Hi Roddy, Thanks for the kind words, when you start your thread please post a linky here ;) Sorry, for some reason I can't see your pictures link :( Where abouts in Highlands ? I am in Inverinate, near Eilean Donan Castle, IV40 8HB ;) I'm definitely interested in some Transmission parts off...

Here is all the Front Prop UJ's all stripped out, nay dramas .... Predictably, when I serviced it there was one UJ that didn't have a grease nipple, so I couldn't grease it, yeah that was the deceased one, the others weren't too bad at all, but I've bought the whole lot, so I will change 'em...

A busy week in the Workshop, but managed to do some D15KOE 'ing yesterday ............................... Who all remembers the 1961 song "Aaat laaaast" .... The long awaited Watts Linkage arrived .... The initial joy was short lived and ya'll can imagine how blue the air was when I...

Exactly this, if they are fitted we always wire them to sidelights ;)

Yes, just remember to replace the non latching Switch in the D2 Dash to a Defender Heated Seat Switch which does latch, swap over the face of the switch using the one you have :) HTH ;)

Looking good Maestro :) I'm not much help, never stripped a Series, but obviously there must be something still holding the lower Dash :D

Ain't that the truth :D :D :D Landy's coming on nicely :)

Hi and welcome :) I doubt it will stop fighting you, I have had lots of Range Rovers, Discoveries and a TD5 Defender over the years . I recently got a TD5 Discovery 2, (admittedly long story) but it didn't cost anything and is quite a tidy old thing. I have replaced almost everything and done...

A little more Disco'ing in between jobs ;) Watts has not turned up so more hassle / waiting around etc etc etc :( So the stage I have been at for a while now is going around and fixing a very big bunch of muppets bodges, but slowly slowly I'm getting there :( It's stupid unseen stuff I keep...

So glad you actually found the cause, yes Paul, I agree 100% with you, obviously they put it together with bent Push Rods :( :mad::mad::mad: Makes me mad, you should check out my Discovery 2 "athon" project thread ;)................. Aside from the jobs I knew needed doing such as some...

Watts Linkage hasn't arrived yet :( Dispute and refund time if it isn't here tomorrow :( Which then leaves me all the naffin' hassle of sorting out another :( I cracked on with the last remaining Oil Leak, which was Transfer Gearbox pouring out from somewhere above the Centre diff ;) I...

That's these 2 Discovery Mudflaps and associated welding bitties all final finished :) Rear Left .... Right Front .... The right Rear has already had the Bracket done not too long ago, and the inner Wheel-arch looks a whole lot better than the left side did, it's all solid so I...

All is schutzed, time to go pull the masking, refit the Mudflaps to the Brackets then get the D15KOE off the lift and do some paying work :D I've a Subaru which is up there with the worst Front Brake Judders I've ever experienced in any vehicle :eek: The Subaru Outback (2016) Front Discs and...

Discovery update, from close of play last night .... So whilst waiting for the Watts Linkage, (on it's way now, hopefully be here by the w/e), I decide to do some small (ha ha) jobs on the D15KOE which involve a small amount of welding :D:D:D .................... It needs Mud-flap Bracket left...

Sorry, double post :(

The old ones were rusty and pitted around the seal area, very common in our salty climate ;) The Seals had been done before, but whomever didn't change the Flanges, that's why I bought the Kits with all parts, (Flange, Nut, Seal, Muck Thrower, and Felt Seal) ;) I've had this issue before with...

Thank you :) Another update shortly :)

Love it :)

Love it :)

OK, that's not good news in a way, because we don't have a definitive answer as to why it bent the Pushrods :( Did you find any small marks on the Valves or Pistons to indicate they had contacted each other ? What is needed now is to check and see if perhaps a sprocket has moved on it's shaft...
