    A mystery to solve...

    So.... I installed some TF Big Bore shocks on my rear axle (One Ten 1985). With the shocks were the washers and bushes. The bottom (that went onto the axle) had two washers and two bushes. So I fitted them with the washer on top, then bush, then through the axle fitting, then 2nd bush, 2nd...

    Gear lever rests between 1st and 2nd.

    Had a new clutch installed after my clutch fork broke. All well and good. Drove it home and the gear lever now rests between 1st and 2nd, not 3rd and 4th like it normally did. Any ideas if this is something simple, or should I take it back? it's a 300tdi, with an R380

    I have a brand new, un-fitted 110 Front pipe NTC1794, and a front silencer, NTC4614, both britpart. I bought the wrong pipes, so would like someone to use them, rather than just throw them. I'm in North Dorset, just north of Sturminster Newton

    DIY Exhaust

    So I have an MOT to get through. My exhaust has rotten through just behind the mid box. So I order a new mid box. As I was fitting that, I found the front pipe had also rotten through at the elbow coming down off the turbo. So I've got a new one of those. The new pipe and the old pipe are...

    Wanted Front axle for defender that works as LHD.

    I fitted a whole bunch of new parts from a disco to my defender recently, but the front axle was a RHD and my LHD axle couldn't help as the front axle was weirdly old and unique. To make the disco axle fit my LHD defender I either need... 1 - One of these for the 'wrong' side. i.e normally the...

    What is this...? SOLVED

    I have a bucket of bits. Most are of no use and some I've happily given away. But what the hell is this thing? I think it comes with some bolts, that I have in a bag, but no idea what it's for.

    Roll cage rear chassis mounts

    Has anyone seen these kinds of mounts before? Should they be mounted so that the strut sits 'on-top' of the cross member, or mounted so that they are sitting in front of it? There is enough wiggle room to convince me either way.

    Chassis holes

    I'm fitting a roll cage to my 110 and while getting things in place, noticed a little problem. My rear cross member doesn't seem to have the holes all the way through where the roll cage bolts too. On this photo (on the left side) there are two holes almost on top of each other. One my...

    Body work ideas needed

    I've finish my double cab to station wagon conversion and have one last little issue to figure out. When it was a double cab it had a canvas back, and there were holes drilled into the body to hold the canvas. It also had a roll cage frame bolted to it. I have another (now longer) roll cage...
