Sunday Drive in a Land Rover Discovery 1

A few unseasonably warm days melted all the snow that had been covering our local mountain roads, so I spent a morning checking on some favorites. Conditions were nearly perfect, with surprisingly few trees down.
There was almost too much traction, though, so I'm already looking forward to some more spring rain.

Production quality has gone through the roof! Amazing work Tyler!

[@tfrasca142]

Wow, thanks!

[@RandyFarnes]

Yeah, really nice videography. May I ask what cameras you're using?

[@tfrasca142]

@@RandyFarnes Thank you. I have an older Nikon D610, a GoPro 10, and a Mavic Air 2 drone.

Nice work

[@ethanharvey5368]

love the d1 so simple yet so capable

[@tfrasca142]

Hard to argue with solid axles, decent suspension articulation, and a V8.

[@islandoverlander1634]

Great work and nice rig!

[@Zeezu70]

Look how clean that front diff is - I don't know if mine has *ever* looked that clean! : ) I spied some of that classic Disco rear-end pogo - I blew out a couple pairs of 9-way adjustable Rancho rear shocks before finally switching to custom valved remote res shocks that could provide the proper dampening for a camping-gear-loaded Disco zooming over the terrain. I ran Fox Shox at first, but have recently upgraded to an Australian brand called Superior Engineering, 8-way adjustable remote res shocks. Kingpin Fabrication in Australia custom valued them for me and they are like butter on the trail, it's amazing!!

Fantastic to have such driveable country nearby.
Love the Disco 👍

[@tfrasca142]

Yeah, we’re pretty spoiled in that sense. And thanks!

[@KobtsevRC]

Hello champ! You ran into that stump again)))) Cool video! Love it!

[@tfrasca142]

Ha! I was hoping no one would notice.

Damn thing is invisible on the approach 😂

As long as at least some of the people want this, I'll keep trying.

That’s how you do a video

[@Cypress1983]

Soooo good. The cinematography is fantastic. Even managed to capture how steep some of that stuff really is.

[@tfrasca142]

Thanks, dude! I got fired up about that alternate exit on Disco Fever after you said you hit it. I'll bet money that it's WAY easier with the current dryness.

Added this to ‘my favorites’ playlist. More please!

[@tfrasca142]

That's great to hear, thanks. I'm trying to make more videos, but it's a lot of work!

[@Isaac0516]

I’m sure it changes the dynamics of your typical offroad drive. I hope its still enjoyable for you to go out off roading while taking videos. Haha
May I ask the size of tire you are using?

[@tfrasca142]

@@Isaac0516 Still enjoyable, because I've been enjoying learning more about videography. Tires are 255/85r16.

I will be in Portland soon.. Not sure where your located. It would be awesome if my range rover was in one of your videos.. Kinda Surprised that you don't have some kind of front skid plate on there. Though it does look more nimble without one, you never know when something is going to target that front end under there... Great videos, music is good too not over powering the vehicle and trail sounds. When your off-roading what gear do you run in? I use third, low range for most slow tracks, it gives pretty good control and plenty of power, when you need it. Take care.

[@tfrasca142]

Thanks for the comment. I'm down in Corvallis, and I love a good RRC. I've been thinking about a skid plate. I did slightly bend my drag link, so some protection would probably be wise. My D1 is an automatic, so I generally leave it in third for climbs, and first or second for descents.

[@tomasbriceno6920]

ohh simply perfect, amazing… what upgrade do you have in suspension 3” terra firma?

[@tfrasca142]

Thank you. It's a 2" Terrafirma lift, plus 1" spring spacers.

[@tomasbriceno6920]

thanks great job! It looks great, that spacer from Supreme Suspensions? and sorry to bother you but that configuration is perfect.
