    Parts swap

    A Chelsea Tractor?.. Would that be anything like a Toorak Tractor? (Toorak is a wealthy suburb of Melbourne where the well-to-do live in their large homes and have 4X4s with spray on mud over the wheel arches and the closest thing to offroad is when they drop one wheel onto the grass while...

    Summer Rain...and women drivers!!!

    We had a bit of a downpour out here in the desert last week, got almost 2 inches in an hour or so and things aren't used to that much water so all the roads flooded. My missus was out at some friends that night and I got a little phone call on her mobile phone saying she went through a bit of...

    Toolbox!!!!!

    Remember some time ago I think it was Yella that put a link to a pink toolbox in ebay and myMissus saw it and wanted one. Well I bought her one for Christmas. (see pic) She tried to put it in the Disco but it rejected it, just like two magnets of the same field..haha. Worrying thing is that I...

    Just got a 94' V8i LPG - Need Advice plz

    Snorkel is a must if you get into sand or dust or even a bit of mud. The air intake on my V8 is inside the left front wheel well and sucks a lot of air laden with dust/sand/mud. My snorkel takes that air intake up to about 6 ft above ground and my fuel body doesnt get the gut load of crap that...

    Brakes messing about - any ideas?

    Hope you get it sorted. Sounds like your replacements will do the job. The servo is vacuum actuated with vacuum on both sides. If the valve on one side isnt working or leaks, the air gets in and its like you have put your foot on the btake. Most Master cylinders operate separately within...

    disco spacers

    Dont know about MOT, but usually, spring spacers go above the springs. Just get the underside of the vehicle dirty and they probably wont notice :p

    Disco Immobiliser question

    Dealer here in Western Australia wants over $300 for a key and fob, plus another $150 to code it, and he needs the vehicle to do it (500klm round trip) Wishe there was a cheaper way, I only have the one key.

    Disco Immobiliser question

    Immobilisers arent necessarily for central locking and door workings, but more to do with disabling the engine and fuel management systems. Perhaps thats the bit you have in your hands. Just a thought:)

    Free Side Steps

    Can you hold them for me??? it will take 2 days to get to Perth from out here, then 1 1/2 days to fly from Australia to England by plane, and then 2 days (getting lost) to get to your place. But at least I will have a cheap set of side steps eh? ;):D;):D;):D

    fitting bull bars

    Simple solution is to have a three position on/off/on switch. One of the ons is in the existing series so that they come on with the main beams. Off is obvious, the other on supplies power direct to your relay same as the main beam one only you can now turn them on when you feel like it, off...

    Rear Audio Controls (Series II TD5)

    Is this an ES or just a standard. To be perfectly honest, I havent been in the back seat of my S2 (well not to sit anyway ;) ) so havent noticed any rear seat headphone plugs?

    Disco II Face lift Guide

    I enquired about this over here with a LR wrecker and they said it was too difficult to put the S2a Disco upgrade lights onto the series 2 as the grill mounting was completely different as was the headlight mounting panel. I suppose it's nothing a grinder and a welder wouldnt fix. Would be...

    split charge relays / twin batteries

    Watts = amps x volts tot up the total watts you want to run and divide it by the 12v of your car. This will tell you how many amps you will need. Check the amp rating of your battery and alternator output. Second systems connected to winches and things are quite good as you can drain a batterry...

    Ignition Key Sticking in Barrel!!!!

    Get a pencil and scribble on the key madly. The graphite from the lead will lubricate the barrel and make the extraction (and penetration) better. Alternatively, get some graphite powder and puff-spray it into the lock before sticking the key in.
