I need to space my wheels as I'm getting tyre rub on full lock at the front. I think 10mm spacers would cure the issue (I don't want to get bigger offset wheels), but I think my studs will be too short then. Can I buy longer studs from somewhere, or is there another option? Ta.

For some reason I can't add any pictures to my album... the page just goes blank once I click upload. Anyone else got this issue?

... is the rear tub on an 88"... As in, would it be possible for one person to lift it / slide it off? Failing that, I do have an old winch I could fit to the branch of a tree :)

I need to source some steel for some chassis repairs (about 2.5mm thickness I think)... where do you guys get yours from? Do you buy new from a supplier, or do you go to a metal recyclers and get it from there? I have some 3" x 2" box section that I could cut up and use, but I think it's too...

When ever my Series 2a stands for a few days, I have to manually pump fuel in to the carb as it seems to recede down the line. The pump is fine, and once running it never cuts out. (2.25 Petrol!) It sounds like it needs a non-return valve of some sort... any one else have this issue?

Set of 4 16" wheels, 3 with tyres and tubes and one without. 1 tyre is an Avon Rangemaster with a few mm of tread, and the other 2 are Warriors which are a bit perished, but still usable. Tyres are 7.50/16 and wheels have been painted black. £40 ono 88" van roof in white. Minor dent to...

I have a series 2a (1970), and the front radiator panel is corroded along the bottom edge (as most are), and it's been fitted with a series 3 grill... What I want to do is, fit a series 2 radiator panel / gill (with the headlights), and relocate my roof spot lights in to the panel as well as...

Where's the best place to get all my door and windows seals / rubbers from? I've looked on famousfour but they don't list the Land Rover part numbers (of which I have all the ones I need to replace). Your help, as ever, is much appreciated.

I've had a bad fuel smell outside my 2A for a while now, and have had issues tracing it. No leaks in the tank, and there's no smell inside... even though the rubber hose is very perished. This leads me to think it's evaporating petrol from the tank via the filler cap. So the question is, can...

I'm watching a nice set of wheels and tyres, but they're in Rushden and I'm in Somerset! If anyone is going my way from 'up there' please let me know.

I have a bit of a dilemma... we're looking to replace our 6 year old Touran for a 4x4 as we have recently moved to 'the country'. We've looked at: Forrester, Outlander, X-Trail, Sante Fe, Sorrento etc... but they all lack the boot and seating capacity we currently have in the Touran. So, I've...

Ok, stupid request I know... but can someone post a few pictures of the engine bay from a late 2A 2.25 petrol? Thanks.

I need the following part numbers / part descriptions for the below, as I can't find them anywhere: The chrome strip for the front opening door glass which goes on the front of the opening piece of glass, and the rubber seal that goes with it. I'm missing both parts from the drivers side...

I've found a cheap set of front and rear seat belts in my local rag, but the buckles all have pre-tensioners... can I just use these as is but cut the wiring off? Or do I have to remove the buckle from the pre-tensioner completely? This is for installation in to my 2a.

I'm planning on re-painting my 2A back to it's original Marine Blue. Has anyone got any tips on the best application method (other than spray) to get a goodish finish - not going for concourse, but want a decent finish? Also, I've managed to get some original rear Station Wagon sides with the...

I drove my 2A for the first time in the dark the other night, and I couldn't work out how to turn the headlights on. I have a switch labelled Side Lights which is a 3 position toggle. When switched from off to position 2 the side lights come on. When switched to position 3 nothing happens...

The chap I bought my 2A from threw in a set of wheels he used to use as storage wheels over the winter, and they've got a strange tyre pattern on. Any ideas what they're originally from?

I need to replace the spare tyre on my 2A (7.50/R16), but I don't want to buy a new one. Does anyone know where I can get a part worn / second hand one from (tried eBay but they are all too far away)... I live in Cider Country (aka, Somerset). Ta.

I picked up my first ever Land Rover last night... a 1970 IIA. I've never driven one before so am unsure of the typical characteristics, but I thought I better check the following wasn't 'standard' behavior. The steering has about 3 inches of play in it before the wheels turn...! At a guess...

I've recently acquired a 1970 IIA which has some after market front seats in. What I'd like to do is fit the standard 3 seats to the front but, include 3 inertia 3 point seatbelts at the same time. Has anyone here converted from lap / fixed belts to inertia before, and if so any advice? I was...
