Cool video! Nice to see fails, not wins only. I have heard that blending paint is an art. Why didn't you buy a premixed one with testers?
@rebuildrevival4 күн бұрын
Hey, thanks. The color was mixed based on the factory color code which I figured would be close enough. But, some panels on this car have already been painted including the rear driver door which looks like it has a brownish tint in the clear, might just be from sitting at the auction yard and need some cutting/polishing. I will redo the blend on the roof area if it doesn't look decent with some wet sanding/polishing.
@TomDeSadeleer4 күн бұрын
Massive color difference now with the door... Why not blend into the panel? This was a really easy fix and very easy to blend 🤷
@rebuildrevival4 күн бұрын
I think there is something going on with the door paint, I didn't show it well but looks like it has a brown tint in the clear and is not the factory paint. It may look better with a paint correction. Also, this is my first time painting and I didn't really trust myself to be able to blend very well and didn't want to mess any other panels up.

I can see me upgrading the waterpump even though i replaced mine in the winter during a failure. I upgraded the inline already after my headgasket replacement. But i still have my factory rad on my 04. A highflow rad is on my list but with my eyesight being poor cant use my skills anymore to tackle the mods you had to do for your rad upgrade. Still watched as vids like this show the dedication to the Disco 2 community.

There may be better brands making the aftermarket radiator more of a straight swap, I just didn't want to wait for another one. I'll be doing more videos on this Disco as it's a personal project of mine. Thanks for the comment!

My 04 E60 had the exact same problem, driving one day and i just hear a giant clunk, look under the car and my sway bar is dragging on the pavement! We tried our hands at welding a new bracket but lack of proper tools and experience resulted in it breaking again. Ended up just taking the sway bar off, but I think I'm gonna take a crack at it following this exactly, thanks!

@@bbmanebbmane8926 I actually did, i tried removing the lines to do it but the first one snapped. i ended up just cutting the 2nd line off after it and plugged both with solder. my rear sway bar was also leaking my entire power steering reservoir in a couple of days so i cut those and plugged them as well. i thought it might be an issue and build up pressure or something as i didnt loop the lines but i havent encountered any issues since doing it last summer. honestly couldn’t care less about losing the dynamic stuff since i dont drive crazy in it.

Thanks for this video mate! I’ve always read on Disco 2 forums the Nissen rads were the better rads depending on if you have a diesel Td5, petrol V8 and petrol V8 engine with SAI. Allisport is supposed to be the best rad but that is if you want to pay £619/$787 from here in the UK.
@rebuildrevivalАй бұрын
I have also read that about the Nissens, I just wanted to go full aluminum not plastic tanks with the aluminum crumpled on. Let’s see how this one holds up! I’ll be doing a build series on the disco in the future, so stay tuned!

Hey thanks! This was my first time doing this so it took me some time to learn, If I did another set now it would probably take me 3-4 hours if it was just a straight swap not including removal or installation time. One of the things that takes some time is removing the old sealant. Hope this video helps with your project!

Sorry about the radiator.Have the same concerns about the oversized radiator. Thanks for the water pump information. I’m getting one. Did the thermostat mod too. Easy. I also got rid of all the plastic hose connectors, switching to all aluminum, including the overflow bottle. Easy to bleed..just start the car and then run it at 2500rpms for a minute. Only need to do it a few times. Nice video.
