lol, no verticly - I can see the point about bigger surface area but that can work both ways - i.e. same weight spread over a bigger surface area is actually less friction. Just to clarify what I meant though, picture a steering guard, just a straightforward bit of 6mm steel plate (looking...

Should really be changing brake pipes but don't feel like it, I've got my eyes on a bit of 20mm angle! After an opinion first though - If I weld lengths of it verticly to my steering guard (the lower part of it), do you think it'll drag through the mud any easier? I found that it seemed to be...

Ah, fair point, I meant disco 1 - I know mine's got them - maybe disco 2s have the same.

lol, takes you guys a while to come to a conclusion! Just to stir things up even more though; have a look at where a standard front bumper bolts to the end of the chassis - is there not a 4"ish bit that looks like it's made to crush in the event of an accident? :D Luckily though, jate...

yes, I've seen them, they look good and I'll be getting some when I can afford to. The cheapest option aparently is to get the 3door ones and cut the rear pair so the doors can be opened. no pic's unfortunately, any idea where I can get a set cheap?

just had a look at Roych Clough on youtube, looks pretty brutal! Might have to bodge some rock sliders and diff guards up!

O.k, printed the second route and compared it to the original. It'll be 50% ish the same as the previous day's, they're both in the southern half of the peak district and some look like they could be good fun. Anyone got a suggestion for a good campsite near hathersage, hope or castleton...

Gonzo, you'll see it don't worry, no rush really though is there. Thanks for the heads up on the camp site, didn't have any prob's when I was there but things change. I'll get these bits sorted, any other problems / suggestions?

muddy g, you've already had one mate, there must be best part of 100miles in total. The second half's from johnlad, I've not really had a look at it yet. got nearly two months to finish it all off though....

Cheers for the support 90boy - Would feel bad about knocking it down to one group but that works out well for how many have shown an interest - SO, one group it is. Well, what's left then? We've got a date, we've got two routes, even a campsite. The rest (time, meeting place, cb channel and...

Update, now have the second route - thanks to johnlad (has it been checked, is it all legit mate?).

muddy g, Fair point which is why I said provisionally really - I didn't want to be going ahead with planning it if no-one was gonna come. O.k. For now I'll say last weekend of june 26th&27th but if too many people cant make that we'll re-think it between us. iirc, the campsite I'm thinking...

3 WIRE INJECTOR PUMP 300TDI - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum Just stumbled on this, might be worth a ganders..........

You've tried everything I can think of at the moment, They didn't fit a second stop solenoid specificly for the immobiliser did they? I'd be looking at immobiliser at this point. Have you got fuel right up to the injection pump? Sorry if I've missed something, why cant you turn the engine...

Johnlad; that's very good of you mate, yes please! At the moment, the only weekend I can't do in June is the first one, it'd help to leave this until late in the month because of funds but if needs be, it's not that big a problem. Can you guys post up when you can't go and we'll see what we can...

Yeah, sorry about that, it rained so I found something else to do- will get pic's asap though.

Thanks Paul, I'd guess there's a days worth there though so will need to sort some more for the second day, that's fine though, it's all part of the fun! :bored: You think your disco'll be in one piece by then? :kettlepot:

Quite a bit Retford way, get an o.s map or use one online and do some Reading up, easy really.

Just found a funny rubber cover on the back of my injector pump (300tdi) that I think should have a wire through it onto whatever it goes over but hasn't. Engine runs ok and stops so cant be stop solenoid, I've found a purple wire nearby that has been scotchlocked to another wire but I'd guess...

Cheers gonzo, you looked at that route yet (the second one)? Has anybody got a bulb holder for a front indicator on a disco 1 (1998 if it matters) they'd sell me please? it's either that or bodge tape the way it's going, unless anyone can tell me where to get one? Just made and fitted a...
