Could start rethinking from there, im not sure what broke on it but for 3k i can get a used motor put in, im just kinda iffy about it breaking something else, maybe ill put the stock tires on. After a long night of thinking it out and reading what you guys are saying i decided to stay away from the LR3, if i were to just take the money and buy a lightly used car i would want a h3, fj, or a taco.

Re: My h2's done with
Yes would be a nice project, but its my only transportation would be different if i had multiple cars, Only 21 so i havent got that far in life to have projects of that extent. Im not getting a rover i will probably be ending up in a FJ, I thought long and hard about the h3 vs fj and for the money i think i will be better off in a fj.

I take it you didn't read my post? The H3 is far superior, from capability to comfort to overall quality. |

Re: My h2's done with
Man that was a close one. Hope every thing goes smooth with the new motor. Diesel is a damn good project i agree with that but time consuming and money consuming .

Re: My h2's done with
Get a complete engine from an auto recycling center. They take the cars apart properly and will sell you everything you need. You could get a complete 6.0L for less than 2 grand (complete with computer) and spend the other 5 grand on installation, aftermarket parts or gas!
