I thought I would update this. I finally got round to stripping the box to decide whether to keep or bin it and it was in excellent condition bar the damaged 5th gear. The vibration turned out to be a knackered propshaft. As far as the damaged 5th gear goes, a strange sort of bent piece of...

Ha ha, I'd love to see the look of some of those people when that went past, or even seeing it the rear view mirror. At least with a 4x4 a small 'off' wont leave you stuck in the gravel trap!

For sale is a pair of 90 van sides with rear windows, java black and in excellent condition, Bar the odd mark here and there. Complete with all seals. The large mark in the photo of the outside is just dust. I bought these last year, but have subsequently bought some csw sides, so they are...

I'm more concerned about if they roll similar schemes out elsewhere, so would rather change it now rather than later when it will probably get even more challenging.

This Piece of legislation nicely demonstrates why left leaning governments are a disaster. (free country my arse) I have just got some csw rear panels and roof for mine and once I decide on the seat confituration will prepare for a battle with the DVLA.

Good man, That's quite a repair section.

Yeah, despite haggling it was only when I came to ask for the no claims bonus that they gave me lowest offer. By which time it was too late. Will be in contact via here next year though so see what can bee done though.

I went to lancaster as flux were £130 more expensive this year. Never had a problem with flux customer service, but Lancaster has left a lot to be desired so far.

Well if its a 2.4 or nothing then get a 2.4. My favorite is the td5 though. Or heave her out the door and get what you want!

I have some immaculate van sides going spare if the whole lot doesn't come up in one go. Will be in Portsmouth this weekend, or from time to time.

If you do decide to break the engine I need an alternator.

Looking round it appears the 200 is more reliable. Only land rover could re engineer an engine to be worse then its predecessor! That said, my 300 has not left me by the side of the road (well apart from a clutch) and even towing a trailer on a hot day did not get hot.

Evening all. I've provisionally sorted a roof now, and fixed the starter motor (hopefully!) Alternator anybody? Cheers

Sorry I've been out to the garage and as it was in the take to tip pile it has been disposed of without me knowing. Sorry about that, didn't bother offering it for sale as assumed no one would be looking for a standard bellhousing. Good luck with the hunt anyway.

I have one, a bit far to collect but postage shouldn't be too bad if no one has a closer one.

I was speaking to a guy yesterday who's girlfriend worked at Land rover. I suggested she should inquire about setting up a quality control department!

I'll stick with my defender. I could rebuild it to as new condition for 8k. Edit: better then new infact!

Proper job! Diff pin failure?

Yes, if going 4 bolt to 3 bolt you will need to loose the spacer though behind the 4 bolt flange.

Assuming 300tdi I just removed the 4 bolt flange and the spacer behind and swopped them over. To remove the 3 bolt flange I cut round the 3 bolt flange centre pin thing, and spread the area with a chisel to remove the centre thing. Theres a few threads on removing it properly, but mine was...
