aren't 7.50s on 5.5 rims? 235 85r16 fit but you should really have wider wheels. iirc if it ends in j it's a tubeless wheel, f is tubed

aren't muds crap in the snow? better off with at's

stainless will corrode the alu. should be fine on the zinc unless you live by the sea. i'd just use normal zinc plated and spray em/dinitrol/bilthamber

i'm sure the mechanic will have ears

stick it inside?

nice 2.5na can she cope with the speed? :D buy a press and stuff for doing all the rubbers.. then i can come over and you can do mine!

loads of threads on it, it's so common a quick ebay search gives the pre done brackets http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SPCK300-DVY-300TDI-CONVERSION-INTO-DEFENDER-90-110-ENGINE-MOUNTINGS-LT77-GEARBOX-/301704271680

some info and predone kit https://www.steveparkers.com/conversions/300-tdi-engine-conversion-into-90110-land-rover-4-cylinder-with-lt77-gearbox/ btw what's in atm a 2.5na?

no, don't think so. probably have to fiddle with pipes and exhaust though. it's been done a fair bit so there should be detailed guides and kits about

a 300 will be up pretty tight by the bulkhead then, so won't be in factory position. so, you'll need to extend hoses and bits n bobs, plus the mounts

depends if you want to keep the lt77 or not.

it should still cough. you checked it's chucking fuel out the back of the exhaust? i'd give it a squirt, does no harm.

doesn't sound too bad to me, just needs a little tweak to reduce smoke if excessive. playing with the pin, smoke screw and star is fine, no need to chuck fuel across the entire range imo

if you are sure the timing is correct, and the fuel solenoid works, then it's probably fuel related. you stuck the fuel pipes on the right way around? cracked the injector nuts until fuel comes out? tried giving it a bit of squirty?

remember multigrade is fine too 75w/90

afaik, no the chassis doesn't need stamped but you should have the receipt.. in reality i doubt anyone cares. but the coil conversion would mean the chassis is altered and so you should lose the s2 plates. that's if anyone bothers checking it and if the conversion wasn't done before the law...

btw, see when you upload a file (image), if you click on full image it'll show properly in the post :)

price? age? :)

just seen the vids, is it still smoking like that?

they won't be rock hard, but will be very firm. iirc the cap is around 14psi. that's how they are meant to be, not soft and easily squishy. :)
