    3 flats in a row? (same wheel)

    Are tubes not better if used offroad? I'll be honest i don't know anything about tyres yet!

    3 flats in a row? (same wheel)

    Maybe I'm just unlucky, but I'm wondering if there may be something else at play? Had a blow out on the motorway the other week. Nearside rear, put the spare on (which had a brand new tube in 5 months ago and hadn't been used since!) and it went flat after 5 miles of motorway driving... Waited...

    Workshop done over.

    one of my customers got raided. we had a reg and clear images on CCTV, you could see them making phone calls to eachother as well and the place is in the middle of nowhere so it wouldn't have been hard to get phone records! but they weren't interested and didn't investigate due to lack of...

    if you want loud, you'll want a master blaster! think of a mini air raid siren. 120db of pure hell. i've fitted hundreds of them and a few dozen of my customers that have them have had attempted break-ins... shock sensors on windows mean that the siren is ringing before they're even in, and they...

    aftermarket sunroof options for LR Camper?

    Thanks, i've noticed about the vented/unvented types. i'll probably go with unvented as if i need air, i can just open the window or the windscreen vents... 400x400mm seems to be a pretty standard size, which i'd be happy with. i just don't like the look of any i've seen! (only 3 semi decent...

    Offroad LED Lights - Location and type?

    Thanks, all good advice! I understand that lights at the front of the roof will create a shadow, but won't this be taken care of by the factory headlamps? I've never fitted led lights to a vehicle before so I'm greatful for all the info! The reason for the side lights is because this defender...

    Offroad LED Lights - Location and type?

    Hi all, i'd like to fit some LED light bars to my 110. i'm an electrician by trade so wiring, light output etc isn't a problem, but i'd love some advice on where to locate the lights! I'd like to have 360* coverage (on separate switches, most of the time i'll only use the front) so i plan to...

    aftermarket sunroof options for LR Camper?

    Hey all, just after some advice! My 110 is converted to a camper in the rear, i'd love to add a sunroof to it for two reasons. 1: so that i can see the sky from bed, 2: to provide ventilation as it can get quite humid in there with a few people in... do any of you have sunroof experience? This...

    Clumsy Clutch!

    Hi guys, just an update if anyone reads this in the future. i opened the box behind the clutch pedal up, and i adjusted the bolts. it's now working absolutely fine, as it should do and i've driven 100 miles so far. i've still got the new master/slave cylinder, but not fitted them. i'll keep them...

    Clumsy Clutch!

    Thanks guys, the weather wasn't too cold today and i had some time after work to have a look. I can't find any leaks, I topped the fluid up a few weeks ago (it was already at a good level) and it's not gone down. I was going to bleed the system but ran out of time. i've ordered a new master and...
