    Power steering

    You put all the shims IN ! ? You may have to re do the swivel pin's/swivel bush's due to them having been set to loose. Swivel pre load involves using the right number and thickness of shims to set the load [ a pull of approx 12fp at the end of steering arm] with no big seal fitted. Land rover...

    Steering box drop arm

    I have said this before but back in the day I recon Land Rover had Man Mountain lean on the nut to do it up as first time removal has been the worst. The locking tab in pic may be non standard but one should be fitted.

    Steering box drop arm

    The shaft splines and the arm hole are tapered so when nut done up it goes tight, real tight. [ if it was you who removed the arm you will know how tight they can be] The security lock tab is standard fit. There is a master spline and if not lined up arm will not go on right.

    What is this on my defender 110

    You can get an aftermarket one for about £55 and has done its job several times on my rocky coast farm. After a meeting with a hidden boulder it was banana shaped but had done its job protecting things further back.

    New alternator not charging!?!

    Don't know if this will help but a couple of years ago my 2a would spin over slowly only if it had a fully charged battery after checking connections and replacing starter solenoid I tried starter with good jump cables direct to a battery bypassing all the landy's original cables, spun like a...

    What is this on my defender 110

    Still have one on mine. It is a standard Land Rover tubular steering guard to protect output arm and steering rod from knocks off road. Mine has a length of scaffold inside. [ met a rock or two in its time] No issue with its removal for road use or light off road driving. @meego link above for...

    Series 3 Rear step options

    The folding step is what was/is seen on series safari models. STC7632 is one for defender but should fettle and look fine on series.

    Gearbox Jerky at Idle

    This is very likely if there is no slack in the throttle cable.

    Fitting Britpart seat covers

    Yes, common enough. I did that very job for a mate some years ago. Also many have had drum brake rear axle replaced with later disc brake axle. Box of chocolates as Forrest said.:):)

    Fitting Britpart seat covers

    My bet is the engine was replaced much later, Discovery only came on the market in 89 ish. Mine is a 1990 Ninety with 200 fitted in the naughty's. Last year recovered the center seat and had to use later type cover. It can be a bit of a fight to do the covers but one just has to work them on...

    Fitting Britpart seat covers

    As above, yours is not Defender it is a Land Rover Ninety or One Ten. Your 200tdi engine is a later replacement for original engine. There are a number of differences with 83 to 86 trucks from later models.
