of the vehicle! If you are a Toy owner, you know that they last forever. (My boyfriend has an '87 4Runner...37" Swampers...with over 300K on the original engine.) I believe that if you TAKE CARE of the vehicle ie: regular maintenance, making sure fluids are full (especially w/ a Rover), etc., it will last a lot longer than something you just drive every day. If you respect the vehicle, it will respect you.

I'll get back to you on the other things. Good luck! I hope it's a great deal!
