    Series axles + 90 tranfer box = ?

    Cheers groenendael Might be best avoided then. Looks to have the defender type high/low/diff lock little lever and no sign of the red and yellow knobs. Was the stage 1 v8 axle the same width as a standard one? Just trying to guess what axle is fitted from the photo graph. It's a late 2a LWB so...

    Series axles + 90 tranfer box = ?

    Seen a series for sale that has a 2.5 td and 5 speed box in it coupled up to the series axles. Do I recall that series front axles don't take kindly to running about in 4wd on the road? Would this set up give any headaches? If so, would fitting RR diffs front an rear reduce any problems...

    Clunk when taking up the drive

    Like grunt says, could be better to get new props. Check to see if there is any wear in the splines where the two pieces telescope in and out to help with your decision. They were fine on mine when I swapped the ujs on mine but like a total tool I went and cracked the yoke so had to buy a new...

    sensible fuel discussions (no god complex persons allowed)

    Supply and demand again! The price per barrel of crude also has an effect on the edible oil price. As the crude price rises, it becomes economically viable for oils such as rape, palm, olive etc to be used as bio fuels. This opens up another market for these oils and so increases the demand for...

    Want to convert series windscreen to one piece

    I'm guessing to make full use of all that extra vision you would have to alter your wipers or add another one or something.

    What do you think of this roll bar

    I reckon it was to hold onto when riding in the back lamping rabbits out of. First time we went out shooting in my truck cab we had the ingenious idea of tapping on the roof when we saw a wabbit so the driver knew to stop. The only problem with this is every bump you go over, the bloke riding in...

    Dodgy or Not?

    I know the feeling! There was something I was after so set up the computer ready to stick a bid in at the last second. I had to go out so I made sure that I came home just at the right time to find her indoors had switch the bloody pc off so I missed it. Grrrrrr....
