Your pictures match what my garage does and I was a little concerned it was getting too hot. But I also have an 88 stat fitted. I would have expected the gauge to sit at about halfway but sits where yours is. But even towing doesn’t really move...

Usually the recommendation is the factory suspension. Other setups tend to be harder and bouncier. And the factory setup gives the best all around ride quality. It’s a tall 4x4 with a beam axle Suspension setup it is never going to compare with...

I think these are one size for all models. So may just be a case of poor pattern parts?

But then you dont have them acting like a bobble head in the rear view mirror. Where is your sense of fun!

Room for at least three more in there!

Easy.

That will be the problem then: I know others have had similar problem. But just to show it is not a new issue with modern parts. When I sent these pics to my dad he sent back some photos of him with the gearbox out of a Toledo at the side...

Nicely showing why I wouldn't be without one :oops:

That's a good idea, then sent it back, get your money back and buy something useful.

Definitly name the shop! As above, just the rad is fine and you can fit it in the frame yourself. Just be aware as also mentioned above you will need to remove and reuse the il cooler adapters. While on radiators is there any need to upgrade...

I agree on principle that removing both is not a problem as you regain alignment whe. You refit. However from expiriance of swapping bushes on one and both radius arms. To get it lined back up and the bolts in requires a lot of prying, ratchet...

Clearly you can run without them and people do, but they are a very cheap and easy to fit piece of protection that I would not go without. Considering how thin the diff pan is, it would not take much of a knock to dent or damage it. Especially if...

The hard top being heavier than a station wagon is purely anecdotal. In the autumn I swapped my hardtop body for a station wagon body. With no doors fitted it was much easier to manhandle the station wagon body into place than it was to lift the...

Second this. I have done it in my 90 with 750s on wolf rims, So only slightly smaller. Stacked one on top of each other. But they do wobble around a disconcerting amount while driving! I can also confirm as an fyi to anyone else that five...

I think they were “diy”. In that you just drilled and tapped them as part of the roof rack fitting. Same with the rear supports that need capping drilling or the longer version that runs down to the crossmember bracket. I do not think they are a...

That is fairly common. You need to fill the diff guard with waxoil or similar to preserve the diff pan. I would not run without the guard personally as the diff pans are very thin.

Why do you think the axle may not be original. It is just because the rear has been changed? Axles are very easy to rebuild so unless there is a very good reason they are not something people tend to change. Especially as the front already has...

the bolt hole is so you can fit a heavy duty or extended roof rack. They have supports that bolt down to the rear crossmember and that bracket on the windscreen. Pics from Google:

£15 sounds about right, no reg, so assume no v5. Is just an off road only project vehicle and parts…

I have had that before. That is the only other clutch failure I have had in the 330k miles I have done in the 110. I guess modern clutches are “better” (I use the work loosely given current circumstances) similar to modern brakes and do not wear...

Yes and I deliberately chose the 111 as it is a 200tdi from a disco to replace the wonderful power house piston cracker 19j it came with originally 😉

I am not an expert in this sort of internal engine diagnostics so wait for an adult to come along and give a proper answer. But over fueling can cause pistons to melt. So maybe an injectors issue on that piston if that’s the only one? Also as a...

I did consider LOF, which variant did you fit? But because of the mixed reviews I stuck with the one that I know and am used to. This is the first time I have had one fail. Usually mine get changed because the gearbox is out for a rebuild rather...

Are you trying to say the mighty 111bhp (when new, although well maintained so am hopeful not too many horses have escaped) is not a huge amount of power? How very dare you!! I am, at this point, just guessing that that is the problem, but will...

You can use standard shocks with a heavy duty springs, you do not need to uprate the shocks as well. I have this on my 110 with a winch, uprated front springs (same as 90 rears for reference), but still run the standard factory shocks. All you...

The ball don’t move. The cv part inside the ball does the bending. The abs ring is on the half that turns with the wheel, so the ring that the abs sensor picks up . The relationship between the 2 doesn’t change as the abs sensor is in the pin...

That is the tittle everyone else uses so thought I would jump on the band wagon. And while true that I have no drive, it is because my clutch has gone, I think I have torn the centre out of it. Went to pull away, sudden jolt, horrible whirring...

Although I am just guessing here, you may find that if it wasn't in the earlier brochure it was available through the special vehicle branch, which was far more of a bespoke rather than a package type specification. For example the utility...

It's kind of important to use the right terminology when you are asking about part of your landrover/car and what it does/how it works. If you don't know what it's called a photo is the best and quickest way to get a meaningful reponse. There is...

I don’t think they are. I had to fit them to my swb to fit a full tilt. I did exactly what you have said. I tucked it up against the capping and then positioned it at the right point to function with the tilt. Just make sure they are the same...
