1 check yer breathers are clear(there the brass valves on top of the axle if the brass ball moves there fine. 2 if it still persists and you get oil leaking into your brake assembilly replace the rubber boot that goes onto the steel collar, to do this youl have to take the brake assembly off...

cant answer about height as standard but you can get tow hitch adjustable height brackets that will fix this. the other thing to not is that MoD sankes come with a nato hitch this is like a donut ring instead of the conventional tow unit so youl need to either fit a nato tow claw to yer free...

why does double sided tape sound crap? as long as you get the proper 3m double sided foam designed for applying number plates and both surfaces are completely flat you will be fine. ive used it to fix a number plate onto my mini, better than drilling holes in the number plate or car which will...

mate i had the same problem with my series 2 in the end it turned out that the pad return springs wernt up to the job, probably original. got some new ones and it still did it, turns out the guy had fitted them before us had fitted them wrong i then copied how they came off when refitting, make...

d3s and d4 have 2 chassis a lader chassis like a defender and a monocouque like a normal car. these are then bolted together. i dont know about the rangie but it does not have the same monocouque chassis as the d4 and d3 as youd be able to see a similarity between the door pillars and...

iff you want good guns on a low budget look up bsa (lightning) and gamo(big cat) {both around 250}.youl have to get snap barrels if you want to spend little and get good accuracy and power. i had a smk b2 cheap as chips at 45 quids and brill for the price but i think the smk qb78 is only a...

on the rust front i have a classic mini. when im on the mini forum i see some amazing feats from people who dont want to shell out for panels so make there own generally stuff like boot floors, inner arches, floor plans non external panels so patching a square box section chassis is no probs...

what vehicles are they for surely if its a defender and a disco or something like that you could try and make some adapters so you have a winch bumper with a winch bolted on, that fits all the vehicles. would look allot more professional that just a bolt in plate, might take a bit of fabricating.

hi and welcome to landyzone, good to se yer based in cardiff, i myself am based in penarth so not to far away. i cant help with the question but try asking again in more specific sections of the forum that way youl get the best info and no one will get angry at you for posting in the wrong...

depends what the engines like in there at the mo. if you could give a bit of info like what your using the landy for and stuff like that, the 2.25 is easier to maintain but the 200tdi is still relatively simples in comparison to other defender engines. if the 2.25 is running fine at the mo or...

ive traveld to france a few times in a d3 and its as comfortable as anything, its also safe and as its still a fairly rugged car inside so compared to merc and bmw 4x4s itll cope with a bashing. i dont know what your budget is and what age defender your going for but they are not that...

Have adjusted MC push rod and the brakes are working fine. Thanks for your comments

its called an austin gypsie they were a bit of a copy for the landrover they didnt last as well as the landrovers though and they were much less common.

Many thanks for comments and advice, I will keep tinkering.

I have rebuilt the brakes on my 1960 S11. New drums, shoes, pipes, MC and 1 new wheel cylinder. We have bleed the brakes and they work. Initially, the pedal bite was almost on the floor. We have now done about 100miles. When in use the front drums get very hot and the peddle pressure gets...

me and my mates travel in convoy every now and the and its great if your trying to get pictures of each others cars and stuff like that.

havent slept in my landy although i did spend a ****ed night on the back seats of my classic mini last year.

it had a complete resto about 20 years ago, it was then driven for about 4-5 years and for the last 15 its been dry stored and not driven so the swivels are fine. i went out and looked at them properly tonight and i tightened the plates around the seals so il see how that goes. its only one...

As the title says really ive got a 1959 series 2 and every time it try and move it it floods oil all over my drive from the swivel hubs. would it be possible to empty the oil out and fill them with grease. or is it not so simple. cheers in advance.

about a year or 2 to late for this. i got a mini for my first car in september 2010 500quid first year car 1850quid. second year 750. youd be lucky to get a sub 1500 quote for a first year and the same to find a taxed and tested mini sub 1750.
