iv recently finished a full restoration of a series 3 CSW with a mate, so i will give it a go doing it myself, obviously on the series 3 it was as simply as it gets,a 10 minute job, after that taking up all my time for the last 2 years i find it easier to take it over the road nowadays,

that sound just the job mate, think i will have some fitted, its handy as i live across the road from an land rover garage. thanks. lee

its a 90 hard top, im more than willing to fit whatever it needs, just been looking at the terrafirma shocks and they all seem to have a 2" lift on them, dont want that, think there the original shocks and its done 70k, and when iv been in the farmers fields iv gone as slow as poss, maybe im...

that makes sense mate, did a google search yesterday and spent about 3 hours reading on a few land rover forums and some were saying springs and some were saying shocks, as its doing my head in i think i will just change them all for what it will cost, as it it its not making me enjoy my new...

hi chaps, iv recently bought a 2011 defender 90 and im noticing that when driving over anything less than a flat road that the rear end seems to be rock hard and bounces about all over the shop, its all the original suspension, i was wondering if there was anything i could do to make it all a...

thanks chaps, i tried turning the prop, probably a couple of inch twist either way, and the noise seems to come more from the center really,or more towards the front, but im not overly sure as i try not let it happen, but ill go for a run about later and see if i can pinpoint it. thnaks lee

hi all. iv just bought a defender 90, 2011 and when i change gear there is a clunking noise like something is banging underneath, if i change gear slowly and let the clutch up slowly its ok, but when pulling out of a junction or from a roundabout then there is the clunk, anyone any ideas what it...

hi, yes i got a new receiver but still no joy, and cant really try anything on that list as the key doesnt go in the door properly to be able to turn,

Hi all, i will set the scene, bought my current 2003 D2 20 months ago, when i bought it the remote central locking didnt work, having had a 300tdi before that it didnt bother me, however that was only used for shooting at the weekend, this one is my daily drive, so i looked into possible...

hi all, im after getting some new wheels and tryes for my s3 im re furbing, i want to keep it original as possible, i believe thet had 600 x 16 tyres and 5.0 wheels, then i was told later on they changed to the LWB 5.5 wheels, as mine is a 1982 SWB im unsure what to get, i was told today that...

exmoor dont do them, or have any idea who do, lr fasreners do the full set of nut and bolts for £680,:eek:

deep pockets indeed. just had a quote from LaSalle £920

thanks mate. lee

is it a good idea to get a landy parts manual? thanks. lee

no idea about time scale really, im in no rush though, have a good heater in the garage so hoping it wont be to cold during the coming months, as for driving it, i only drove it round the drive, as it was a 5 hour drive away when i bought it i had some one pick it up on a trailer.
