Agree with the above, it may well have seating for four in the back but only if those seated on one side have legs. If you are a youngster I would strongly suggest an insurance quote would be wise, infact regardless of age get a qoute first.

It’s so when the nick your doors at the next landrover show,you can go back to the campsite for spares

You were the one saying to were offended !! Most of us just want you to go ahead and do it & report the outcome after the trip.

You may be able to manually select 5th gear but it's the electronics that will decide if the shift takes place.

Sure enough the diaphragm has a small tear.

common on the MGB so easily sourced

Thank you all for your advice. The MOT history shows no advisories for any rust, although I'm not sure how much that can be trusted, as I'm aware of at least one other Landy nearby being an absolute bucket but having 0 advisories due to a dodgy...

Plus 1 and indeed very interesting to see how it should be done Will be good for future posts when others are having issues of what’s involved in repairing them Plus of course what areas to keep an eye out for as these discovery’s age

@tyregeezer doing some good work there and informative. Nice to see how these motors are built & repaired @gstuart keep the faith…

I reckon it's a 300tdi We shall see if the chassis number exists with no welding in that area. Maybe the OP can provide a photo of the chassis number stamped on the chassis.

Not seen that before👍

And the answer is...simple. At the foremost inlet port there is a small circular peg: Push the piston in a little to take the spring pressure off it and remove it. Relax the pressure on the piston and it pops out: And its now apart...

Saying nothing till pics prove you blind or not :vb-weyes:. How did they get the stuff in? J

Thats either had a lot of work done to it or there’s a lot of 300tdi parts on it. Check vin & number on chassis

Good enough for a few spares for him as well

A roller gets the right texture every time. Sheep wool roller for smooth finish

I got mine from Gwyn Lewis, I'm lucky in that he lives a couple of villages away so I dropped in and one of his friendly daughters helped me out! Honestly, I think this might solve your problem, keep us updated! Good luck...

Trailer is a self build but most are based on old army sankey trailers. Does get a bit expensive to build but once done he enjoys freedom of weekend away and pitching where ever he wants. All self contained As for the Hilux it’s only the back...

That’s interesting, definitely gave me an idea there.. That does look good too! cheers.

Put tank in same place. Use the D2 so keeps it all standard. Fuel cap.look at the race car/marine type these are small(make sure a diesel nozzle will fit) & this would mount under the tray back There has been a tray back build on here (Off for...

The PAS tank and pipes were removed today. The return line was in two peices, with jubilee clips either side of the join. This is what I found when I pulled em apart: A male-male union of as yet unmeasured size but likely 3/8 BSP. Might come in...

A while back I posted a question about what 2-pack body adhesives folks were using. Someone suggested Optima from Ebay so I sourced one. Yesterday I broke the seal and started bonding in various patches and repair strips. Its quite a thick...

Depending on where you are in the country. This was in wales for 3 days He drags his trailer round a few lanes till we dump it on a campsite.

Something I would like to try been honest, plan is take wife and our dog ideally stay somewhere overnight is well. Could do with getting some AT tyres as currently sitting on normal ones and not sure I would want to chance it unless there is...

Welcome Happy spannering. Been out green laning with a friend & they are good to watch going over cross axle stuff. Oh and all in comfort

Hello Everyone Picked up Discovery 4 so tough I'm going need some forum members help at some point in my ownership due to nature of the beast so why not join in. Been honest I was looking at them for 2-3 years and alway put off by the shear...

I agree with the others here that bulkhead is ok. Most of it will be spot welds and most folk even a novice can spot weld. Preparation is key, spend the money on welding clamps, angle magnets and give it a go. If you can competently break down a...

It's quite a few hours work. Anyone good will be charging £30+ per hour, so it could be pricey. If I was doing it: I'd start by getting it blasted, identify what's really bad. Unpick the spot welds. Day? Jig it up, then weld. Day? Blast...

Iv ignored the invisible poll as well
