Just a note on break lights. The Landrover lamps cost about £12.00 each which is still cheap. As mentioned in last post -the break lights were on which ever way the bulb was fitted. On closer inspection I found that the brass contacts where the bulb sits had stray copper bridging across making...

Just treated myself to 2 genuine land rover rear lamps. Well it is Christmas!!:o Sick of britpart melting and bulbs jumping out of holder:confused So fitted tem today. One worked fine but the other just lit the break filament:confused: Fitted bulb the correct way and was as careful as I could...

Does anyone have a second hand steering pump for my 1992 200tdi. They are a bit pricy new and just wondered if anyone had a spare I could buy. Any help appreciated.

Paddocks special offers for a polybush kit -they will do an ok price on springs and shocks too DC

Some interesting viewpoints here. My 1992 90 is my work car and family car driven every day of life and we all love it. As a side thought. I often think of those boys in the 2nd world war going up in their spitfires in all conditions. They were cramped,loud and cold. They were very basic...

Thanks for advice-I will check out and test this weekend cheers DC

just checked breather which is clear. I have been using britpart seals which could be the problem. The plastic hub cover is a bit worn could that really be the problem?? I will buy another platic cover and fit as they are so cheap. What make of seal should I buy??

just replaced seal in my rear hub (drum brakes) and it still leaks. Took special care to replace new seal right way round but it is not exactly obvious which is the correct way to fit. Any other reason why it should leak?? I have now replaced seal 3 times:confused:
