To get it back up the drive put it in 1st gear and drive it using the starter motor.

Thanks for that, 2 litres it is then. Many thanks, Ian.

The old landy has now got a hard top with side windows and the time has come to get rid of the camo paint, Im just going to brush and roller it but can anyone tell me if 2 litres will be enough to do it or will I need more ?

What still needs doing to get it through the MOT ?

I run an ex army 90 with a 2.5n/a diesel, standard diffs and 7.50x16 tyres and on the flat on a calm day it once reached 73 mph ( checked with sat nav ) I reckon it would top out about 75-76 but Im not prepared to push it that far to find out. Acceleration is very slow but on the flat it will...

Thanks again mate, at least now I can see roughly where everything is meant to go but I think I may get the same striker kit that you have as they are less prone to bursting open as the body flex'es when off road. Again many thanks for going to the trouble of taking the pictures for me, its...

Hi Vic, I seem to remember that there is only one alloy that might fit your back axle and I think it was called the "Firestyle" it was a copy of the "Freestyle" alloy used on more modern Land Rovers but I not 100% certain about this, try doing a search on here for it, you might get lucky.

Hi All, I have just bought a hardtop and safari door to replace my ragtop, question is can anyone take a few pictures of there hardtop brackets so I can see how they fit the two parts together. Also the hardtop comes with a windscreen fitted, is it easier to remove my own windscreen or the one...

Try confused.com I got my 90 n/a insured through Peoples Choice fully comp for 79 quid, I am an old fart though !

You dont happen to own a large dog do you !!!! try the sniff test.

Not sure but could be TD5 engined vehicles so grill would need to be further foward for longer engine. ( just a guess. )

The 2.5 n/a ( non turbo ) would be your best bet as it only develops 67 bhp and is the cheapest to insure.
