Thank you that has been mentioned to me that it might be the cause

Hi tottot all of them, I say that haven't tried going down hill in 1st but definitely 2nd 3rd and 4th

Hi Guys I've just put a newly built reconditioned gearbox back into the series 3, everything was going fine on the first test drive until I go down a hill, it seems to jump out of gear, now this happens on all gears, have I done something wrong? Was thinking the main shaft castlelated nut might...

I've a 1977 series 3 with a 200di engine and tax exempt, I contacted dvla and was told it was fine as it was still a land rover derived engine so its still tax and mot exempt, if you go to any of the series 200/300 tdi Facebook pages they have loads of members with tax/Mot exempt members most of...

I think 4x4 tyres do both kinds et0 and et20 paddock just do the et20

Personally I like the the deeper dished ones they fill the arches on a Series 3 better

Try the link below they have different offsets Et0 and Et 20 I think https://www.4x4tyres.co.uk/16-x-65-tuff-torque-wolf-style-wheel-black-et0_s1651650hdutblk

hi all anyone know what brake uinion sizes are used on the below master cylinder its for a early 90 but im using it on a series 3 88 that ive converted to front disc brakes, it fits straight on the series 3 servo but im not sure what the sizes of the unions will be. Also does anyone know which...

There are two types of 109 brakes they are both tls and 11 Inch one though is I think 3" wide that is used on the 6 cylinder engine and V8 models the other is 2 inch wide and used on the 4 cylinder engines I wondered if the brake back plates are the same but now I think not as when you look at...

Hi everyone do any of you know if the 109 4 cylinder front back plates and the 109 6 cylinder / V8 back plates are the same and its just the slave cylinders that are different? I have a set that I think has come off a 109 v8 and I want to use them to upgrade my 88 front brakes so I want to use...

what a good calculator mine has come out at 2563 rpm at 60 without overdrive and 2000 rpm with it says the ideal target RPM is 2,700 revs at 70 mph in top gear mine at 70 would be 2990 rpm without over drive and 2332 rpm with but as you say Rob depends what engine you have as well ive added the...

ImI getting about 35 mpg but as I say thats around the village it doesn't take long to warm up though about mile and a half i had to put a extra vdo gauge though with sender as no matter what I did couldn't get a true temp read.yes I'll leave the overdrive in for a while and I'll report back...

Mines got a 200 di fitted as well and has the overdrive but im taking it out for the same reasons as you also im hoping it lets me use first gear more rather than pulling of in second, what size tyres you running ?

Did you notice a difference when you upgraded your diffs nick?

All part of the fun of owning a land rover sseries

Hi I have one from a rr classic with the filler in the housing. Im not to worried about the speedo as I live in a very small village and it is used around there mostly and across the fields with the odd trip into town saying that how far out will the speedo read

thanks Cornish think ill go with that setup

Hi all just about to put upgraded rr classic diffs in my series 3 one has been completely rebuild and the other is a good used unit, which one would you put in the front and which one in the back. my theory is because I have freewheeling hubs I'd put the used one in the front. what do you all...

Thanks but thats what i have now i want to free the load bed up and hang the rear wheel on the tail gate, I remember there being one like the swingaways but designed for the drop down tailgate
