    Discovery 1, Not the usual elec faults!

    Got a N reg 300tdi Disco that has electrical issues, but not like anything that has been seen before... This is not so much a cry for help as I will figure it out and get it sorted but I thought it might be useful to share my findings and discuss with others as this might help some one...

    Front spring seats on the rear.

    Is it ok to use front lower spring seats on the rear? The obvious difference is that they have the hole in the centre for the shock to go through but are there any other important differences? I want galvanised ones and it seems they only come as NRC9700G, which is the front ones, but some...

    A/F and Imperial and spanners for ye olde Land Rovers

    Very much looking at doing some Series and old tractor rebuilds/restorations and also up grading stuff in the garage too, so what spanners and sockets am I likely to need? I've never really understood the difference between A/F and Imperial and Google searches always try to give me a history...

    All I wanted to do was Paint the Rear Cross Member!

    Rear cross member needed a rub down and coat of paint, which turned in to a few patches welding on, so in to the garage it goes.... Then things kind of snowballed from there really.... So I guess this is going to be a restoration thread.... on a 1996!

    Finally got another Land Rover!

    I was happily saving up for a galv chassis for my Defender when almost all at the same time the Missus' car packs in (and she does a lot of driving for her job, no vehicle = no work), we get word that snow is on the way and my mate phones to say he's selling everything, including his Discovery...

    Battery related musings and drivel....

    I post this here as I think it will serve handy for many at some point when they want to spend much more time than is healthy thinking about the many ways to put 1 or more batteries in a Land Rover. (and yes I have used the search function and it wasn't any help) Why do I find that my own...

    The Plastic bag over the Snorkle thing...

    Just come from my friend's house, who has a 300tdi with a Safari Snorkle. We were discussing wading and what not, and I piped up with 'have you tested your snorkle is air tight?' to which he asked 'how do I do that?' So I proceded to explain the 'placing a plastic bag over the grill while the...

    Roof racks and weight and stuff

    Couldn't find what i was looking for in a search so: What would be concidered an acceptable weight for a roof rack before it starts to affect the centre of gravity and weight distribution to the point where it is no longer safe to do any decent high siding or climbing? The vehicle is a...

    Handles for the laydeez?

    My Landy is kinda high and I plan on making it higher, my fiancee has trouble climbing in as it is! This got me thinking: some cleverly positioned handles and/or straps may solve this. Anyone got any views or experiance on this?

    Hard to find bullbar

    Does anyone know anything about the bullbar on the Defender at the top of this page: Paddock Spares - Land Rover, Range Rover Parts & Accessories - Discovery, Defender and Freelander ... It is exactly the style I want (beefy A-bar with light guards and curve around wings) but I can't find one...
