    I have a little Kangaroo under the bonnet

    It doesnt seem to be down on power, its just on a certain steep hill if you cruise up there at a constant 20mph in 2nd or 30 in 3rd (not with foot to floor) it creates this wierd little power on off on off on off surge :confused:

    I have a little Kangaroo under the bonnet

    TBH I haven't noticed it being down on power at all....Ive thought it goes quite well considering I have 33" tyres on. Hauled an old disco to scrap yard Saturday and seemed to tow it well. Its currently on 162k, previous owner claims it was serviced at 160k. I suppose a new lift pump and...

    Landrover 15' weller rims

    I don't suppose you can find the offset and send me a pic of that? As 9j would be much better than the 7j set I've just bought

    Shipping Container as a Workshop?

    From op's question, for less than the cost of a shipping container you could buy the timber/ zinc you need and knock together your own makeshift shed. Be wider and taller than a container too. But thats if you have the spare time too

    Pic request - Blue 90 pickups on white weller wheels

    Obviously an inch, i mean cosmetically, also handling-wise? I thought the wellers would be lighter than the modulars?

    Pic request - Blue 90 pickups on white weller wheels

    Cheers all. Cant decide whether to get my black mods powder coated white, or get a set of white wellers..Bedspring, liking that lots :) My modulars are 15x8j, the only wellers I've seen are 15x7, cant see that making any difference?

    Hi buscuits You mentioned a secret switch which stopped the pikeys getting the landy started...

    Hi buscuits You mentioned a secret switch which stopped the pikeys getting the landy started - is this just a simple switch to stop power to the ignition barrel? Cheers

    I have a legit question - those who had trackers fitted, did you get the landy back? (Or trace it in the process of being stolen?)
