    Another tyre thread, but not which ones to choose

    Mine came from ATS recently, ordered online. Couldn’t find any better deals than them at the time.

    Road tyre recommendation

    I had Yokohama Geolanders until recently, and have now switched to BFG AT. 265/75/16 on both. The Geolanders ran absolutely fine, but they're a slightly narrower tyre than the BFG - IMVHO they didn't quite suit the car properly though. This was the ones I had fitted ...

    1987 LR 90 rear mudflaps

    Stainless ones that are powdercoated satin black FTW. I have these fitted: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/324481730455

    1987 LR 90 rear mudflaps

    Yup. Rivnut all the way. I did bolt a set on once but was very hard to get the bolts or nuts in the right place through the end of the crossmember.

    Dash gauges

    On mine it’s a battery gauge.

    Air riveter?

    That looks the same as the US pro one. As far as I can tell there are basically 2 sorts that look similar from all these suppliers - probably all come out of 2 chinese factories. The US Pro style - like this amazon one - has a slip on mandrel catcher, whereas the machine mart ones (Same as the...

    Loud whine/grinding above 30mph td5

    Double check the propshafts. The description does sounds like a UJ on one of them may be on it's way out. Then it's normal diagnosis - does it still do it if you put the gearbox into neutral? Does it do it in gear, but coasting? And so forth.

    LED Headlight Discussion and Recommendations

    The MOT issue is clear if you read the MOT manual on the subject. I recently put the trucklite ones on my wagon and I am frankly, blown away by the upgrade. My old lights had normal bulbs in and passed any MOT, but as part of the recent work, I replaced with the trucklite ones off the back of...

    Air riveter?

    I think they’re mostly all the same thing. IIRC Nielsen, Bergen and US Pro are all the same company. Certainly my Nielsen one above is actually a US Pro device. And is slightly nicer than the Clarke one I used to have until I broke it (my fault, not the tools)

    Air riveter?

    I have this one. It’s good. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/234220369377?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=UkTWtU8QQai&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=fMSCYeqISXC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

    Halo led headlight

    Depending on the age/wiring - maybe linking the pins, maybe just removing it. If it's an anodised black heatsink like assembly, you can just remove it. That resolved this issue on mine when I installed LED headllights. If it's (I think) an orange relay looking thing - then remove and bridge the...

    My 1989 90 V8 County

    This is how nasty it looked beforehand. I hated that white door, it called me names every time I looked at it and all the kids bullied me about it. I laughed at it as I took it to the dump, to ensure it wouldn't get reused again. I swear I heard music playing as I walked away from it in the...
