I have an early 109 that will be sorted as an expidition vehicle. Might even do the whole camel trophy support vehicle thing. They used 88s for the teams and 109s as the support team vehicles.

My new tyres arent that big! I bought some 8.25 r16 michelin XZRs for my 109. 34 inch tall. Looks way better than the standard 7.50s. Simple camera phone picture in the dark is not the best. To be mounted on disco steel wheels.

He's learning! With reference to the ball joint. Another failing is a complete lack of cleaning out the circlip grove to a standard approaching anywhere near enough cleanliness. A correctly fitted circlip will not come out. Installation error is the verdict. Good luck with your refund!!! LOL.

Squeeks when he walks slowly tight!!!

I visited Matlock to pick up a 109 roof rack tonight. On the way down to Birmingham I managed to bag myself a fully loaded 38 ton artic Fallen off the road into the verge, an unladen artic, Car full of babies and young uns and countless normal cars in ditches and generaly stuck, including a...

Did everyone go home early from the pub meet tonight or what?

Everybody sign please and pass it around to every man woman and dog who can sign. Its for a tax exemption for older vehicles to becoem a rolling date for over 25-30 years rather than fixed at 1973. So all those series motors and eventually 90s and 110s will be eligable...

Never thought I would say this but I am voting for Hitler as the new MD of landrover! Who else is with me?

An old clip rehashed. But whoever did this hit the nail on the head. The best line? "That TDi is my life!" Hitler Reacts to Land Rover DC100 Announcement - YouTube

This seems to sum up "A" frames pretty well. 'A' frames and Dollies Q. What is a trailer? A. A road vehicle, usually (but not necessarily) two wheeled, towed by a motor vehicle.Given the above dictionary definition, it is fairly clear that anything attached to the towball and having wheels in...

Towing dollies are "recovery" devices. With or without brakes. They are not allowed to be used for transportation purposes. Transporting a vehicle without tax, insurance and MOT can only be done when ALL wheels are removed from the road surface. These things are fine but are often more of...

Ref **** brakes 109. If the brake pedal is rock hard and high when the rear flexi hose is clamped then you have 2 possible issues. 1. Air in the system at the back axle. 2. Poorly adjusted rear brakes. Solution is to jack up both rear wheels and then use the brake adjusters (snail cams) to...

Spyderman. I will say only a few words to you. Spare Half shafts!

I really hope that new defender concept is total BS. If it is for real I think after the initial flurry of orders from the yeehaaas of the world. It will be the death of landrover starting from the point at which they no longer manufacture the best off road car in production and started making...

LMFAO. Dont be a ****! What the hell has the sun and planet gears got to do with diff gear ratio!

Ryder. Ref oil the springs. Yes oiling the springs will indeed reduce internal friction. But the same effect can be got by using a screwdriver between the leaves and pumping a little oil in. 10 minutes later and its done. If you want to truly improve your leaf spring ride you will need...

I do declare! That is a mighty fine dashboard switch and light.

Any electronic solenoid or relay will require an unprotected constant live feed to make it work. Defeating the whole reason for having it!
