Ah OK I shall give that a bash. In the meantime I've landed a transfer box for pennies from a 110 so I will bash that on and see what the real life difference is.

That is quite a useful tool. I've got 35's on my disco and it bogs down something chronic when starting off, its top speed just dies at 50 mph. The front out put bearing on the transfer box is as sloppy as you like so I am looking to swap out the transfer box for a 1.4 or 1.6. Using those...

Could you do me a favour and ask the original owner of that vehicle where the lights and the grille setup came from because I've been trying to investigate a reasonable driving light solution for my 200 tdi and am yet to see anything other than a 300 tdi chop job upgrade

That's a bit of a change lol. I've gone the other way and swapped my jap-mobile for welding work on my disco to get that back on the road. You been on any 200sx forums? as trying to find someone to swap your landrover for a 200sx on a landrover forum may well take you some time as most of the...

Because sounding clever is better than being clever obviously :blah:

Yes I am. Or was. I now manage a team of people that operate the schedule for a bunch of aircraft engineers on a small air tanker conversion program on airbus A330's :)

Would it be because the drivers side ones have sagged with age like mine have?

What wif?

Its a death rattle that I can hear over the engine and the power steering is abysmal. The metal in the bottom of the res isn't causing any problem but the fact that its worn off the pump internals probably is a huge problem.

I was under the impression that disco's had at least three different fuel tank sizes. I know way back in the pre a pound a litre days my mates disco cost him £90 to fill so there is a huge tank knocking about somewhere. Mine costs a ton to fill now which I guess sticks me somewhere around 75...

If its that small degrease it and stick a blob of black RTV sealant in it. If its really small bang a rivet in it.

JOY!! So its £300 for a new one or risk a beaten up breaker part :( So a power steering pump and an impending clutch change has probably financially written the damn thing off.

There is alot of debris in the bottom of the power steering reservoir, and there is a fair amount of squealing from the front end. It's not the biggest leap of conclusion that the power steering pump is fudged or very close. So a 93 L reg 200 tdi is the car, what are my options when it comes to...

Winch and a land anchor and you might be a bit more self sufficient. I've done it myself a couple of times down lanes I know that I can manage with no drama's but new lanes you'd mad because even the simplest of environments can go wrong and leave you as stuck as a stuck thing. I wouldn't go...

Changed me down pipe that was split down the weld and had a huge hole in it (explains the horrific noise its been making) WIred in a second set of headlamps with full dipped and main beam capability, and cut the templates out for 6x9 speakers for the back. Also re-inflated the front tyres that...
