when i centralize the box the arm does face forward, the drop arm can only go on the box in one position it is when i connect it up to the drag link that all is ff fed. The steering was working fine before i went offroading.

they are easy to fit. Do you have speakers already fitted ? is ther power cables there already ? The factory fit for speakers are pointing at your knee on the lower dash, you buy the plinths from landrover there abbout £3 including vat and i fitted aftermarket speakers. The live, swithched...

I have some problems with my steering. A few weeks ago i was offroading and while i was there for some reason i was able to turn the steering wheel 3 turns to the left and only 1 to the right. First thing i checked when i got home was the drag link length and TRE's all were OK So assuming i...

I used a bit of 25mm x 6mm Flat bar and a couple of stainless steel M10 nuts and bolts to hold them in place. Cheaper than paddocks heavy duty retainers, i got mine for free from work :D

12.6 is low. Cant you sit in the drivers seat and look at the mulitmeter ont the passanger seat ?? I get 14.1 volts on idle

I t is normall to have to give a diesel a slight rev to get the warnign light out. All it is doing is exciting the alternator and making it produce its on electricity instead of drawing from the battery

you can get a copper kunifer mixed pipe its a bit dearer not sure if it will last any longer

sounds like maybe the didoes are on there way out, or maybe the rectifier best check with a multimeter. I have had an alternator pumping out just over 14volts but the warnign light still glowed. It was a fault diode i just replaced with a OE alternator for about £100

once it is in that condition, no matter how well you clean it up, etch prime,prime and then top coat and clear it will bubble through in no time. Best to use a black metal paint and paint both of them, at least they will be easy to touch up in the future

Open the expansion tank and rev the engine quiet hard, if the pump is working you will see the water being pumped in. simples. Might be a faulty sender for the temp. Why not run a length of wire from the battery neg to the gauge and see if thats any better at least that will rule out an earth...

It all depends on who's testing, normally a cracked headlight is a fail. Oil leaks aren't an issue unless there leaking on to breaks or are safety related. The wobble could be worn bushes if you have no play on the bearings. Have you adjusted/ checked the preload on the swivels ? Ideally the...

check the battery with the multimeter you are looking for 13.6v to 14.4 v. Forget what the gauges are reading(they might be faulty) check with the multimeter. Even with all of the electrivcs on lights,heater etc you should still be over 13.6 volts

Its a chance you take with second hand anythings, As long as theres no damage to the fins, no movement on the splines it should last a long time.

Any metal paint will do just treat or rub back the rust, All internal crevices should be waxoyled .

Just under 190K 98 300 TDI 90, no smoke on start up and runs great, And only one patch on the chassis where i ripped a bracket off and of course a rear cross member :D

i kept the fold up steps when i traded in my old 89 110CSW, when i went to fit them to my 98 300TDI 90 they wouldnt go on because of the fuel tank, Thankfully i never botherd making them fit as they would have been well ripped off when i go offroading. I just have a heavy set of tree sliders...

I fitted the front callipers last night (britpart ones) and strangely enough they linned up perfectly. No problems at all getting the mounting bolts in or the brake pads in. Now i have to wait and see how long they last

They have to go along the side of the chassis at the front as the power steering pipes etc ar in the way so i used tie wraps there. I then ran them along the top of the front chassis leg then they had to go on the side again as the passed the bulkhead and into the battery box. The problem...

I have a seat in the rear of my 90. I added it myself and fitted the seat belt (lap belt). I have 50 mm x 6mm bar as spreader plates for the seat and the belts( got the MOT man to check it before use as well). Insuring it wasnt a problem, as the insurance company have the fine print basically...

I find paddocks not to badly priced for radiators. A few years ago i needed a heater matrix for an Escort van, i google'd it and the company i used was as cheap as chips, next day delivery before 10 am and well packaged. So try your friend google
