Search struts depot. They have adjustable types. It used the company but was working on an overland trailer & it lifts the lid with the tent on top with ease with 2 struts on. Saw the name company name on them

You may well have an "Agri spares" place near you, they will have a selection of struts used to lift open tractor windows and other access panels.

Thanks! Just perusing the site with the measurements between the existing holes as reference. Sadly banging "Ifor Williams" into the search only returns horse trailer struts at 2100N, which might rip the canopy in half if I fitted them 🤷‍♀️ going...

Took me ages to find a new cover,came with the solid rear but no strut. Still have the mesh door incase the dogs go inside. When this is fitted I push the mesh right over onto the roof. My air intake is behind the headlight as it’s not a normal...

Struts depot on the net has a good section. The rear tail gate is the same design if it’s mesh or solid. Remove mesh and jut add flat Ali in its place. All fixings are the same.

Oh I love mine, solves all the problems I had with my utility 110. Just fit in the tub lengthways! My £150 ifor williams has the mesh door - mesh is just held on with zip ties (installed by previous owner) and just has holes where the gas strut...

Here’s my special…love these as work horses . With the back on I can sleep in the rear on green lane trips

Cheers!

Should be under the bracket & nut & bolt to hold together

Mystery bracket in question is near the air filter case, around a hose near the throttle cable It's zip tied to said hose - now, I bought this post rechassis and have found a number of part-finished jobs, should I bolt this to the underside...

Any chance you can email me these wiring diagrams too? 😂 I'm having the same problem

Only one fuse for all indicator lamps each side I'm afraid. Should be quite easy to access by removing the headlamp cowl, otherwise the loom runs inside the wing and you have to remove the trim inside the wheel arch to get to it. I've got some...

15/40 is the kiddy, lots of land rover owners like to UPGRADE the parts they use incl oil and the engine simply wasnt designed for thin oil. Diff and tfer box whatever takes your fancy 80/90, 85/90 its all good enough, again cheap and cheerful...

Cheers! Very handy guide

There you go, matey

Definitely not Optimil hinges, i got some a couple of years ago and don’t recommend, the rubber bits that go between the doors and the hinges are awful after two years and the anodised is crap. I am the only one who thinks this? Also they do...

Good try though 😁 I think I have managed to knock the pins out of an old set before. But the pin would need to be drilled through and it’s diameter is too small for that I think.

I had a go using a pushpin adapter for my drillpress but the amount of force necessary to dislodge the pin was above the level I was comfortable making using my antique equipment that I use to make things out of precious metals. I abandoned that...

I read this and thought that’s a good idea. But how ? The grease needs to go to the centre part of the hinge as that’s where it rotates on the pin and I’m not seeing an easy way to do that in a DIY way !!

So just an update - I got the OEM hinges and am painting them 😂

hi all no more posts from me my 110 hard top letty has gone to the big garage in the sky after two cars racing hit an other car into my landy the insurance then said no more cannot mend her so im back to looking for now

Parts list in case you'd like to add up how much it cost me (does not include the many sections of pipe and hoses that I didn't use!!!!). Other sellers exist I'm sure this is purely for reference so you can get the right size parts if you want...

Result: Had a bit of trouble fitting the snorkel top as it was a bit big but padding it out with an end off one of the many spare hoses I've got it's now solid. Should also say that she seems to breath a lot easier now and the turbo...

So what I ended up with: oil catcher pipe extended: (It got shorted when in place to line up with the T) Turbo pipe first section: Air filter section made up (even though had to remove input hose again as not enough room to get the corrugated...

oh yeah, I also worked out eventually that I can't just get rid of the oil catch pipe, well not without even more bits to try and fit, so that resulted in another rethink.....

I started buying all the pipework to connect the snorkel but have had it in my mind for a while now to get rid of the standard air filter; thus the project expanded a little to get a full set of new pipes between turbo and snorkel. Matching the...

So the Nakatanenga snorkel came from 4x4overlander pretty damn quick. Nicely packaged. The only think I didn't like is that the welding wasn't complete all the way round the wing-top plate:

A few posts to follow with how over the last couple of weeks I've spent all the fuel money I've not used on too many wrong sized bits of kit and how I eventually got everything connected.
