err I saw some a while back...pm me !

I'd swap them out at the swivels...where are you?

Oh come on....one of you must know!

Off roading at the weekend and lost all drive to all wheels. Centre diff had packed up previously. Pulled the rear halfshafts out today - All fine. Pulled the diff out and the little gear (is it a planet gear?) on the diff pin was in pieces, so that explains the rears. Both front and rear...

I have a couple of series 2 boxes for sale...where are you? changing the gearbox is easy, getting the rusty bolts out of the seatbox is the tricky bit.....the last time i did one was extra fast as I needed a gearbox cross as well :)

Hey clive one of them new fangled pms is on its way....

weirdly after various bits of cleaning it started ok today and managed 4 hours of off roading, stayed cool as well. If it wasn't for the snapped halfshafts it would have gone on longer.....was a great day though :)

fuel delivery is fine, i had heard that these 3.9s suffer from vaporisation but i don't have a compression tester so cant test that....

takes about 30 mins to fit one, its dead easy. Remove metal plate under middle seat Unbolt rear cover plate from gearbox, remove locking nut, locktab washer and drive cog. Place all of these in abox ready to send to me. Put overdrive cog on, overdrive locktab (slightly different) and locking...

thanks slob, i checked and it seems fine. I have had all the plugs out and they were black and sooty but not wet / oily or washed clean by super heated water. i have the rocker covers off as well and no emulsified oil in there.

Running a 3.9l v8 (could be a 3.5 i don't know how to check) ran it very hot last week after losing the alternator pulley (whoops). Fitted a replacement alternator and topped thye coolant up and took it for a spin. Took a while to start then ran ok until i got to a junction when it died. took an...

I have to say the peugeot 505 diesel engine (steve parker conversion) as great in mine...and its for sale :)

Clutch in the 90 went the other day when i was reversing out of the drive....neighbour was desperate to come out so I pushed the 90 back in the drive. fixed it in the afternoon by making sure it was in high ..... d'oh (min dyou I was panicked he isn't right keen on me and he hates land rovers(...

The nut that the lock washer tab gets bent into....the bracket yo uare missing is the one that bolts to the vehicle right? clevis pin yo ucan get around with a nut and bolt. Oil should have been drained, thats obvious right? Do you have the thingy which makes a nice round circle on your gearbox...

had one in a 90, well still have one in a 90 but i sold it. it was an easy fit into there. i debated about transplanting it into the series and only stopped cause i didn't want an old 90 carcass lying around!
