Salvage Yards or complanies that sell used parts

Hi All, does anyone know good sources of used parts for 90's in Scotland , i have found gem4x4 in larbert , anyone used them before?
Also u-pull-it is a salvage yard not to far from me in fife but they rarely get landrovers in but lots of rrs and disco's , are any
parts interchangeable between models?

Gem have a good reputation, the owner is well known in in the SLROC.

I think RR and Discos are landrovers.

I should have said are any RR and Disco parts interchangeable with any 90 parts?

 

[Galladog]

As far as I am aware the axles, engine, gearbox, transfer box and steering box.

Engine 710 are in S Queensferry but I'm not sure if they break LR's, worth a phone call seeing as it's so close to you.

Yes , I know engine 710 , they have nice stock but out of my price range

There is a breakers in Bellshill that seems to have defenders now and again, but it’s not their specialty. I’ve found just getting on the phone and internet the best route for spares. EBay, Gumtree etc. Thomsons in Galashiels break a huge selection of vehicles and are always worth a call, and they do delivery.

Gem4x4 are quite a good firm. I met the owner when he was over on my desolate rock with SLROC a couple of years back and he was a knowledgeable fella

I'm sure they go every year.

Different destinations each year. They went to Harris this year I took the club through my bit when they were here so they could get a run round the Wilks estate.

I think there was about 35 land rovers as our local club joined them for the day
This was the line up at the Laggan river
