    Understanding a few 1990s Land Rover Trim/Options for the CSW (Research)

    Would anyone be able to advise on these points at all it would be appreciated I have been looking online, but have drawn a blank I am struggling on a few points though. It is my current assumption that in the 90 CSW in the TDI era it only ever had the option of 4x folding sideways seats in the...

    Understanding a few 1990s Land Rover Trim/Options for the CSW (Research)

    There are few a lot of differences I have found. The later 1990s Station Wagons from the era seem to all have a 36 spline steering arrangement whereas commercials are mostly all 48, And yes to your third point, I understand with defenders being so modular everything needs to be taken with a...

    Understanding a few 1990s Land Rover Trim/Options for the CSW (Research)

    Hi All, I am doing some research for a YouTube video I am making as I have noticed some sellers more recently seem to be trying to sell converted hard top vans as genuine CSW's, but in reality are often pretty crudely converted. Obviously, as you do tend to pay a bit of a premium for the...

    Steering box leak on my 90

    Thanks sorry its a 1999 T Reg 300 TDI 90 CSW Also just to add just before full lock there is a bit of a dead spot (side to side) movement when turning right just before hitting full lock, but there is no play or anything when driving normally, when wheels are straight and true if that means...

    Steering box leak on my 90

    Noticed my steering box seems to have recently developed a bit of a wet patch on the underside and a slight drip of rusty looking fluid on the floor this morning The black power steering reservoir seems to be full though and at the normal level. Is it worth trying to use some of that stop leak...

    300 tdi Diff lock kept coming out going up a rocky muddy hill yesterday

    My diff lock has always been temperamental tbh. When I first got my CSW I don't think it had ever been in low range as it was basically fused into 4WH. My mate freed it up and it now works good in low range. However, the diff lock gear knob was always kind floppy after this. I've never really...

    Defender 90 300 Tdi - Coolant Recommendation Thread

    hard to say as I replaced some hoses last year and lost some, but not all coolant and just added some of the universal stuff from Prestone, which I probably shouldn't have done, but it was only a small 1 litre bottle for a top up. I can't really remember but this time I am going to totally hose...
