    Land Rover 90 rear door

    Hi Jim, door came in black primer. I rubbed it down and undercoated and bronze green from paint man. They sell a lot of parts for the landrover and all types of paint. I used coachwork enamel and used a brush and a roller. You wouldn’t know to look at it. I used the window from my old door which...

    P38A Weird antenna

    As Devonguy says it’s a cb mount ready to go. If you decide to keep the aerial then thunderpole will sort you out. New beehive mount and aerial your good to go…and get an old Amstrad cb901. Good radio set.

    Land Rover 90 rear door

    Hi. As above you should have 3 hinges. What the lads have said is bang on. I can recommend paint man panels for your door when you come to buy. Replaced mine from them and I thought it was great workmanship and a good price. They sell it without the holes for the spare wheel carrier. Frame is...

    200 TDI Clutch release bearing

    Naand Meneer, is the forks bent. It looks like it has only been pushing on one side of the bearing. This has happened to one of my land rovers.

    Armstrong dampers available?

    Used the Britpart ones on my 90. They have done fine and my old 90 has had a hard life. Works ok.

    Shot-blasting steel wheels

    Yeah get it done mate. Just had my standard wheels on my 90 done. 25 years of muck n rust gettin horsed around a farm and I had them blasted and painted in olde English white. They were in a rough state but the blasting did its trick. After they were painted they look new. £50 quid a wheel. Well...

    What door card type do i need?

    H Hello Mate, I got my door card from recovery 4x4 on eBay for £80. Easy to fit to main frame. Made from abs plastic. They sell ones for different models but I’m sure the one I got would fit yours. One of the lads said metal one helps support the door which is advantage over this but I beefed...

    I would just like to say

    That story was in the news again just a couple of years back. People are trying to locate the wreck to see if it was shot down. Some reckon it was shot down. Guy had been in Vietnam and wanted to just go home, must have just had enough eh. Brize Norton is actually a huge place. Biggest one in uk...

    I would just like to say

    I wouldn’t know mate. There is a club in the uk for capri owners. The Old Ford’s sure have a fan base. My other half’s old man has a 87’XR2 he wants to either sell or rebuild, I’ve told I’d buy it if he sells. Be a good project as it’s complete. It was put away dry stored 25 years ago. It looks...

    Yes mate , Brize is quite a big airbase for the UK. Transport hub etc and a training school for parachuting. Few different types of aircraft based there. No Hercs anymore, a brain surgeon in the MOD decided to punt them all, bit silly if you ask me. Very good aircraft.
