    Loss of 12v supply

    Ive a bit of an unusual issue, well I think so. We’ve just done a chassis swap on my 1987, 90, Discovery 200tdi engine. Ive been doing the wiring, when the rear fog light was switched on, along with headlights all electric was lost! Nothing worked on the 90. This eventually corrected itself and...

    Heater cable controls

    Whilst doing the chassis swap on my 90 decided to tart up the bulkhead as its in pretty good condition. Refurbing the heater, ordered a new matrix and trying to find replacement cables for the controls. One has broken but I'm thinking change all 3 while it's easier to access them. Does anyone...

    Painting a Galv Chassis

    I'm having the chassis replaced on my '87 90 to a galv one. Ive ordered some Mordent T wash to etch the chassis but not sure what to paint it with. I want to loose the shiny look and add another layer of protection while I can get to everything. I was thinking of hammerite under body seal but...

    Accommodating a dog!

    We've just bought a Border Terrier pup and i'm working out how to fit him in the 90. It has no seats in the back and i don't want to install him in a cage, it takes up space and he won't get the 'thrill of the ride' I'm thinking of removing the cubby box between the front seats and making a box...

    My mate has a 2004 Freelander TD4 HSE. While driving it today it seems to have blown the turbo, smoked like a good un and no power. Any suggestions of a place around Gloucestershire where he can source a replacement?

    Dash Options

    Decided my dash needs updating and thought i'd splash out on a raptor one. Land Rover 90 with what i'm told is a TD5 bulkhead and a TD5 dash. It would seem raptor ones won't fit my dash (the large ones you can fit a CB/Radio etc in)but they do the same type of one that came out of it. So, does...

    I have a 1987 LR90, last December it had an advisory with 'Front Trailing arm has slight play in a pin/bush (2.4.G.2)' I've had a look on here and par for course (for me at least) i've failed to find a thread about replacing these! Does anyone know if one exists? Is this a job I can have a go at...

    Thread size!

    Just bought some Boost Alloys. Only problem is the rear wheel carrier bolts aren't long enough for the new wheel and the threads are also wrong for my locking wheel nut. Is the thread a standard size and if so what is it please?

    How hard can it be...

    ,,,to find some locking wheel nuts for Boost Alloys on my Defender? A couple of Ebay sites quote they don't fit Boosts, when I questioned one they said they think its something to do with the rim being narrower? I then found a set of 4 on devon 4x4, emailed them twice to confirm they are OK with...

    Wheel Compatability

    I have a 1987 90 with what I think are RR classics and 30mm spacers. Does anyone know if June 2014 90 Sationwagon boost alloys 16" would fit? Drums back and discs front if that makes a difference?

    Yet another spot light location question

    Just fitted winch and bumper to my 90 It originally had spot lights fitted to the A frame. Unfortunately the spots won't fit on the attached brackets due to the winch. I was thinking of getting a bracket welded to the top of the A frame to get a bit more height but this would possibly push the...
