    Disco I Upgrades.

    Are these 265/75/16? I've got Insa Special Trak's in that size and I had to cut back the front bumper end cap and plastic sill trims to stop them fouling lock to lock :(

    Could be wheel balance, have any of your weights flown off?

    Disco I Upgrades.

    With a 3" lift you may encounter issues with your propshafts bindings, plus the strain on the radius arm/trailing arm bushes will be significantly increased over standard. You could combat this by fitting modified/corrected radius arms and cranked trailing arms and fitting spacers to the...

    Tow bar/jate ring fittings

    This pretty accurately describes the nightmare I've been having for the past week... Will have another crack at removal this weekend (maybe try and get the sledgehammer and some heat in there) failing that I will have to call some local welders/engineers/fabricators etc. Ben

    Tow bar/jate ring fittings

    Thought about this, but the tank guards I've seen (one particularly heavy duty looking one on ebay caught my eye) use these metal tubes as part of their mounting points.

    Tow bar/jate ring fittings

    Believe me I've tried that, those things are well and truly in seized in there and don't want to come out. Access is a bit tricky so I couldn't use a sledge, but I did use a heavyweight club hammer with a large punch and they didn't budge. Ben

    disco 1994 2.5 tdi blown seal on expansion tank

    It sounds like you haven't bled the cooling system properly. Do a search on here as there are a few threads that cover the procedure. Ben

    Tow bar/jate ring fittings

    To remove my towbar I've just had to cut through the two fixings underneath (bolts through metal tubes on underside of chasis rails) as they appeared to be completely seized into the tube they sit inside. My issue now is that a) I can't refit and use my towbar should I need to, and b) I've got...

    Discovery 300tdi custom

    Nice Disco, thought those seats looked familiar as I've had a few VW's. What size wheels/tyres are you running?

    disco diesel not starting :-(

    Sounds like you've got the timing incorrect. Have you checked the timing since replacing the belt?

    Island 4x4

    I've never used them but have been impressed by their website and product range - sell engine components for a rebuild such as bearing shells, valves, rings etc which is a bonus.

    I thought you could re-use the head bolts on these engines a few times?

    lom mpg and low power

    My 300 with manual box gave same signs, changing the fuel lift pump helped a lot with both performance and economy. Test it b by whipping off the hose on the output side and cranking the engine over on the starter - check the flow rate - mine was not flowing ANY fuel at all. Disconnect the...
