Currently in the middle of a defender rebuild. I put one of the front stub axles on today, and the hub and wheel etc. Whats really odd is that the wheel wont rotate all the way to lock stops in either direction? :shock: I think I know what the problem is, but ive no idea why? if anybody could...

So how do you fit an lt77 to a v8? What's required?

Trying to weigh up what the gearbox options are for my 90 rebuild. The vehicle body (bulkhead, seatbox, floor etc) is a 94 200Tdi with the LT77 gearbox. Ive got a marsland v8 NAS chassis and a v8 engine to go in and I intend removing the body from my landy in one go and dropping it onto the...

Thick drive members means 10 spline vs thin for 24 iirc.

Don't believe you can.

glad to see i wasnt the only one, and we both put it the right way up lol! I reckon my build is about 4 weeks behind you at current rate of knots. I have the rear end done, but the front end is built up but without swivel balls so its resting on the floor :) I went with gwyn lewis kit too...

Looks great mate. Is that an adrenalin a-frame? How did you find fitting? Mine was a nightmare! Also what kinda torque you put on the castle nuts?

Take the springs off and measure them. Compare this to standard. They should be taller if it been lifted.

Cooper stt 265/75/16 on 0 offset modulars fit nicely under standard arches.

Only if it was an adventure. Best bike I ever had

Fair enough but special track is the one most know about when insa turbo is mentioned. Ask the op what he meant!

artmin design. thank me later.

I'd agree. The more aggressive the tread looks the worse it will be on the road, but better off road. General rule obviously.

So you do mostly road miles and your asking about insa turbos.... Really?

dont think you can go wrong with gwyn lewis stuff. hes absolutely worth a chat to, just on advice alone. after looking at what felt like a million options i bought a kit from him yesterday. my previous experience was with Koni heavy track shocks which I thought were pretty good, along with...

thanks. i thought it was the right way, but the rose joint allows it to be either way so i did wonder. its not so much the bushes dont fit, just that i needed 8 hands as i need to compress the bush slightly and squeeze it in both sides. anyhow, doesnt sound like there is a special knack to...

Nope. Made for those that know what there doing. Its all a learning curve ☺ Luckely its going to be impossible to get the radius arms wrong lol.

Instructions are not a strong point on Landis bits you buy lol. None came with the chassis either.. Joke lol.

Training arms are like this

Thanks all. Yes the spring cups are the wrong way lol. Didn't notice either. None of the bits are bolted up, just doing some test fit to see how it all works. The a frame is just resting in the axle hole. I'll try doing with a screwdriver first. The problem is that the bush is about 1mm too wide...
