The position of the spokes on the steering wheel will dictate where you can,t fit it. There's so many different designs of steering wheels you can fit now. I fitted one of these knobs to my series III for reversing with a caravan but I did not always use it, even with no power steering. I...

Try Universal Salvage. They buy all Jaguar /Land Rover scrap bodies and prototype vehicles and break them to sell to the motor trade. A lot of the prototypes are left hand drive to be tested in Europe so you should be able to find the lamp units you want.

I had a series III for 20 years and remember that you can engage 4 wheel drive on the move (though I have never done it at a speed over about 10 MPH) and I don't think you would ever need to. Just jab the yellow knob down, and ease off the throttle as you do it. As soon as you get back to a...

I lined my 88" Series roof with some left over foam backed household carpet years ago intending to fit the genuine headlining on afterwards... so that the carpet would be insulation. As I was rebuilding , I had the roof off and turned upside down in the garage. First I cut the carpet to...

Jack it up onto axle stands. Remove the wheels and get a mate to take them away [plus the wheel nuts and spare wheel] and store them for you. Also remove the steering wheel. All this is easy for you to do and should ensure that the low lifes will go for another vehicle that will be less work...

If you are an RAC or AA member you can call them and they will open your car for you. Expect them to ask you to I.D yourself. You may have to have the ' At home ' membership package though to get this help. (presume your vehicle is at your home address) My better half managed to lock her...

I think it best to consider the state of the roads on route to your garage before driving it there. I once drove a new L322 Range Rover nearly 40 miles on the M40 after it's suspension dropped to what's known as transportation mode..... this is the setting they are on for being...

It's a real credit to you. Mine is far from finished and just looks like a pile of unrelated parts at the moment. Can't decide yet what colour I will paint it but it has to be something easy to spot if it gets stolen and broken up...... Maybe a pink chassis ! I'm still trying to find out...

Hello everyone I'm a new member and this is my first thread. I'm building a coil sprung Defender which consist of parts for years 2000 to 2001. I thought I had all the wiring harnesses fitted, but now I am not so sure. I have a 'Spider' fitted but I don't know what should plug into the socket on...
