Right, ok it sounds like Im back to front! So negative puts the wheel further out, positive sits it in the arch. I was working the other way around. Unfortunately, it appears the wheels Ive been looking at will not fit in my arches. There is only approx 50mm outside the tyre to the arch...

Useful little diagram that Jack, cheers. So, Ive just been out and had a look. My standard rims are 5.50x16x33. So by that I assume they are -33mm offset on a 5.5" rim? I think Im interpreting your diagram in a different way to you though, as I see it the 13mm difference would push the rim...

Im looking at getting some more rims for one of my 110s. I see the standard offset on steels is -30mm. I have my eye on some of the 7 x 16" challenger wheels sold by 4x4tyres and they have -20mm. I assume my standard rims will be 5.5" or 6" wide. Can someone explain this offset to me, I...

I woulnt be throwing that amount of coin into it, thats for sure!

Cheers bud, sounds good for a starting point. In the past when Ive had MAFs go they have been on low power until revved hard and click back to full power. I have heard of them being reduced power higher revs but never thought that could be the issue. Lets hope it is, as it'll be less money...

Cheers, I'll try that before I do a swap then, I just assumed it wouldnt run well at all without the MAF?

Good info, never thought of that! I can try one off another td5 to check. If anyone has any other options in the mean time I'd love to hear them Cheers, Pete.

Think I'd start with a td5 defender and buy a box for it. It will be much less hassle, and probably cheaper too!

As title really, seems to splutter at high revs pulling hard in any gear. Runs great otherwise. Done search but cant find anything with my symptoms Not had the 110 too long so dont know how long its been like it, but ive swapped filter, ive also done egr removal and still the same...

Guess thats what I was trying to say, but you put it more directly! As it happens I live within a couple of miles of a main VOSA office and testing station, so our area is regularly hit with stops. Many are the multi agency ones also described. I have been pulled many times over the last few...

The DVLA call it "historic value" for a reason. If it doesnt resemble within reason, what its supposed to be, it shouldnt qualify. In their eyes anyhow. There are many hundreds of "historics" around the country that are on none relevant formats, but as its mainly a DVLA issue (avoiding the...

;)Thats a tad better than my jumbled version! Knew it was along those lines, just Ive slept a lot since I had dealings!:D

As I recall, from a few years back the point system was along these lines; The original vehicle has something like 10 points. I think around 7 or 8 have to be retained before a "q" is issued. Suprisingly there are no points awarded to body panels(or possibly one), so it can look how ever...

Not real sure:confused: One thing that has been put to me, is that the weight distribution is different on a 110 to a 130? Not sure myself, but unless anyone says different, Ill be going with your figures mate:cool: Many thanks:high5:

Cheers for looking but thats not the heavy duty figures. They should add up to 3.5tons. I,m after the figures that are usually on the VIN plate. Many thanks though.

Im currently going through the proceedure of the upgrading of my landy to 3499kg with DVLA and VOSA. One thing Im having trouble finding out though is the axle weights of the 110 3499kg. Just wondering if anyone happens to know these? Cheers, Pete.

Yeh, the 130 is an option for sure, possibly not just the volume available but stuff such as the weight distribution. IE, the 130 rear axle is further back onder the loadbed and would carry better, as the 110 tippers have a tendancy to put weight behind the rear axle and therefore overload the...

Here's the story. Looking for a 110 for tree surgery work. Will end up with tipper conversion if not already fitted. Been looking at anything agewise really but would like to keep final budget below £10k. This would include probably £3k for the tipper conversion. A couple of questions...

Too right, Im gonna start browsing LRO now to see if I can find a shop that will sell an all in one package type thingy, decat straight pipe and egr removal unless anyone can suggest a good priced place? Cheers all.

Cheers bud, thats just cleared it up for me. I thought it was the sump gas that was being put back through the egr! I'm gonna get some bits ordered! Cheers Pete.
