    Funny diffs

    yea thats true although i did the fronts alone with 2 it would save time heavy though . the rear is a breeze get your gaskets for the diff and hubs and your ep90 pop some grease on the diff gasket. It will take an hour,if you have a break and a cuppa between diffs 1.5 hours ep90 in the...

    Gap in corner rear floor

    Hi i think they used range rover classic side floor panels,i think they are a bit bigger,probably because they needed to cut more metal out or fold up into the arch.dont think you should leave holes there unless you have no roof:).,didn't have those holes on my old disco. good luck

    Bleeding front prop again! Britpart so shouldn't be surprised

    years ago i asked for the cheapest prop shaft,it was fine but soon had to replace the uj's.the grease only went through to 2 of the joints!!!!!!in the uj's. get good ones like gkn if greased well,they will last years..

    Vibration at 40 upwards

    Hi if you look at your propshaft the fixed part of the shaft each end attaches to the uj's the fixed parts that look like a c at each end should line up if they don't thats the answer,they could be 180 degrees out of course,best to check on a flat surface>-<. when they removed the prop one end...

    Funny diffs

    Hi swapping the diffs isn't that bad the rear is easy you undo the hub nuts(the smaller nuts on the outer most part of the axle-near the metal cap) pull out both drive shafts and then you can undo the diff,after removing 4 prop bolts and swap the diffs<its heavy and is full of smelly ep90 oil...

    Drab green Yes or No??

    i did an old series 3 nato green,messy but did the job,i would stay with the silver,if the door bottoms are bitty and the other areas give it some check plate, nato green goes a lovely pale green after some weathering and one thing that was odd whenever i went offroad and scratched or scuffed...

    Cranking Handle

    got me out of trouble with my old series when starter failed. keep your thumb out,like when your offroad in a series(don't wrap it around the handle)if it kicks back it would break your thumb. turn slowly to find the compression point when the handle is lowest. pull up never push down(if you...
