I fitted one of these to my Defender recently, it's fantastic. Front and rear cameras/dashcams, reversing camera, music streaming, which improves sound quality a great deal, hands free phone and texting, reads texts out, and whatsapp messaging...
@Chalky. it’s a good to go collecting stakes at the end of the day. Happy you enjoyed it.
Good to see the youngster been out in an exciting environment.
You can get special kids motorsport licence from 13 to event in trials
Well just got home and met some very friendly people! What a great crowd, makes my 90 look and feel slow now! Drove the course at the end of the day with my boy in one of the vehicles, those v8's on song make the hair stand up on your neck!!!
Round 2 with the fuel lines today, got them both replaced after taking the wheel off, and another trip out to get some new pipe as I had some too big and some other too small.
In taking the wheel off I found a leaking wheel cylinder as well...
Corrected I am, pretty sure 89 One ten had the larger calipers but has been a long time.
My 1990 Ninety has the also has the large calipers now as well as bit larger tires than original 205's
@tottot my 85 110 V8 had the Small callipers on. As the motors were built the same time as RRC they used the small ones. Was better as all the pads were the same size. Then the disco came out and same again,small callipers on some of these.
I’m...
@kermit_rr been away from racing for a few years but these clubs are friendly & most drivers like others looking over the motors.
If you show your face often enough and help out you do get offers of a seat in racers. We used to do charity days...
They are the later large calipers…better than the small early type.
Now that confuses me.(later than your 87)
Unless some one has upgraded the callipers..
Normally these appeared from 300tdi on ward
Welcome.
Have you looked at some of the ex military type 130? You can easily convert the rears for farm/ARB chip
They are fun to drive but need some big parking spaces.
Enjoy
Used to race with staffs & shrops. Always fun club as they do inter clubs so there are plenty of motors to watch.
If not racing we would marshal in stupid places just for the action
Enjoy your day…
Hey guys, I don't know if anyone localish would be interested, but the Staff and Shrops Landrover club are running a Comp Safari today at Greenhall Farm in Llanfyllin, always a great crack as a spectator!
Only just found out so will be standing...
thanks for the reply! I already have all the brackets, but I just didn’t quite understand how to fit them. By chance I came a cross a YouTube video of a RR which cleared everything up.
In my opinion these schematics are a bit confusing though as...
Replaced the front springs on the lads 90, fuel filter, air filter and one of the radius arm rear bushes.... also replaced the auxiliary belt as it was tearing up....
Found grease/oil leaking onto the rear o/s brakes, so looks like a new seal...
So I decided it was fuel line replacement day... yeah, maybe a little overdue as this is the rear section of return line, dated 2015!
I replaced that fine, and then I went for the feed line which is even older... got that off but I'm yet...
Nothing too exciting just did a big service.
All oils and filters.
Engine oil, black but no bits or discolouration
Front diff had a little christmas tree and a bit silvery, too be expected from an ATB after 10k.
TX box clean as a whistle...
Previous days have been spent getting the axles ready to drop. Most bolts were tight but shifted with a little heat. One was subject to the slitting wheel for failure to cooperate.
Whilst poking around I took a look at the swivel housings and...
This reads like "I needed an excuse to go and take myself in hand whilst looking through the neighbours window, so l locked my fowl on their land whilst wifey is away".
Dirty old pervert, choking his chicken.
Phill, I believe it's the original distributor and amp from the look of it. Obviously it's had at least one new cap and leads in the last 36 years. This is the model with the amp on the side of the dizzy. I just put a new coil on it. Supposedly...
The wife was just looking through some old pics and came across this. These were both mine, 93 94 or there abouts. The 110 on the left I think is dead now but hoping someone still has the series 3 as its sorn. And just over the shoulder of the...
Just sorted the last item in prep for my 2 x holidays this year. Insurance. Company I used last year wanted over 400 sovs for an annual policy, a massive jump from last years premium. Got quotes from Co Gompare for this year, got suitable cover...
Morning All. :D
Today is my official lie-in day of the week, but as usual I am up first. :)
It gets to a point where my lower back is screaming "get off this bed NOW!"
I am carrying out a sperry-ment with the Mini. Just occasionally I get...
What coil & dizzy you using then?
Early 1s had an amplifier seperate to the dizzy. If these broke down that was the problem.
On later 1s there was a small amp on the dizzy body
If the above you have said with the electronics work I would do...
