They are from me 👍

Yes the Foxwell is OBD2 compliant but you need the dedicated software for it to work correctly on the TD5. But you can also use it for obd2 compliant vehicle, if any of that makes any sense...... probably not!

Yep, its got drums on the rear.

Blimey they're not cheap.

Our Foxwell works OK for reading live data. Maybe it's not down on power, maybe you have massive oversized wheels and tyres and expecting too much. Remember its not OBD2 compliant.

I meant for the under powered comment.

Aha, my memory served me well. Many thanks.

Well, it would have been nice if he had mentioned the non start was fixed and I could have saved the 15 secs it took me to write my post.

I am thinking you will be needing to buy an appropriate scanning tool.

Alloys are going to be replaced by fake Wolf wheels. It's on a 1989 Ninety, whatever spline that is, will have to check.

Yep, but.. You need to make sure they match up with your age of half shafts (spline number) so don't just buy the exact ones linked to, as that may not be the right code. Getting the seal out of the rear axel isn't complex but it's not a 5 min...

Yes, 170NM (i've got the MOD document somewhere too).

Starter motor could also be full of mud disrupting the crank sensor reading for your non start problem. Mine was doing that.

These things? https://www.jgs4x4.co.uk/terrafirma-heavy-duty-drive-flange-for-defender-discovery-1-black-tf859/

From the depths of my memory I want to say it’s 170Nm but I will have a dig around my saved documents and check.

And the recommended torque is?

I'm thinking it might have been @tottot who could have mentioned it?

Don't know exactly but I know a hammer is involved. it's a 1989 Ninety.

Did I read that the Series metal cap can be used instead of the rubber/plastic ones?

Glad you said that.

A steel wheel nut is a steel wheel nut (IMHO) ... https://pablanchard.co.uk/Wheel-Nut-Late-2A-Onwards-90577473-RRD500010-NTC7396-*...

You might even have more than one problem, should have started with jumps leads on and cranking over fine.

My son is replacing his Freestyle wheels with some fake Wolf wheels so he needs some wheel nuts for steel wheels. I suggested Britpart blue bag nuts but he is under the impression they will not be up to scratch so what other options are out...

Hope you get it sorted. Go and say hi and stick up some photos, we all like photos.

Go and introduce yourself in the relevant section and tell us a bit about your Land Rover adventures. 2nd hand or reconditioned unit is the way forward. Pretty sure a D2 unit will fit, it's probably documented on here somewhere.

You are all wrong, you bunch of losers!

I did look at going but so far they have been on a Friday evening. The traffic from Stroud to Westbury would make it a difficult journey.

Here's a link to the new shock mounts ... https://yrmit.co.uk/product/rear-shock-absorber-top-mount-lr-defender-d1-rrc/ and another for the bolts and washers ...

Had a look as busy tommorow. There calendar is good. Waiting to see where the September meet is. Been to caffeine & machine a few times which is a good meeting point & the food is good https://www.teaonthetailgate.co.uk/

A-frame cross member looks a bit crusty, think you need to start saving up, maybe.
