Diversifying my channel content a little here. Last fall I took a trip to Alaska with my 500k mile BMW 328d towing a 20ft trailer loaded with an Argo and a Sled from Colorado to Palmer Alaska. (this video picks up in Washington) (Note: my car now has over 640k miles, this video is old)

Rebuilding a Land Rover Discovery 2 V8 Engine! | Part 5
Просмотров 1 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Was told not to check the cam bearings on this 4.6L v8 Discovery 2 engine because It always results in a full rebuild. I can confirm that to be fact because in this video, I installed new bearings, a reground crank, rings, rods & pistons, a front cover, and heads. I also replaced the oil pump and various other parts off-camera. Sit back relax and enjoy the sound of rain and neighborhood sounds ...

Follow along as we build the first Land Rover Discovery 2 to feature Nomad wheels and a mystic metallic brown paint job.
Is this for sale?
@@seattlefiorelli it sold a few months back!
I bought a pretty much restored 2001 disco 2 with a knocking engine. the previous owner had repainted the whole thing with rhinoliner in land rover green and the land rover white top. He said that he had just done the head gaskets and all but couldnt diagnose what was wrong with it. he then gave up on it because he said he was no mechanic. that was perfect for me because i am no body guy, but i definitely am a mechanic used to doing big jobs. I took it on and had life happen as it drove along decently. eventually i moved into a rental with a garage and finally got around to swapping the engine with a known good one. Just last week, i got it to run and i am just sorting two small codes. It has come a long way and i've just been enjoying my time driving it around. Now, i need to register it, change the wheels and tires and ill deal with the codes and power steering box leak along the way. we gotta keep the classics alive! cheers from texas!
Saw that one on marketplace a little bit ago
I love your car, can you tell me more about the wheels ? Size and what about the adaptor that you used to fix the wheels? Where I can buy? Thanks !
That is a very nice Discovery. Great job!
Beautiful looking disco, where did you find those rims?
another banger
The RUclips videos on this Disco will continue. Jen loves it. Working on the next mods this weekend actually! Thank you Amos for putting all of your love into this Landy 🤎
Can’t wait to see the videos!
That's a bad ass disco. Love the shots in the campgrounds just showing it off.
This discovery was sold on bring a trailer for 14,950 August 31 2024
I hope it continues to live on in all hands it trades into. its a gorgeous truck.
that sprinter really got the balls of steel, also love the end builds 🔥
Great looking disco
The slight west you’re seeing on the new bearings just be from measuring. Nothing worse than paying a shop to do something and having to go over the work yourself. I feel that’s become the norm these days. It’s forced me to do more and more myself even though I’m pressed for time always. Side note: I hope you’re not running that 20w-50 in the Disco
@@sarahdell4042 it has definitely become the norm I learned though doing this. The same happened with the headliner, it looks fine but he didn’t do a good job, id like to redo it. No some people suggest 20w 50 all over the Facebook groups but I tried it for 30 seconds before the rebuild and immediately drained it out and went for a spec that matched the measurements I built the engine to and what’s recommended by LR.
@@GoodPeopleMotors I’m not sure why some people recommend it. Must be an older mindset… I’ve owned Discos since the 2 was new and only once ran 20w-50 and it was by accident. The motor is so much louder and less responsive.
@@sarahdell4042 that was also my experience, it barely ran
Looking fab!!
Brown wouldn’t have been my choice but i do like the lighter color roof. Ties the D2 to its earlier Land Rover siblings. A lot of Discos are rusting away. The saddest thing is a one in good mechanical condition with a rotted frame (I saw one recently). Nice to see someone restoring these.
Thumbs up for Graham Stephan and Dry Creek Wrangler School!
Going for a million miles, right?
Yep, but its all hand calculated now because my odometer stopped at 1 million kilometers.
I did a double take when the video started. I thought from the title you were towing a BMW. That's awesome. And my search for a BMW 328d begins.
Maybe I need to re-word it 😅 I’ve gotten 3 friends to buy them so far!
Let’s goo
This is wild to me. I've done some interstate hauling in dump trucks and the thought of towing with a sedan and going up hill just sounds awful to me, but looks like a smooth ride!
