I'd imagine that they don't wanna spend 800 pounds because its disgustingly expensive but don't have the confidence/know how to do it themselves...

So you've been a member 6 days, have 2 posts and you want lzir to help you out already? :doh:

To the op, would it not be beneficial to run two sets of wheels? Standard road tyres for towing and then you can chuck your mud tyres on for green laning.

Gotcha paul, cheers! Trouble with the breaker bar is trying to lock the pulley off rather than getting enough force on the breaker bar... I think next stage is going to be cranking the engine over again and if not what you have suggested but maybe locking the engine off at the flywheel...

Ah yea... :doh: could be why I didnt think the battery had enough grunt then! Will try that method again then!

Redhand, I did give this method a go but the battery didnt gave enough grunt left in it to crack the nut, the engine just stopped dead. Whats the reason you'd remove glow plugs?

well the latest update aint so good... last week she over heated, spat all its water out. Recovered it home to investigate, filled it up with water and bled it out and everythings hunky dorey - had it ticking over for an hour with no issues. Took it out for a test run a couple of days later...

try the plugs on the back? Failing that try a different head unit.

what engine is it?

for the pennies it costs why wouldn't you use new? I always try to use new nuts/bolts/washers/fasteners where possible

I got a mate who's done his alpine windows and rear side windows, doesnt look the prettiest but is functional and does the job! He's sacked the rubbers off but not sure how he's fastened them on, I would imagine rivets and sikaflex to keep it all waterproof.

Whip the door cards off and have a look, when I got mine someone had propped the drivers window up with a bit of wood... all I needed was a new regulator and window runner

Some standard height bearmach blue hd would be more suitable for you I reckon... maybe get rid of the viscous fan and fit a leccy one... use it much at night? Maybe a working light for the rear and some spots? All depends how blingy u wanna be as they are very capable vehicles as they are!

i'd go with the exhaust manifold gasket... I've done mine which was making a "ticking sound" as you describe

200tdi_ayre you can't raise a hotrod with a goose's arse! :doh:

Have a search on the forum- the window and door locks are easy fixes If your unsure as to whether its your tyres try swapping with your mate then both go out again... Is the whirring on acceration, deceleration, all the time? When stationary or only when moving?

The original springs have probably never been changed so they'll have sagged and will probably be completely shagged - replacing mine lifted it considerably more than 2 inches so i wouldn't worry!

I got one too :lol:

mine dunt fit in a garage :( But its ok cos I don't own one :lol:

Fix all your rust, take it out to work and play then decide what you need next/most for your needs!
