Yeah thats the only reason i was considering doing it in the engine bay. and when theres nothing in the way it shouldn't make much difference? also for removing the viscous fan.. i know its a lefty thread but the belt keeps slippin! anyone got ant tips for that besides holding with a...

ok cool thanks

which is so much easier? thanks

im finally putting a disco 200tdi into my 2.5 petrol 90. i have the petrol out and gettin ready to put the 200 in, my question is should i do the timing while the engine is on the floor or will i put it into the 90 first? also are those flywheel locking pins necessary or can i do without...

i have an ARC inverter and its a great little machine, it cost a few bob though but so handy! mig is easier to use but i find arc cheaper to run and once you get used to it its all the same. Google sip T170 if ya fancy a look its about 2-3 kg and a foot in length

Off Road Lift Kit - 1 5 INCH LIFT this is the smallest iv seen but its britpart and probably absolute muck!

I'd love to see 6 people sitting comfortably in the back of that with the chassis mounted roll cage! ha!

changin the whole dash could be a right pain! Get yourself a MUD as mentioned. but first take all your interior (seats carpets the lot) out and hoover/ steam clean then paint all the surfaces to smarten it up. Then take out your headlining and remove fabric, wash, stick back on tight to...

first id start the engine, but drain tank and use clean fuel! give it a jump and see what happens! strip it down get that bulkhead off, get replacement, either galv it or paint the **** out of it, buy welder second hand for less than 100 blips and attach new spring mounts, keep an eye out...

theres a few quides to doin it the other way round! so go by them.. my 2.5 petrol is doing 17mpg!! its a cracker of an engine really but i cant afford that so thats why im doin a 200TDI conversion.

possibly what every one will be saying about you when your towed off the beach by a standard defender which has working uj's, props, radius arms, non-vibrating transmission etc... just dont bet on the bill stopping at 400

maybe its the safest load height for loads on roof.. for situations like cross winds etc. :confused:

try matt or satin black paint, i painted mine and they look grand

Yes the Disco 200 uses the came mounts as the defender engine so no chopping your galv! And i would recommend buying a heap of bolts and just replace as you go! if you ever have to work on that bit of the vehicle again working with unseized bolts will save you heaps of time! Handy shed you...

Nice one! dont ya just love an easy fix? you would be kicking yourself if you had bought the D4D now... or have you??:behindsofa:

thats probably the case for most people but for someone who is just considerin it for the reason of havin to do it cause of knackered ones in place it could lead to a potentially v expensive job I agree lifting can help but only really with the addition of oversized tyres like you, as i...

here ya go! ;) http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f38/thinking-lifting-your-landy-read-first-66840.html

I only removed the radius arm when i replaced my o/s front outrigger, shouldn't be much different for the n/s? the hardest part is removin the remains of the old one, but it just requires patience new one is handy to stick on with a welder.

Halfords gets my vote too.. iv yet to be stuck for a spanner/socketwhile using on landy I did manage to break a torx t55 head while proper hangin out of it and they replaced no problem i jus showed them the piece and they told me to take a new one off the shelf :) Still robbin bastids for...

as redhand says bleed the brakes, and try to flush out all the old fluid while you do it.. brake fluid absorbs moisture naturally so if its been in there a few years it will have done so which could lead to spongy brakes - probably something a dealer wouldn't do cause your not likely to check
