bump

Umm, it might do, will probably need a bit of persuasion. I don't have the tools/space to do it myself though. If you give me £25 for the A-bar and spots you can have it with a free bumper :D

haha I thought someone would say that... Here you go. It's owned by a friend of mine and has been through a few previous owners. I am told it's partially made from the 3rd Series 1 off the production line, which was rotting and forlorn in a hedge. The salvaged parts of the landy were mixed...

Unfortunately I don't think I will be, Paul.

The top one of the two bumpers is for sale, minus the WIPAC lamps but complete with the A Bar and other lamps. Not sure if the lamps work, wiring inside the car has been broken for so long. A Bar is showing rust and needs taking back and painting. Has had some gloss slapped on it recently but...

Been an age again since I've posted here, mainly because I haven't done anything worth writing about. New battery and glow plugs recently (very pitted and one oil soaked glow plug had probably not been working for a while meant battery getting repeatedly flattened trying to start, so bit the...

Good shout. One side already has an MX5 'Angel eye' headlight fitted... Barf

Well.... After much poking and prodding, turned out it was a failed connection on the indicator stalk - it looked like the wire had pulled apart inside the shrink wrap. My friend (Who was wielding the multimeter) soldered a new bodgewire on to the connection. In the words of George Stevenson...

Aye I do have it somewhere but not yet learned to use it ;) I was just told so definitively that the switch was at fault to begin with I overlooked the simple things! Certainly sounded like dim/dip symptoms though.... Am going to investigate with ye olde multimeter tomorrow.

Hmm, if y'all could let me pick your brains on this one... 1996 110 300TDi The headlight stopped functioning on main beam. High beam and sidelight functions still work, so just the most useful ones missing. Dad (Previous owner) said the higher intensity bulbs cause the switch on the...

Warped discs?

Blimey, not updated this in ages! Removed the headlight covers as the rust was irritating me. Pondering a pickling vinegar bath to see if that helps. Whilst doing that, the headlight fell out as the surround was rusted. Headlight was knackered. Replaced with MX5 headlights as we had them to...

YES! No more drift rover/unable to get up small inclines land rover. New seal in, bearing greased, prop refitted and transfer box filled with lovely smelly oil. Here is a pic of me lying in the gutter bolting the prop up Thanks to me ol' pal Sam for the help.

Ugh... FINALLY got around to put the front prop back in today (after farm track wheelspin embarrassment and wet cobbles defender drifting). Had to replace the bolts on the transfer box so took the flange off, seal out, went to put the new seal in and it's a bloody diff seal not a transfer box...

Now, that looks good methinks.

Yeah I'd be getting the black paint out straight away though :P Other than that it looks pretty damn cool!

I hate stickers when they're just thrown on willy nilly, makes a mess of a good looking car. Especially if they're all 'one life, live it' ones. If you do sticker it up, spend some time thinking of placement, size etc

Don't think there's enough checkerplate.

BENDER MENDER Bruce "So which side wheel bearing do we need to do?" Me "Offside rear" Bruce "You're sure?" Me "Certain" ---3 hours later--- Me "Let me just check what the fail sheet sa.... oh bollocks" Bruce "Nearside rear?" Me "Yep" So what happened today - we replaced the offside rear...

Good shout, wish I hadn't bought a new stalk! Land Rover Owner • View topic - Indicator Self Cancelling Won't Work! People seem to have varying degrees of success, if I can't get it to work I guess there's the option of removing the self cancel altogether.
