There is a bodge you can do where you remove the large spring inside the new seal and cut the seal with a junior hacksaw to get it round the swivel ball --- do a search and your find it ... only a temp fix till you've got more time to do the job proper

+1 Halfords | Gunson Eezibleed best £20 I've spent .... I had to bleed my system approx 7 times ... pretty straight forward how it works .. plenty of info. on how to use it .. I didnt use anymore than 10 p.s.i out of a spare tyre didn't want to risk blowing the master cylinder reservoir up and...

Check out my thread I know where your coming from - working on a drive unlike some lucky sods with big lovely warm garages lol in a way its probably a good thing though otherwise I'd be playing all year round

Looking good mate - I've been a tad busy doing D.I.Y (Should stand for Don't Involve Yourself) around the house whilst buying lots of goodies for my Disco.... I'm looking forward to playing with my Disco again especially now its warming up nothing worse than working in the rain and cold

Spotted this on Gumtree - any good for ya ? land rover 300tdi galvanised chassie in County Antrim | Other Car Parts & Accessories for Sale | Gumtree.com

Recently done mine its a 6203 2rs (x2 rubber seals) all bearing suppliers will have them in stock its a fairly standard bearing.. they should only be a couple of quid try and get a Timkin or FAG if poss. I had to grind a small notch behind the circlip groove to be able to get the circlip out (I...

Ok I'm a knob ... should of explained that my brakes were like that when I first got my Disco when it was totally standard, I was hoping it was the old flexi hoses ballooning but after doing the suspension lift etc and fitting new stainless hoses after the initial bleeding it was still the same...

Hi there. Had exactly the same problem with mine ... fitted new hoses because of the lift I put on mine and bled brakes,still the same .... eventually after bleeding and bleeding and bleeding using about 3 litres of fluid and an eezibleed I've now got a good pedal ... It still creeps down but a...

Thanks for the quick replies ... I've already tweaked the fuel pump and removed/blanked the EGR as long as it'll sit at 60 thats all I'm bothered about ... anymore is scary with the lift on :eek::D

I'm going to buy some new tyres for my Disco 1 and I'm 90% sure they are going to be Maxxis buckshot mudders 285/75/16's (metric equiv to 33's) because of the price and usability on road and the good reviews I've read about them for offroad .... I commute 50 motorway miles and was wondering what...

Hello Mr Noisy, Got to ask how does fitting 33's affect the gearing ? Obviously your lose some acceleration but my main concern is whats it like in 5th? again obviously less revs for more mph but does 5th pull ok or are you dropping it down a gear ? Cheers Ant

Hello to all you Nunny,Cov and Warwickshire ppl been reading your thread over the last couple of days . Just saying Hi and if anyone is ever doing a spot of green laning at the start of Jan during the week (work calls most weekends) I'll be up for it ...... if I'm allowed of course p.s I'm...

Hi HH did you sort some tyres out ? If not might have some right up your street

As already said Disklok and put the key on your house keys ...... obviously not on your car keys :)

I spent £18 on an eezibleed & £18 on 5 litres of brake fluid from halfords (it was £12 for 1 litre so it made sense too buy the 5L as I had fitted new hoses and wanted to replenish the whole system) so thats £36 already... my brakes were crappy before I put the new braided hoses on and was...

yep looking good ...... what size are your new boots ? are your arches trimmed and any mods for hanging the spare ?

Had similar probs with mine .. When I bought my Disco the seller did say it'll probably need a new battery, so when it started to struggle to start I went out and got a new 1, couldn't use a bigger CCA one as it wouldn't physically fit because of the air con pipes . As I wasn't using my Disco...

Cheers W.L I've actually got a set of Mickey Thompson 35's but I don't want to cut the arches and from what I've been reading they won't be much good for long runs because you loose your 5th gear (unless you can say otherwise) I commute 60 miles a day and 50 of them are on the motorway that's...

DiscoNickY any chance of sum pics of your Disco ? Need to see how far the tyres stick out the arches ...... do they rub?..... do they fit inside the arches when fully articulated ? Have you cut the arches at all ? Cheers

Well Mr Noisy have to say lovely Disco - The main reason I joined this forum was because of you and Green Hornet both your Disco's are the mutts nuts - I do like the idea of cutting a slot in the mounting point for the jate rings - was this your idea or already done ? Great idea .... makes it...
