the oil filter was so firmly attached i had to remove the housing from the block and use a vice to remove the filter. In doing so the gasket ring between the the engine block and the filter housing has been damaged and ideally needs replacing. are these easily available? btw what is the sensor...

it is first gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear and 5th gear. mostly at high revs. thanks for your help

Thanks for this. Good point about the timing belt, i had not thought of this.

I now have bought a smooth white roof yr 2000 without sides. Now looking for sides.

:welcome2: I have a landy that has no service history so as part of my servicing I wish to change the gearbox oil on my 1984 SWB petrol 2.25l gearbox and transfer box. I have identified fillers and drain plugs My 5 speed gearbox looks to have 2 drain plugs, one underneath and another nearby...

To be clear am i looking for a defender roof and sides? I have seen some ebay sales that also include front windscreen. I assume i remove the cab roof and rear window from my SWB pickup (leaving the windscreen) and then add the roof and sides. I then must source a rear door/ rear seats etc. btw...

thanks. i will get some new BF Goodrich tyres and then see. A local garage I know will be able to change out the bearing quite cheap i hope.

in fact it is 3rd gear and 5th gear, so perhaps it is the layshaft bearings that need to be replaced. Is this a complicated (expensive?( job? thanks

thanks for this. The utube videos are great. where can i buy the new covers and new foams from? cheers

Are there LED bulbs that can be directly swopped in to my 1984 90 without any other modifications? has anybody good/bad experience of such bulbs?

thanks 3rd gear only and only in high range as far as i can recall.

I have a great 2.25 petrol 90 from 1984 SWB pick up. It drives well and is comfortable yet there is great high frequency, low magnitude vibration of the gear stick in 3rd gear (high). (five forward gears in the gearbox) . The suspension is good with new springs. The tyres are in need of...

I have a great SWB 90 pickup from 1984. The front seats in it are original yet a bit tired/worn and split at the seams. What options are there to get more comfort yet stick with original look? Are these same seats available to buy? to repair? Or should i forget the image and go for new...

thanks James

I have a great 1984 90 pick up (Petrol 2.25). I am keen to find (perhaps on ebay) a hard top to fit on. The plan then will be to allow it to carry more than 3 passengers. I will want side windows rather than the van option. I have a few questions about this. What hard tops will fit and which...

I have a great SWB 1984 2.25 90. One of the ignition keys is broken out of the original fob c/w light. Any tips on replacement fobs that will fit this key? or replacement keys to fit the fob? I know about express keys but what i am looking for here are original key fobs that will fit this...

with a 1984 Landie, are there any smallish jobs that members have done to give big increases in comfort/mpg/handling etc. It all works fine yet i am tempted to put some new replacement bits in. Already changed battery and oil. Considering new alternator/new seats/new heater/clutch. Also how...

can you advise about cost of spares parts? Paddock spares seem very reasonable. If i get my SWB 90 serviced/repaired in a garage do i pay similarly low prices for spares? And also there is a windscreen on ebay going for 40£ +15 delivery. How does this compare with say QUICKFIT/garage costs...

i have a 1984 90 that could do with some new seats. What can you suggest for most comfort/ease of fitting/not too expensive?

also i have the original keys. is it possible to get more replacement sets? i have the id tag with the number. There are three keys per set; ignition, doors and bonnet lock.
