Hi I have recently bought the remains of a 2 door RR. It is in a sad state, chassis is beyond repair as is most of the bodywork (all exterior panels missing, all interior anything missing, frames rotten and accident damaged). The engine and gearbox are long gone, so not a lot left really. On the...

Your'e not wrong - just slightly out of date, the law changed on 20/04/10 to allow all vehicles exept bikes to tow trailers up to 2.55m wide. (up from 2.3m) This had to be done to bring us in line with EU reulations, or the UK would have been fined. I only know about it because I bought a...

I might be a year or so out here, but I think S2 were made from 1959 - 61 then 2A from 61 - 71. In the last couple of years of 2A production the headlights were moved to the wings so the front panel is similar to the S3 (just the grill mountings were different) The S2 and 2A front panels...

I've got a 88 one - I assume it's the length that you need, it measures 42" front to back at the bottom and 44.5" at the top (they slope forwards, bottom to top) It's in serviceable condition and I'll not be using after a couple of weeks

Hi. I've got a battered truck cab you can have for nowt - all the glass is in it. I also have a really good S2 front panel - ideally I'd swap it for a 2A panel in same condition but open to offers

I have got a 2.25 SWB diesel and I have had it for over 16 years. During this time it has been used offroad for work and for play, it's been a daily driver/commuter and it's done some long trips (Barcelona bieng the furthest). I reckon Landy-ads has got it spot on. It's not the ideal motorway...

whereabouts in northants? I might be able to help by posting it, or holding it till billing - depends how quick you need it

I was looking for some light green recently and I found this:- index Nato Green on the bottom right - looks like a good price to me. Andy

I got mine off with an electric impact driver which I hired - I figured it was worth it because all 4 springs needed replacing - you'll need a strong socket to use with it, ordinary ones will break. It struggled with a couple of bolts (but I didn't) - I reckon an air driven impact wrench would...

I got one - in north Northamptonshire, ideally I'd swap it for a useable SWB series back door but if you haven't got one it's yours anyway if you can get it picked up - just pass the favour on and I'm sure it will work it's way back. will be gone for a while now, be back this evening

Hi. thanks for everyone's suggestions so far. First a confession:- I got my measurement wrong - I meant 1.5 cm NOT 1.5 inches - sorry :o Iv'e been away for a few days but I have taken some pictures now and attempted to add them to this post. As you will (hopefully) see it is currently...

Hi. Can anyone tell me whether all series 2 & 3 windscreens are the same height? The one on my 2A seems to be about an inch and a half too high, it's never been a problem as it's been fitted with a ragtop but as that rotted away years ago and I have a hardtop in the garden I need to do...

All sorted now I bought the correct cover plate for the job today - there's one that allows you to put a 9.5" clutch on a 2A box, it's a standard part, not an adaptor, no drilling - it just bolts on. Very simple job, I was just getting cheesed off cos the shops were shut and I wanted to get...

Thanks Oil Dripper. I'm sure that I have to use the release bearing that matches the gearbox, I'm not sure about the plates tho, I have measured them and there's only 1/4" difference in height (when layed flat). I read on another forum that someone had done this conversion and used an...

Thanks for everyone's comments. After reading the above advice and having a real close look at the parts I've got I can confirm that Landyboy and Davec are spot on - none of my new clutch bits will work with this conversion and the old 2A pressure plate needs a couple of new holes drilled for...

Thanks Landyboy - I'll try offering up the pressure plate in the daylight and let you know if there's any dowels in the way.

Thanks for that - good idea, so good that I had to go up the yard with a torch to try it and the splines fit.

Hello. I'm in the process of recommisioning my SWB 2A which I've had for 15 years (last used in 2002). I've got hold of a 5 mb diesel engine to replace the old, split, 3 mb, along with it came a new boxed 9.5" complete clutch set (for the S3 109 that the engine came from) - question is: can I...
