agreed, but lots more £££££££s I'd have a 130 twincab with a quadtec back tomorrow if I could afford one.

That looks identical to the Numax 1000A battery Numax CXV-X 1000 Amp - Leisure Batteries - Numax Leisure Batteries Got one of those in my D1. Well actually its standing in on my D2 for the moment lol. Great battery, I'll be getting another to dual charge my D1. edit - Numax one no longer...

Yep, probably a bit on the high side pricewise, but it does look unusually straight, and of course its a 300Tdi which IMHO is the best engine you can put in a Landy. I'd be tempted to go have a look and try and knock a chunk out of the price if its as good and rot free as it looks.

Try Thunderpole, they do some good basic starter kits CB Radios, CB Radio Antennas, CB Radio Accessories, CB Radio Shop | THUNDERPOLE.co.uk Their own Thunderple 1000 is said to be a good little unit. I'm running a Maas 8040 Colonia which is brilliant - it uses a Uniden board which is about the...

Hi mate. The 18" and 16" that you're quoting refers to the diameter of the wheel itself - when you put the std factory spec tyres on the overall diameter is nigh the same. 255/55x18 = 29.04in dia 235/70x16 = 28.95in 255/70x16 = 30.06in TBH I found the 255/70x16 to be the best size tyre for std...

Hi mate. One of the first things I did to my Td5 was to remove the ACE :D I had a leak in one pipe, then another, then from the front ram, then the rear so I decided to rip the whole bag of s**t out and fit conventional anti-roll bars all round. I got mine from Andrew at Maverick4x4 - all...

Thats not powerful enough - it takes 460Nm :eek: I've got a Sealy CP2450 which is great Sealey CP2450 Cordless Impact Wrench 24V 1/2"Sq Drive 410lb.ft 1 x Battery | Sealey CP2450 A bit heavy tho if I'm honest, but it does the job

Its been a while, but I've finally got the alloys sorted and boy am I happy with them ! :) Before: And after: Stunning! I'll get the tyres fitted next weekend, been a bit busy sorting out a problem with the D2 this weekend :rolleyes:

As you'll be aware its a very common problem on facelift headlamps. LR revised the breather/vent on the later lamps which is supposed to make it much better. I'd suggest checking to see which lamps you have and whether they have the later vents or not - if not, the later vent is supposedly a...

Yeah I know mate, I posted it so that the OP could see what is involved - and that its a one way process due to the mount of cutting involved. TBH I think its probably easier on a D1 than on an early D2 because you can keep the D1 radiator grille - no need to fit the facelift grille if you...

Yeah, I saw the 4x4 is born series - loved it. As to why? - well I have a 300Tdi that is in pretty good order to be honest. Got a couple of jobs to do mechanically, the biggest being to replace the steering box and pump, but its a 100k miler with new cambelt, new clutch & gearbox. Rear arches...

I had the standard GS all grey interior in mine, but over the years I've fitted a facelift black and cream interior - this is 'before' with the cream leather and black door cards already fitted - and after Took a weekend, most of the time taken by swapping over the wiring, switches...

Need much more detailed info to give a reasonable answer, eg - do you want to live IN it or ON it? ie are you going to use a roof tent or sleep inside? If roof tent, then my option would be a 130 with a quadtec back body. Loads of storage, all secured in the back body, 300Tdi engine for...

I got a set of Pirelli Scorpion STs off breakers on ebay - bought as a pair and then 2x seperates, all have 5-7mm tread, no damage and the lot cost me under £200 delivered. Well worth doing it that way if you have the time - it took me about a month to get the set (actually got 6 in all now...

If you want to go ahead and fit the later lamps (they're referred to as 'facelift' headlamps over here), I have a copy of a guide written by a reputable tuning company here - http://duckfieldengineering.com/forums/D2FaceliftHeadlampsGuide.pdf . You can get the OEM headlamp connectors nowadays...

I stripped the whole interior out. That sound deadening foam is like a huge sponge - you HAVE to get it out if its to have any chance of drying out completely. When I pulled mine out, it was literally running out of the foam like a tap turned on full. It had been stood for a year or more with...

:lol::lol::lol:

£80 would be an hours labour mate. You could look for a local indy if you don't want to do it yourself - my indy charges £40/hr

I had a whimsical notion of putting a Series I or II body on my 300Tdi chassis - has anyone here done something similar? If so, can you post some pics? Not sure what a 100" Series would look like... This is what got me thinking - utterly mad but somehow appealing! I think its a 107? I wouldn't...

Not ignoring you mate, just don't have any experience of spacers on a D2, or of fitting that size tyre. I'm running 265/75x16s on a +40mm lift (OME) - thats a pretty standard mod. Haven't heard of anyone running 33s on a D2, not in the UK certainly. I think I've seen some US rockcrawlers on 33s...
