A Buffalo, NY based Land Rover parts and off road equipment supplier. I leave them unnamed due to the freedom based culture of Oppo, but if you were wanting to know who the company is, one would say that flipping a coin and landing on heads 10 out of 10 times is Lucky and if you multiplied 4 x 4, what would you get?

More sensors on the way to resolve check engine issues now, which means SOOON........

Looks like they review well on Pirate 4X4. Never heard of them, but that's not a shock. Generally, Series stuff means Rovers North, AB/BP, or Paddock Spares, so it's more limited overall.

Yeah those tires are a wee bit unnecessary but this is the same color as mine and I don;t feel like posting the same pic I always post of my rover next to a properly maintained and built one.

Rovers North is soooooooooo high, seriously dude their markup on back stock parts is at least 300%. I much rather my money go to Justin and crew. I cannot wait to get her all fixed up (probably a bunch of bad sensors somewhere on the car) and then start upgrading.

Most of the AB/BP stuff for Series comes from the worldwide aftermarket Allmakes network, though, so even with their markup the parts are still reasonable-ish - and that keeps Rovers North a bit more in line.

For Rangies and Discos, you can totally go with somebody else, and I encourage it.

aint to reason to recommend a good vendor, you aren't getting paid by them. I pimp Kirt at cruiser outfitters all the time.

I absolutely love that Monte Carlo Blue on your Disco. Doesn't matter if it's built up or not, it'll get you where you want to go. How many miles do you have on it?

I do love their blown up disassembly views they have so you can pinpoint weird little bits and bobs that you need from time to time, glass run channel, windshield cowling, etc. Soon all the exterior plastic on the old girl will be brand new and will get 3M wrapped to seal it all from the weather going forward. I think Rhino lining everything looks tacky and bro-ish.

91k on the body, less than 20k on the powertrain, lol. I'm going to have to put a blackout on her roof because she was a Florida (Wooo!!) girl when she was young and she is losing a lot of her luster up there.

Yeah and you can do an Isuzu diesel swap with Steve Parker, I have too many cars now and not enough money or I would hunt one of these down. My w123 Mercedes has proven it can drive all over Africa so I technically don't need one of these haha, I do want it. If I ever have gobbs of disposable income I plan on finding a Range Rover coupe and properly building it up with a good diesel.

I would kill for a TD5 and subsequent 6 speed manual out of the Defender 110, that would certifiably turn my girl into the overlanding best that I dream her up to be.
