Sold, Thank you

Afternoon everyone, Anyone ever fitted a Mantec swing away on their Series rear safari door? The instructions don't give me the measurements to drill the door for the mounting plate. I suppose i could fit the actual carrier and see where it will fits with the door and measure from there...

Evening knowledgable folk. Slowly taking my spare engine apart to check all the bits that may need replacing and began removing the cam lifters and guides etc. Initially guide was stuck and came out after a squirt of oil…..and so did the follower leaving the roller sat on the cam lobe (it was...

Just taking apart a spare 2.25, quick question but why are the valves different? My other 2.25 petrol (81 Reg so slightly newer) has all the same valve tops. Thank you

Good evening all, Quick question - would a series 2a 2.25 petrol fit straight into a series 3 (1981) petrol? I have an opportunity to get a used 2.25 petrol as a spare? Thanks Rich

Hi all anyone got a cubby box with cup holders they want to sell? Don’t need a new one just for my winter / shooting hack. Thanks Rich

Hi all, after a bit of advice regarding a series 3 indicator relay. I was fitting a hazard switch but the indicator relay in the Landy is a modern one with 3 terminals. One goes to an orange indicator light. If I replace with an original relay (2 terminals) they don’t work. Please see pic...

Morning all, I have a genuine Lucas hazard switch but the wire colours (only remaining 3) don’t add up to the harness I have from Auto sparks. I’m sure the 3 wires will do the same job (they go to the relays) but does anyone know what wire from the switch should go to the plug? Failing that...

Hello knowledgeable folk. Can I remove my rear floor (SWB) and replace the supports (and top hats) with the tub on? Noticed that a few have holes in……. Thanks Rich

So I managed to find a decent 2 1/2 petrol 3MB cylinder head at Malvern this weekend. It’s cleaned up really well and not bad for £20. The number on my head is ERC 5899 but the other is 568750. Both look the exact same and the spare seems to have less wear on the valves etc. Also, should I...

Random one - I've noticed my front axle is level on one side with the front wheel arch (FWH line up with the front wing) but the other side is about one inch shorter. I used a straight bar and measured both sides. The axle brackets, suspension, and wheels (all the same) are all in line and the...

Hi knowledgable folk, So whipped the head off and after borrowing 2 x valve spring compressors (both bent) I've order a decent one. So....are 2.25 valve springs a pain to compress? Also I've noticed one of my exhaust valve spring is sitting higher than the rest (please see pic). Does anyone...

So....ive had leaking valve stem seals for a few years now (puff of smoke on start up then clears). She does use some oil but runs really well with 130 PSI in each pot. Starts well from cold and when it's been left for 10 - 50mins. However anything after 15 mins and it takes an age to catch...

Morning all knowledgeable people. my series 3 runs great in 2WD. Even in 4WD up to about 40mph. So after a run yesterday I thought I’d put the FWH in and leave it in 2WD to lube the top bearing. At about 40-45 there was a vibration from the front axle which disappeared when I disconnected the...

Hi all, so I ‘think’ I know my issue but would like to check with you knowledgable peps on here. So the other day tried to start but Bty was flat. So changed to a good spare, flat after a few days. Starting checking the Alt and it’s giving out 8v with minimal Amps so I’m thinking Alt. But...

Just a shout out to let you know of a fab company that you can get all your oil seals and bearing from for half the price. Ive had a Fairly overdrive clutch bearing and recently 2 x Aero parts Capstan oil seals for £4.20 (Was £15 on another 'bespoke' landy spares website...
