Hi All, Success, I drained the oil from SFF today, removed the canistor filter and installed the new unit from Flexolite. I can confirm that it arrived with the correct threaded bolt / feed pipe and it screwed in without a problem. The Oil filter plate The complete kit Trying...

grrr

Got a bit further this evening. The o/s wing replaced and started sorting out the lights. The indicator fuse was missing. Just need to sort the headlights, we damaged the switch when trying to find out where a wire went

It is a good idea to have a spreader plate. Remove the tailgate cleat on the hinge edge too as this will get in the way of the door opening The 110s also have a third hinge halfway up that goes into the tub cappings to reduce wear if you mount your spare on the door

Gettin late when I took this

LOL, I have a large ammo can filled to the gunnels with a wide range of metric and imperial spanners, 3/8 socket set, short handle hammer, screw drivers, pliers, crimps and tool various different sizes of nuts and bolts. It sits in whichever Landy I am in, be it the 110 or 80, even the D1 if the...

Did mine a couple of years ago after swmbo knocked one out in an RTV. absolute pigs, sadly I didnt have the special tool just a cranked flat screwdriver I also had to do a but of thwacking to reinstate the roof to the correct shape

A friend in the local club had a similar thing, it turned out the rotor arm was failing and arcing. There was an interesting thread on the LRSOC forum recently, if you have the use of a garage try firing it up in the dark and seeing if you can see any arcing round the dizzy It turned out his...

Oooh look what just arrived at work this morning from Flexolite. Now I can replace the old paper element oil filter and canister with a nice screw on/off modern filter. I shall update update once its fitted at the weekend. I also got a nice new set of H4 lights to replace the...

Swmbo and I had a great time in the USA where we visited my brother. Ersatz and I had a great time footling around in BVH in the Texas sunshine. Virtually every American we met was impressed by the "Cool Truck", a few even knew what it was! Although we only actually saw one other land...

And I got the front prop on, blimey those viscose transfer boxes are stiff to turn. You could see where the original front prop shat had whacked into the chassis when the nose uj finally failed.

If you pick up a set of alloys such as this above, be warned that you will need to get the correct wheel nuts too as the alloys are of course thicker than the steel rims. If you are running s3 axles then the studs will be the same as a defender A set of wheel nuts is relatively cheap off...

I agree, I love my Landies, but every now and then my dealer gives me a hippo2 as a courtesy car when the 110 is in. And it is fun having all the modern driver distractions etc. Those of us who are slightly maturer then the rest will have been cursing Land Rovers lack of development for...

BTW the most time is spent in actually dismantling the bodywork just to get to the gearbox. If yo do have a removable cross member then you can get away without removing the seat Base which takes the most time. I am referring to how I did my S11a 25 years ago. I am not sure if you have a...

It is not hard, just very time consuming the first time you do it. It helps to have a friend as well. You are going to require ostensibly 7/16, 1/2, 9/16 & 3/8 sockets and spanners. Start by getting the floor out, you may need to angle grind the original speed screws off so you can see...
