Hello I have the engine r380 gearbox and the series transfer case all nicely lined up but have just realised that the front prop will touch the corner of the sump. I have spoken to a propshaft company who will make a thinner prop but it will still only miss the corner of the sump by about 15mm...

After fiddling around most of the day trying to level up a 300tdi in a swb series 3 would a good guide be about level with the crankshaft pulley/front cross member. One of the images was taken at an angle but barring the odd mm the top of the pulley is level with the front cross member. The...

I know various GPS topics have been covered before but if I was to install something like the Pioneer AVIC-F500BT or a later version in the cubby hole box at the top of the dash - modifications needed are on google - then as my old Pioneer radio has given up the ghost am I correct in thinking I...

My front offside air spring has sprung a leak so another job to be done. Just interested in the wear that's at the bottom of the spring - cannot see what it would rub against unless it's itself as it inflates and deflates - the rubber is so worn at the bottom it's back to the steel wires inside...

My 99 P38 pioneer cassette head unit has given up the ghost. The unit came with the car which I purchased about six months ago. Any suggestions on a replacement please - have considered an original alpine unit off a well known auction site - assume it would have been the alpine unit - other...

I have finally managed to remove the drivers door handle and have the STC3064G door handle cam kit. I know this has been discussed before but how do you actually remove the old cam from the handle - it's seems to be held in place by a hollow pin but how do you slide the pin out. My best idea so...

I need to change the input shaft on my r380 from the longer shaft to the shorter one. The box was rebuilt about a year ago and has not been used so still nice and clean. Is it a really bad idea to have a go myself or should I find a co willing to tackle the job. Any idea if the torque bolt size...

I was browsing the web not so long ago and found a picture of a Defender LWB cabriolet - no tops to the doors and the hood very nicely folded over the rear tub - rear seats and all. Looked £40k worth at a guess. Any ideas who does these - cannot spring to £40k but it might give me a few ideas -...

Just checking with those in the know - tdi engine and or five speed box and or disc brakes - I am trying to work out if I can change the engine/gearbox and put discs on the front and still be legit - the points system mentions axles & suspension but not brakes - I am keeping the leafs. I think...

My mate has a 96 disco V8 manual with all the symptoms of the spyder problem...unfortunately he does not have the spyder under the radio - just the plugs where it should be. He bought the disco secondhand and it's only run a few miles since. No sparks at the plugs -It cranks fine, sometimes...
