Just checked and I would say they are upside down. What a pea narse. I'll prime them before I put them back on aswell. Cheers for the answers everyone. As always landyzone has the answers. X

Never primed them I just put them on. I did look for instructions but there weren't any. Pretty sure they're the right way up but I'm doubting myself now. I'll check later.

Just fitted new shocks and springs all round. Terrafirma medium duty set. Back ones are lovely but after driving from home to work leaving her parked at work all day both front shocks have stopped damping and are bouncy as fook. Could it be a dodgy batch or have I been stupid and done something...

Fixed it. For Anyone that's interested... Somehow the clutch plate had popped a rivet which let the springs fall out between the clutch plate and pressure plate. It was a right mess and not sure how the thing was still driving. New clutch fitted in a record breaking 4 hours. Disco up on ramps...

Excuse my ignorance but I thought there is enough room by just dropping the gearbox off and moving it back. I think I'm gonna go with the new clutch kit and fork. Any recommendations on a make for the new clutch?

Just thinking could it be a flywheel problem? fitting a new clutch is a ball ache anyway could it be worth pulling the engine out at the same time in case it's not the clutch and I end up doing that anyway. Has anyone had this issue before cos I've certainly not.

I've got a fairly new slave cylinder on it and I realised that it pushes so far it pushes the rubber off which I guessed isn't normal but after checking everything else I'm stuck. What could be wrong with the pedal/master to cause this?

Evening all, Last week I started having issues with the clutch on my 300. When I push the clutch to the floor the gear starts grabbing again. If I lift the clutch half off it's ok. I can't change gear very easily but manage it just about with some careful clutch work. Had the gearbox off...

Maybe a stupid question but are you sure they're the right plugs. Correct spark gap?

Cheers for the advice guys. I took it out today and as always it was squeeling so as soon as i pulled up on the drive I got the jack out. Does seem as if its the caliper. The wheel feels smooth as you like bearing wise but something is definitely grabbing. Gonna give the calipers a good old...

Yeah that sounds exactly like what I did. I did wonder if it could be the caliper but how would it be intermittent?

Alreet, Ever since sorting out my leaky swivel ball with a new oil seal and bearings last week I've been having issues with hot hubs. I've changed wheel bearings more times than I can remember but I've never had to adjust them 4 times like I have on this Disco of mine. After I did the swivel...

Hi guys being abit special but I need a quick hand. Just took my hub off cos the bearing was squeeling having had them just done. The hub seal was chewed up. Got a new one but which way round does it go? Lip towards the hub bearing and c-shape to the car or the other way round? 96 disco 300tdi...

Yeah I had a good look at that and the how to guide from buster. I originally thought it could be that. However it doesnt budge when i've got some one jumping up and down on the back end and it only seems to do it in 1st although mainly i've noticed it clunks after i've either pulled up from a...

Afternoon all, Trying to locate the source of a good old fashioned clunk when pulling away at the moment. Have been having a right royal wiggle of all the joints, bushes etc with the breaker bar. Nothing seems to move all that much but the bushes on the axle end of the radius arms are either...

Put that stupid pivot ball through the clutch fork thingemy and then spent the rest of the day under the gearbox of an old 300 getting the fookin thing off to weld a huge piece of 5mm steel plate over the hole. Verdict....jobs a gudden but would rather have spent the day doing something else...

Let us know how you get on with it cos i might get involved if it could be free.

Evening all, With all the fuel prices going through the roof, i think it would be a good idea if we all helped each other out. Where is everyone buying their veg oil? and for how much? ....obviously for use of cooking not to put in your landy. cos that would be naughty.

Will it be a case of new pas pump or is there some way of knocking it back in "aka servicing it"

Hi guys, yesterday for some unknown reason my 300tdi started shredding auxiliary belts. I've had one on for about 20000 miles and when it went i thought fair enough maybe it was worn. so i put a new one on and within 10 miles it had shredded that one too. the belts didnt snap but shredded a...
