THE COMFORTS OF EXARING

"IN THE REAR PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, RYNO TOOK OUT THE DISCOVERY'S REAR SEATS AND ADDED A CUSTOM DOG ENCLOSURE, COMPLETE WITH CARGO BARRIERS, WINDOW GUARDS, AND A BUILT-IN WINDOW FAN FOR HIS K9 COMPANION.

Taking out your off-road vehicle for a day trip can only be topped by one thing—taking it out for a multi-day adventure. For Ryan “Ryno” Lieberman, owner of Ryno Built Rod & Custom in Carl Junction, Missouri, taking his vehicles on long weekends and vacations near and far are what dreams are made of. But to get to places where not everyone can reach, he needed a capable vehicle with plenty of on-board amenities to make the trip enjoyable and stress free. That’s why he built his 1998 Land Rover Discovery 1 to be the ultimate off-road getaway vehicle.

Built for the Unbeaten Path 

Land Rover’s Discovery platform has long been marketed as a true off-road capable family vehicle, offering plenty of passenger and cargo room, along with more off-road geared suspension systems and wheel and tire packages. But every good thing can be made better, which is exactly what Ryno did to his Land Rover.

Powering the Discovery is the Rover’s factory 4.0L V-8 engine rebuilt by ReRover, which features reconditioned connecting rods, aftermarket pistons, and a “spicy” camshaft, according to Ryno. The engine was also fitted with a 2.5-inch two-into-one exhaust system from Wyland Muffler, as well as a snorkel for adventures that take the Discovery through deeper water.
