    Can anyone identify this radiator

    Bit of an update, took the rad to be re-cored and straight away. He said an early Sherpa Leyland van radiator, so Leyland Rover related. As to the similar mountings as found on landys and rover rads. Although I have since found an identical radiator online, apart from being a crossover rad...

    Can anyone identify this radiator

    I do like my toys.:) Own this mex too To fit a different rad is a big job, as everything is crammed in and moving the fans is a big task. Have since phoned a rad refurb firm and I'm about to run over there with the rad.

    Definitely not an sd1. Got one of those too and the rads are massive.

    Had a six pot one ton. The rad on that was about the same size as a four pot series. I think a recore is the only option.

    Can anyone identify this radiator

    I did wonder that, although the mountings on this with locating pins at the bottom is typical Land Rover. The stage one v8 rad did cross my mind, although this is different too. I did run a series rad before this rad which wasn't man enough to keep a v8 cool. There is no room for a fan, as the...

    Can anyone identify this radiator

    Certainly a tough one. Like as you say the 90 and 99% of landy rads are crossovers Found this website and they list just about every radiator with images and dimensions. Can't find anything like this one yet...

    Can anyone identify this radiator

    Have had this radiator in my series 2 for best part of 25 years. This has always bugged me, as to which model landy this would have been used for originally. The radiator bears the hallmarks of a Range Rover classic rad. Although this rad is several inches shorter, in length, which is needed to...

    New anti theft device for Defenders

    I would like to see more of the workings of this to see how they warrant in the region of £600. Is the drum replaced with a different drum, that may have some sort of indexing on the inside for the rat trap mechansim to bite onto. I have thought about one of these for my series. But I would like...

    Who makes the best full length canvas

    I know of Exmoor and All Wheel Trim. Not too sure if they all come from one outlet, or they make them themselves I did go the Mohair route prior to the latest canvas. I specifically asked to make it like a standard canvas, but NO they still made it and sent it out with zips and Tenax...

    Who makes the best full length canvas

    Any idea of who makes the best series full length blue canvas. Im on my third in 18yrs. They have all been Exmoor, but the material on the last one didn't seem quite as good and alot thinner. With almost the light shining through. Maybe it was a dodgy batch and mould was starting to appear...

    90 Defender 4 cyl petrol running problems

    A friend has been having running problems with his 92 K plate 2,1/4 petrol. First thoughts was maybe a dodgy fuel pump, for which he changed for a maybe cause of intermittent fuel starvation. As it can run for days with no problems and then splutter to a stop. The fuel seems to be returing to...

    electric supply to the heater

    The problem i have with my soft dash RR is that i can't seem to be getting any power to the blower motor relay. The relay on the side of the blower unit still has the permanent live on it, but no ignition live to work the relay. If i use a power probe on the blue/red wire everthing works fine...
