Hey guys am currently about to really get into overhauling my land rover series 2a ex-MoD 109.
First thing Im going to do is to the front axle.
Im planning on a Cost effective overhaul at the moment so whats your guys opinions on what I ought check and how far to go with the axle?
Ought I...
When I was younger ( 17) and new to land rovers I bought a brake overhaul set from Britpart lol, put the fronts on a year or so ago, bloody hard work, I had to get some fence wire with a long bar with some of those spring pullers from Frosts and whilst I pulled the spring / shoe a friend had to...
After months of searching to find a good set - aside from having to buy a complete set of headlights from Blanchards, my military headlight cowls have arrived!!
In good nick too, theyve come with the retaining rings also :-)
Ebay is good for things ever so often haha
Hi Guys,
I am putting the finishing touches to my rented garage ready to bring the 2a up and had a sort out of mi shed at the weekend.
YWhen I was younger someone gave me a seized diesel engine and told me it was a land rover engine.
Its a 12J so its later than my 1964 Series 2 haha...
Hi guys , I'm sorry if this is deemed hijacking a thread, but I think my question is related and will expand on the vast amount of knowledge quoted already.
Does the MAF sensor provide the ECM a percentage of the information it requires to adjust fuelling with regard to boost...
Second that, I bought a machine mart trolley jack for just over a £100 and it's lifted everything I've thrown at it , Mk3 mondeo , P38a, my 2a 109' and the whole front end of my mates 90's when his wheel nuts came loose lol
Construction Update :-)
Floor frame down and levelled, Euro pallets laid and ex bed frame flooring screwed down lol
Centre joist mounted with special fabricated brackets which will be used to support chain hoist in the future :-)
Just got my sealey tool catalogue through the post,
Good book.. Have noticed one thing though lol haha, almost every photo they use for examples has a land rover in it haha!!
Yea that's the conclusion I came to chrisy, thought if stood any chance of getting mine on the road I had to be proactive and build something because I really couldn't see a cheap unit coming up for rent in my area.
Or
Haynes: Refitting is the reverse sequence to removal.
Translation: But you swear in different places.
Haynes: Locate securing bolt.
Translation: Remember that worrying noise when you drove along the A38 last summer? That's where you'll find the securing bolt.
And (still laughing at this...
List of 'real' Haynes translations comes to mind haha
Haynes: One spanner rating (simple).
Translation: Your Mum could do this... so how did you manage to botch it up?
Lol
Don't worry I know someone who didn't think the oil light pressure switch mattered if it didn't work, next thing leg...
