    Steering box drop arm

    There is a lock washer. Gwyn Lewis has a fitting guide. Torque to spec, drive for a bit then re torque and hammer the lock washer into place.

    Wanted Roll cage for 110 station wagon.

As for fitting doesnt take much longer to add the internal bar and obviously considerably stronger. Chat to SD if you get a cage without the internals they should be able...

    TD5 Defender fault code reader/diagnostic tool reccommendations

    Ahh not a copy. One guy does the software for Alive, Empire and Td5inside. They all have very slightly different functionality but eventually end up the same.

    'Short' oil filter - bad for engine?

    They arnt difficult to remove, just requires the right technique. Use the correct filter from a quality brand. Smaller filter, needs changing more regularly. I change my oil and both filters every 6k.

    Roll cage to support expedition roof rack?

    A cage is a always a welcome addition to a land rover, ive had the misfortune of being in a severe accident where the cage genuinely saved my life. Not only that but its been a huge benefit for loading things on the roof! Saftey Devices also sell excellent brackets that bolt round the cage...
