I'm after a brake pipe flaring tool and have a choice of 2. A vice mounted SP 270 or the flaremaster 2. FLAREMASTER It's just for home use, I used to use a 270 on a regular basis when I worked in the trade but the flaremaster looks to be amore versatile tool. Especially as I don't have a...

Cool, cheers guys :5bcheers2:

I've had a fair few tdi's but have never got round to adjusting the valve clearances as I've never had the vehicles that long. Do you bother checking /adjusting them as per old pushrod petrol motors or do you just leave well alone? I assume if they need adjusting thats because the go out of...

After enquiring on here about britpart supergaz shocks and HD springs and the favourable advice from Paul D I ordered the kit from paddocks the other week before my hols. I got back on Monday and fitted the kit that afternoon. Wow!!! My old disco is transformed from a wobbly box into a decent...

Cheers for that Paul. Have you got the name of a retailer for the terra firma springs? I can't find any reference to them on the web. I'm replacing the shocks and springs because they are fecked (read uber wallowy!) and would like something that will give a better ride on the road. At the end of...

My 92 Disco is still on it's original suspension which seems rather tired. I'm looking at replacing the shocks and springs with a britpart standard height HD kit with the super gaz shocks. Has anybody used them? Are they much of an improvement over OE stuff? It's used mainly on-road with a bit...

Ahaaaa, Ta very muchly, I shall investigat forthwith :)

Waxoyl can and does go hard and brittle. Thin it down with a little CLEAN engine oil and leave the tin in the airing cupboard for a couple of house to make it easier to apply. The engine oil will make it more elastic/greasy. You shouldn't use old engine oil because it is actually mildly...

I've just got a 200tdi disco and have discovered the rear door (boot or tailgate I suppose it is) will only open by turning and holding the door key in the "unlock" position whilst working the door release handle at the same time. If I just unlock it and then try to open it, the little plastic...

Cheers Mintcherrie, you're a star.

Does anyone have a phone number for TLC landrover services at Stockton? I can't find it anywhere? TIA:)

Hi folks, Just thought I'd post few lines to introduce myself. I've been a landy fan for a good few years now (since before I past my test, 11 years ago) and have susequently owned a few series vehicles and 90's. After a couple of years of being "clean" the addiction is starting to bite again...
