Try the many stickies at the top of the page. ;)
I just use maps, like I have done since the 80s, some like gps etc. Your choice. Check with county council for TROs, and recce on foot first, unless very experienced! :)
 
I'd like to start green laning, wondered if you found anything in the derby/Notts area? Still finishing my 90 off but disco is a goer!

Not at the moment mate. I'm off the road to at the min as I'm doing the timing belt and fitting disco 1 seats. I'm hoping to be out soon!

I wish that was all my 90 needed :D that's one of the many long list.
Did you find much before it was laid up or no luck? There's the brickyard near Hucknall but more just messing around than green laning.
I'm hoping to find some south near me haha :rolleyes:

Haha not quite the same! :p:D
What are you running? I've got a disco I'm using as driver and a 90 I'm doing up but but think I'll be too scared to hurt the 90 after all this effort to use it for laning! :D
Knowing me I'll get lost on the roads beforehand then be okay in the country :rolleyes:
 
i have a 300Tdi 110.

have a look at what I'm up to on here https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/hello-and-here-is-me-landy.314169/

do you have a build page?
She's a beaut! Looks in abit better nick than mine at the moment :D
Did you fit a wading kit aswell as snorkel? For axel,gearbox breathers fuel tank etc?
I'm trying to put the normal air cleaner system in but struggling to find bits. Did you seal up the dump valves too? I hear the actual case welds on the filter is crap too and needs a seal up unless get a wolf one. Probably be cheaper for me to put snorkel on than get origional bits o_O
Not sure if the url works keeps looking odd when paste in threads called 90 rebuildrebuild courtesy of auto correct though :rolleyes:
Your list keep getting bigger the more you look at it like mine? :eek:

I have sealed up a one way breather valve on the air cleaner if thats what you are referring to?

I'm tempted to get a breather kit for front of timing case just for a plate to cover compressor pull hole. To be fair I need to do timing anyway so I'll probably just make a plate when got cover off
There's 2 water/debris release valves if it's the standard cleaner assembly, one on the cleaner itself the lil rubber bung like on back of a fridge and a second that looks like a T joint for plumbing waste pipe before the air cleaner. As I've found out trying to see what I need since mine had nada haha
