been trying to get my dad's D2 running the last while and having some issues! Fitted a new clutch and then when doing a few other bits I noticed the intake housing of the turbotechnics VNT I had on it was cracking. Ordered a new CR turbos VNT so was waiting a few weeks for that. When fitted...

Have a 130 project that a few people are interested in. Not really sure what it's worth. Chassis is very good solid and just needs cleaning down and painting. Bulkhead is reasonably solid apart from some rot on the top of the passenger footwell. Roof has a few dents Bodywork needs work. Rear...

Selling my 110, "Bumblebee" as its become to be called by friendsas have bought a 130 recently instead. Previously owned by ESB (Irish electricity board) and have owned it for the last 4 years (last picture is of how I initially got it and others are at various times while I've had it so some...

Lockers and axles Currently on my 110 have a Salisbury rear axle with detroit locker and front detroit tru-trac. Building an 130 next and not sure if I'll just use the axles from the 110 or go with air lockers and stick with the Rover short nose P38 style rear axle. Thinking of air lockers as...

Planning on fitting a rear winch to a 130 but idea is to change build it into the cross member and also a receiver hitch mount and possibly a swing away rear carrier. Being a 130, I can bring the end of the winch mount etc out abit and still not protude beyond the tub. Will help protect the tub...

Odd TD5 fueling issue. Neighbours 110 stopped one day a few weeks ago and was showing up failed injectors. Changed the injectors and the fuel pump was dead. New VDO fuel pump and it runs fine most of the time and will tick over on the driveway fine but if drive, after about 3 miles, it'll feel...

A few months ago, I saw somewhere that did a kit for fitting the bmw M57 (330/530d) engine into a Defender. Kit had mounts and gearbox salter plates etc. Cant remember the life of me who it was though so wondering does anybody know on here? Thinking of going for a 535d swap on my new Defender...

Going getting a pair of lockers for my 110 and not sure if I'll get air lockers or limited slip/atb type. already have a detroit tru-trac to fit to the front that was in my old 110 so could just fit that and ashcroft locker for the back or a detroit locker for the rear with a Salisbury axle...

Just wondering where does the nanocom get its boost pressure signal from? Mine has stopped reading it and just showing zero even though it's boosting fine on my mechanical gauge. Wondering which pin on the ecu does it get an output from or maybe I've a MAP sensor that's on the way out which...

Accidently shorted my the wires to my ciggerette charger yesterday and that died as well as the radio. Checked the fuses on the panel in front of the gearstick and they're fine but there's no 12 power to the fuse now either. Wondering is there a second fuse or a rely somwhere that gives power...

Sorted my TD5 after the injectors failed and blew my headgasket. Got them fully refurbed and he also put slightly larger nozzles on them given that my engine is tuned abit. Stuck them in, coded them and fired it up and it runs very nicely and really smooth in fairness. Only trouble is if it's...

Have a madman EMS2 I'm wiring up for coolant and fuel levels, temps and pressure and few other things as well as EGT. Trouble is the EGT probe fits the standard manifold nicely into the EGR blank but due to having an Alisport manifold on mine, I don't have anywhere to fit the probe unless I go...

Fitting an EMS2 to my 110 and want to monitor the fuel temp and pressure with it. Not sure if I can splice straight off the OE sensor for a reading to the Madman from that or fit an extra sensor with a T-piece. Anybody know what thread size the fuel temp sensor is to get one ordered rather than...

I already have the main rad and heater matrix hoses for my 110 but wondering, is there anywhere that does hoses for the pipes from the expansion bottle to fuel cooler and fuel cooler to rad and rad to oil cooler pipe. Or will it be just a case of lots of generic hoses and lots of joiners and...

Planning on fitting an Xtrons touchscreen headunit and was hoping to get a dash console from Eastcoastrover like in the pic but they won't ship stuff :( Anybody know if somebody else does them? although, have a good bit of their stuff and some parts are brilliant, Not really a fan of most...

Must get a new set of green injectors for my 110 so wondering does anybody know off hand a good place to get a set :)

Even though not overheating at all and no white smoke or of any colour for that matter, my Defender seems to be developing a slight airlock. At times, the heater blows cold and then hot again for a moment but think this might have been down to a slipping drive-belt or faulty tensioner as...