Hills aren’t really a problem, this thing has so much low end torque with the diesel it’s never skipped a beat over mountain passes.
Very cool! I've been eyeing Nomad wheels for my Discovery. What sizes did you go with for the wheel and for the tire? Can you tell me more about the adapter? Is this required for Discos? or was it for your preferred offset/spacing?
@@RajJesudason-e7d i went with 17” 5x130 +50et thus the adapters as nomad doesn’t offer a 5x120 in 17”. You could go with 18” 5x120 and they’ll bolt right up but that wasn’t enough tire for me. In summary 17” 5x130 +50 offset with 265/70/17 tires. Then 30mm adapters to make them fit is my setup
They always smoke a little on first start👍
Good to see another D2 saved.
Great Build, really love the colourcombo ! enjoy the car !
Cool color scheme!
The headliner was a nice touch. Looking good.
NIce! That engine temp was a little high. If you're in a cooler location, should have been in the 188 - 194 range.
You are right! I replaced the thermostat after that. The rings were breaking in too but it was hotter than i wanted to see it as well.
Whoa! I have been waiting so long to see this disco running again. It is such a beautiful ride! Congratulations and thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much!
beautiful ride. I know its a great feeling to have it running smoothly
One more saved disco
Good job dude. You kept with it and made it work! Beautiful truck by the way and color. Now to go change the oil on my 01 d2 4L in this heat. Keep the progress videos coming.
Leeettttssss Gooooooo! Love to see it
Hell yeah she starts!! This is a really nice video, happy to be part of it.
Glad it’s back on the road, I’m just about to undertake a rebuild on my 4.0
Im so invested now!
Thanks for sharing this journey!
As you say; on the home run! I really like how you have put the time, attention to detail and care into this project. Love my Landrover Discoveries. This one is going to be very special with everything you have done
thank you! I’ve found out once you get the discovery bug it’s hard to shake.
Iam thinking to change the Radiator its to small for Kuwait weather in summer we get to 60 c fire same win told me yukon radiator 2010 it will go in there write did anyone change landrover 2 radiator to another radiator 🇰🇼
Lets goo
😎😎😎
Looks dope but I would have done the nomad convoy salts.
Would have but the difference in white from the wheels to the cream roof would have drove me crazy and I’d have to repaint them. Didn’t wanna do that to brand new wheels and didn’t want to go whiter on the roof.
Slapdash work, you got royally screwed..... and with how fragile these engines are, they need to be done right. That block needs to be fully stripped down, properly cleaned, and inspected , especially for liner shift / leakage around the liners. This is how these become endless money pits, one cheap band aid repair after another, instead of a total teardown and ACTUAL rebuild....
Yup, it’s going to a new shop finally found a guy who knows these engines and cares about his customer. He’s checking everything, crank, rods, pistons, liners, heads, the whole works. Engine should return clean and ready for assembly. Stoked about it!
I feel your pain
I have a disco 2 from 2001 they are great cars actully and they deserve what we do for them Keep going man respect to you ❤
Thank ya! Wish we could save all of them 😅
i can see shovel back there 😍
I bought my slightly used 2001 D2 18 years ago when it had 50k miles on it. Over the years did head gaskets, air bags, three amigos, blah, blah blah...never actually broke down or stranded me, always got me home and now as I cross the 200k mile line my plan is to do a complete overhaul and install the Turner top-hat liners that I bought a couple of years ago. Bottom line - I'm never going to let my Disco go but let's keep it a secret because I'll buy them for $1200 all day long.
Are those tires 33 inches? I can't tell...
They’re just under 32”
Thanks @opleMotors I'm over in Eastern WA and just purchased a 2001 D2 so I'm excited to follow you on this one.
@@ShireTown1824 heck ya! Maybe once this is wrapped up we can hit a trail
Never can believe what customers say. Fresh rebuild plus any new parts. Great Job. 👍
Man I’ll tell you something having a motor not sitting in a clean place with dirt and open like that is not good. Any little dust partial that gets in the motor when it’s like that will get in the crank bearing and it won’t last long at all
Ill have to put it together on a table after cleaning it.
Land Rover life at the fullest 😚; but keep going!
Almost there 🤙🏻
