    Looks like the O/P has come, and gone. l hope he finds the Land Rover that he wants.

    Note Cruise control won't work with the O/D you need to fit a speedo healer.

    Is the a/c compressor running? not the belt spinning but the centre of the a/c pulley spinning. Most a/c is pretty simple, pressure switch sees pressure and allows the relay to send power to the a/c compressor, so a quick test would be to see if...

    "Ideally looking for legal routes" What other sort of routes would you be looking for, illegal ones?

    That’s so helpful, thankyou for sharing your knowledge.

    Luck of the draw I guess. The first bushes we fitted were Britpart poly bushes to the panard rod, failed in less than a week. Replaced with Britpart OEM and have been good since.

    Sounds mad for me but I do have blue bag panard poly bushes on mine. Could not get any others at the time. Do have super flex for for other bushes.

    Yes, don't tell them anything except know mods which you need to declare. My son's was £2.5k for a Ninety with a 200tdi conversion, mind you that was 10 years ago. Still agree £11k seems rather high.

    They are the correct bolts but failing that I'll have some spares kicking around somewhere. ill go have a look just now for some decent bushes, I'm not bothered about whether or not they're poly but hopefully there's a bit less to go wrong with...

    I have used Britpart oem with no problem. Since you have now learned a valuable lesson you would do well to replace your other aftermarket with oem. You can buy a kit for not a great deal of money.

    If you fit polybushes then buy good ones, cheaper ones are crap. Not all bolts are the same, some are metric some are not.
  • the_wolf
    They were aftermarket. After the first ones failed I went back to the seller and he sent me what to took to be some decent aftermarket ones. Clearly not. I either go for oem metalastic bushes or poly
  • A
    That's a problem for sure. Do them up as tight as possible and see what happens. What bushes did you fit, random aftermarket, oem or genuine?
  • the_wolf
    The bolts are correct panhard rod bolts but even tightening it up to 110nm made no difference. It was already ft as they were only supposed to be 88nm. I took the rod off and there's a tiny bit of slack when the bolt goes through the bottom bush...

    Did you tell the insurance bods that you had fitted new brakes, suspension, chassis etc ? If so, try again without saying anything about new parts you have fitted.... it's a "standard" Landrover 90 Defender.
  • H
    That’s a lot of play. Really tighten them bolts first. You can’t over tighten them as the metal center won’t allow this. If the above fails…. Take off panard rod off and check mounting holes. Check bolts are the correct size for the bushes. If...

    Holy necro thread! Does anyone actually know where the power for C594 is drawn from? is it a direct connection to the battery? I want to hoover ~15A peak out of it to power a VHF radio but I don't want to melt the wiring or blow something up. I...

    Do you have a link, I have the early 110 split doors on my station wagon front and back. I have military door cards on the front but cannot find any door cards for the rear.

    Hi there, I’m looking for some good green lanes or BOATs around the [Liverpool/North West] area for some off-road fun in my 4x4. Ideally looking for legal routes with a mix of scenery and a bit of challenge — nothing too extreme. If you’ve...

    Temp gauges are relatively simple things, they are reading a resistance derrived from a thermistor that gets lower in resistance as it gets hotter. There is a single wire to the 'sensor' which is effectively grounded through the sensor/thermistor...

    Photo taken from another post in this group. I see a Disco II key & a Rover key. The difference I see is the extra yellow chip box. Please advise / explain what’s the difference in use or how it’s different when it’s being used. Thanks.

    Welp. I replaced the brake booster and it's worse... Now the first 7/8th of the pedal has no resistance and it won't build pressure, I tried to adjust what looks like an adjuster screw in the brake booster but it has not worked, when the engine...
