    Vacuum pump play in piston

    Went back and looked at my old pump. the piston has about 3mm of play back and forward in it. Hate to say it but that loud ticking could be a head gasket. Your describing the same sound I had and the head gasket was blown at the back of number 4 cylinder. I put my hand round the head and could...

    Series Steering Wheel on a Defender

    Ok. I did mine when it was getting rebuilt so it was easy to fit. Even doing it to yours wouldn’t be the worst job in the world. Just a bit of a dig to get to it but the actual column out- new one in was no time at all and worth doing. I much prefer the old style wheel. I managed to find a...

    Vacuum pump play in piston

    I’ve just changed mine on my 300tdi. I had a hard brake pedal and braking was a bit dubious. No play on the old pump or new one and braking back to ‘normal’! Was your braking being affected. I got a new one from Turner’s.

    I would just like to say

    It is quite short and yes it does lock, I only use this now at home and im very aware of the need to take it off if i go into public spaces, like the lads are saying it could be illegal under certain circumstances. Ive had it for a very long time and a bit of an heirloom to me now, old man gave...

    Series Steering Wheel on a Defender

    Hi, don’t know if this will help you much but here’s some info. My 98 90 had the same wheel as yours and was pretty done. I changed it to the older 4 spoke (36 spline) style wheel. To do so I had to change the steering column to get the wheel to fit. Think the old 4 spoke looks ok. It was only...

    Blood, sweat & beers ! 1984 Defender 90 restoration

    Yeah not bad. I did my 90 on a new chassis last year and changed very little except the doors. Changed them for lift up handle slidey window types. Much prefer them. Changed the steering wheel to the old 80’s type 4 spike as liked them too other than that it’s all original. Only other fancy...

    That does not look too bad. Chassis will be fine with a good clean and prime n’ paint. Are you keeping it mechanically original with regards the engine.

    fold down bull bar

    Take a look on the stalking directory. Vehicles n’ parts for sale on that too so you might find something that could do your job or something that would give you an idea too.

    fold down bull bar

    Some folk think sozzys come from Tesco. Bull bars a good idea. I shoot too and the inside of the motor turns into a hole if you stick your clients in the back…and basil brush whiffs a bit too 👍
