No, but will check them tomorrow. It was dark by the time I got home and I needed a brew to settle my nerves. What sort of pressure should I run? I don't often carry a heavy load.

I've just spent a small fortune on my newly acquired Hi Cap, and just drove it back to Surrey, from Dorset where it was worked on. Among the issues that were addressed was the terrible steering - it had enormous play in it. It's much better now (still not brilliant), but boy does it fishtail at...

Nice nice. :)

I'd love to Captain! I have a friend who could do it so perhaps if I go down that route we can muck in together and get it done. Would certainly be an opportunity to learn a LOT about the truck. A also have a friend with a mop. Sorted. :D

The current owner has had it 6 years and has said the 2.5td is fine, but underpowered if carrying a heavy load. All the time it ain't broke, I'm not going to fix it, so I guess in time I could stick at 200tdi in it. But I won;t be doing it myslef!! I wish! Ha. I'll have a think. At the right...

I like things original. I don't have the time or money for concours, but if I did, I'd be all over it like a tramp on chips. Anyway, so an opportunity has come up to buy a very clean and tidy 1989 110 2 door. It's flat paint is in desperate need of a polish, but it's very clean and very...

Nothing more exciting than getting rid of my 300tdi in favour of a V8!! Actually, that is quite exciting... :) It's one of those things isn't it; your head says get a deisel, why wouldn't you. But when you actually stop and think about it, deisel isn't always the answer! I drive a deisel...

You have literally just picked it up haven't you?? Just seen the advert on gumtree, posted yesterday. Ker-ching!!

Ha, I feel like I almost asked a silly question!!

None unfortunately.

If covering only 1000-2000 miles per year, would you consider a 3.5 V8 over say a 2.5TD/300TDI? Got something up my sleeve!! ;)

Hunky.

Thanks for the offer but Chichester is just a bit too far from me. Thanks all the same. It's a 94 300tdi. Adam

Shame. :frown: Well I have an issue with a leaky fuel tank and a rear shock hanging off, but before I spend out on that, I want to establish if there's 'owt else wrong with it. If it's alright I'll start getting it ship shape. :cool:

Hi guys Before I spend any more time and money on my new (to me!) 110 truck, I need to establish if its a keeper. I'm looking for someone to take a look at it for me, and let me know what needs doing to it. Emphasis on the "need"!! You know what I mean; its an old Land Rover, not a Rolls Royce...

Well I have some rear arch spats on their way, along with a set of black modulars, with buckshot mudders. Will fit them all up when the truck is back from the docs and see how it looks. I'm concerned the spats will look like they're doing nothing, so may need to bring the wheels out a bit. We...

Ha, you obviously can't see the two buckets underneath catching the deisel! Nor the shock absorber hanging off!!!

So this is the one I bought last week, and this is it now I've given it a quick clean and stuck on a couple of bits n bobs!!

Really?? I saw this one and thought it looked awesome!!!

So as you all know, the high cap pickup doesnt usually come with rear arch extensions/spats. Well my one certainly hasnt got them, and I don't like it!! I've seen a much later defender in passing and that has them? Anyway, I know I can retrofit them, that's not my concern, but the question I...
