Hello - still can't seem to upload photos so I can't show you Betsy - but she is a 1970 2a.... I am just getting her read for her MOT and was sorting out an issue with the lights when i cast my eyes down to the front cross member. Where the steering whatsit passes through the chassis the side...

First thing I purchase after the Landy was a five ltr jerry can........

Body work in good order - will need to do the rear springs at some point but it's a job I was expecting and am looking forward to doing!

Heres the best description I can give. Started to drive home on Subnday - went up through the gears. No abnormal noise. When in fourth grinding noise started. Pulled over asap. Took her out of gear - still noise. Push clutch in - noise stopped. Selected Low range and then high range again in...

The man for landrovers (The Thatched Garage).

All bets are off - the list of whats ****ed is too long and painful to remember - boils down to "gear box ****ed"....... Arse - don't know what to do now!

Yep -second gear is quiet for some reason. Hope it is the overdrive as I can get rid of it! Will def be asking for a bit of cash back.. Plan was to replace seats , replace suspension then save up for recon gearbox and new clutch......

Not this - tight as a drum... Taken her to a local dealer - will know more on Tuesday.. Fingers crossed it's the overdrive as he suspected. If it's gone it will be time to see how good the dealer's reputation is....

Morning, If it is the mainshaft how could I tell and what can i do to put it back in! Thanks...

Oh and thanks for helping !

Arse - not something I could do my-self. I hope it's not too expensive.... Time to find an independent land rover guy or small garage near Tunbridge Wells...

Up date - just taken the inspection plate off the top of the transfer box (plenty of oil - no missing teeth) and noticed that the hand break drum is jerking in time to the grinding so the problem is there - hoping it's just knocked out of alignment or not in marrying up. James - "brgs" - sorry...

Help! Bought my series 2a on Friday , drove her home 260 miles without issue. Not even had chance to put photos on here. Today went to come back the 6 miles from showing her off to a mate and the noise from the gear box is horrendous. I can select 1/2/3/4/r in high and low range and she will...

Just spoken to this lot Pegasus Parts based in Dorking, Surrey and they are looking at doing full length top rails by November/December of this year if you can wait.....

Hi Mucky, I'm probably going to have to do the same to mine at some point - if you get any joy in locating the top rail could you let me know? Are you taking the bulk head off to do this or are you doing it in situ? Cheers, Simon

ok phots not worked - will check the FAQ and see where I went wrong!

Finally bought my first series 3 - after several false starts, a couple of near misses and a lot of rusty tat here it is: More photos to follow as I pick it up on Friday of this week. It's not perfect chequer plate , small amount of rust/pitting in the tub and a bit of rust below the wind...

Bought in the summer - told to top up/change anti freeze for the winter but didn't bother.

It was built as a petrol I would like to keep it orig + for the sort of distances I'm looking at it won't be an issue + smooth petrol or lumpy diesel?
