As Gareth Coe says, sounds like there's something buggered with the back end which could be anything to do with the transfer case, propshaft, half shafts or hubs. Pushing down the yellow lever is only giving you front wheel drive rather than four wheel drive. Try dropping the clutch in mud or...

Hi, Just turned 25 myself. Got a 1972 Series 3 Diesel SWB. It's my first Landy but have been buying and doing up classic motorbikes for the last 3 years so i'm no stranger to getting the old spanners out of a Sunday morning. Simple to fix, cheap insurance and tax exempt in my case - you can't...

Or you could just bin the b*stard things and replace with normal hubs.

That's a good idea if the water actually makes it to the gutter, most of it just seems to hang in big drips off the ceiling. I've got a cloth at the moment in the gutter which soaks up water then i just have to remember to wring it dry. The downpipe thing is a good idea though although i...

Hi Slob, thanks for that. you posted while i was still replying to first post so hope you don't think i was ignoring you! Cheers mate will have a look now. Rob.

Hi, thanks. i will try and find some of that foam and do it that way. Have found this paint on the internet put i think it is more for indoor use in bathrooms etc, it actually absorbs water and then releases it when the atmosphere is less humid...sounds a bit technical, probably won't work and...

Hi, Hope one or two of you might have a useful tip for stopping condensation forming on the ceiling of my series 3. When you get in when it's cold, the seats are normally wet, you can see hundreds of big drops on the ceiling and then obviously when you start the engine and get moving - you get...

Send him this link, should put an end to matters. :D http://chameleon-translations.com/Index-Companies-pajero.shtml

Hi Slob, A mate of mine has already sorted me out a couple already, but thanks very much for the offer all the same. Hopefully to be fitted this week. Will keep posted on progress, cheers. Rob

Hi, have a look in the off-roading section of the forum, plenty of info in there on Cowm and Briercliffe etc. Rob

Hi, Finally got to the problem with the four wheel drive problem on series 3. The passenger side freewheeling hub was furked. Even in lock position - was still freewheeling - took it off and looked inside was full of rust and mangled bits of metal! So needs replacing - but with standard hubs...

Hi, I've just come on here to post the exact same problem with my series 3. Took it off roading yesterday in a quarry for the first time and it wouldn't get up anything more than a mild incline without the back wheels spinning. Didn't seem to be any power to the front whatsoever. Was very...

I’m not surprised at the amount of Landy owners that also ride bikes, it’s nice to remind yourself how it feels to go above 50 miles an hour once in a while, or what 0-60 in under a minute feels like – or even how it feels to be warm and dry in a thunderstorm!!! Seriously though, our Landy’s...

Yeah, it's a good place to look for used Landy's, there's loads on there and seem to be selling cheaper than the magazine classifieds were asking for. I'd been looking for a few weeks when this one came up. Coincidentally it was only about 5 mins round the corner from where i live! Paid £1200...

Just to say hello, bought my first Landrover yesterday on eBay! Used to take my father's Disco off-roading a few years back, his friend had a lightweight and i've always fancied my own since then. Thrown myself in at the deep end so to speak with a 1972 series 3 diesel. It's a solid machine...
