Your cylinder head is cracked, ive just replaced mine, and its lovely now. Symtoms were immense pressure in top hose, water pressurising out the top cap and hoses popping off. The cause of mine was to much porting and to much boost. I fitted a landrover stamped head gasket, which i beleive...

Back to the topic, anyone know how much steering lock i will have with some 0 offset wheels, or +8 offset?

Hopefully the photo above is working, thats is how my truck is atm. Which is a 2inch lift on the 33 feds They are the -32 offset mods, which i bought accidentally! Brand new never used! Maxy man your truck is absolutely incredible! Taking flex to another level! I meant flexing enough to...

Hello all, ive done a few searches, and know quite a bit about offset already, but i just seek a simple answer. Can i run 285's which sit inside my original flexi arches without poking out and breaking the law? If so how much steering lock would i have, and what would i need to do, to be...

thankyou sir, youve made things much easier, 1 last question, why do i need a pair of hubs? Are the discovery ones no good for the 90? I have a 10spline landrover 90 axle on my truck at the minute(non disc) which if its easier i could use instead? Wasnt sure if there would be a shaft to fit...

Hi there, i have just bought, and fitted a rear ashcroft air locker to my 90, I used a very good condition rear discovery1 disc axle, the axle was a 10spline, the new diff is a 24spline, Which halfshafts and drive flanges do i need, are all the axle casings the same? Or is there a...

Im a self employed carpenter, and i couldnt put f*ck all in my 90, when my van went in for mot i used my 90 for 2days, luckily i was 1st fixing and only need X amount of tools. I struggled to put my 6 foot level and long handle sweeping brush in there. I would buy a van, and have 90 for fun...

Its not a bad tapping noise, the mechanic says it sounds better than most landrovers he works on. But its frustrating that it was lovely sounding motor prior to the events When he adjusted the tappets. He slackened them right off 1 by 1 None of them were notabely loose, however what we...

As a last question people... Since doing This to my landy.. I changed the oil to get all The crap out... It runs lovely now but what seems to be the tappets are making a tapping noise, Could this be cause the old oil was thick as hell, And the new is golden clean? I have had the tappets...

The forensics guy came out whilst i was on site, he said he is almost certain that it was being stolen to order, and thinks he may be back. Ive parked it in now, and removed the battery. So hopefully that will deter them. I am going to invest in some more security. Thanks for the replies, i...

Thankyou. Yes thats my intention. The police arent coming out tonight as its not a high value offence ?!
