Hello guys it's been a while since I've posted here. Merry Christmas. My beloved 110 over lander has been in an accident (I wasn't with the vehicle irritatingly) so I'm looking for a good garage for repairs in the north wales area. I am very picky about who works on my vehicle. I will be paying...

Anyone have any advice as to the pro's and con's for the above? I've managed to persuade the Doris we should get newer 110 (puma) but cant make my mind up between the CSW and double cab pick up. I like the CSW because it has more seats etc etc but the pick up also appeals for the reason of...

Guys 2001 overland spec 110 - full rack, tent, canopy, long range fuel tank, water tank, winch and bumper etc. Problem is it rolls like a pig in a corner. It has HD emu springs and shocks, no roll/sway bar at front or back. It drives fine in a straight line and on a washboard road its great...

I'm about to lose my storage for my 90 that lives in north wales. What's the verdict on storing vehicles outside that aren't used much. Should I buy a good tarp to cover it and keep the weather off or is this likely to do more harm than good with the landy sweating and rotting under the sheet??

My 2001 Td5 110 has a factory alarm which I have never used (thought key fob was knackered) or heard sound. Whilst replacing the batttery today the alarm started to sound on reconnection. It went off after a while but now the alarm light in the centre of the speedo is flashing permanently. If I...

Hi. About to embark on my hols in my 1983 RRC on original 3.5 on carbs. The fuel pump (below rear door area on chassis) is making a constant clicking noise. I have noticed it for a while on initial start up but now it is constant. As I'm about to go on a 800 mile ish round trip I don't fancy a...

Guys - you often see Defender's for sale in various Landy Mags entitled 'For Export Only'. Why are they for export only? Are they significantly different to vehicles in the UK and is there any chance they could be registered in the UK? I have it in the back of my mind that they may be 'new'...

Guys I am looking at buying what I believe could be one of the last North American Spec 90's. It has a 4.0 v8 gems engine and autobox. It's not a cheap buy so keen to check it out. Can you point me in the direction of a website that can confirm it is a genuine factory NAS and even better can I...

Can anyone tell me what size and what thread nuts I need to fix my door tops to the door bottoms. Also is there anywhere to order online? Local suppliers only seem to have metric! Thanks.

Rebuilt my series 2a front hub last week to replace the hub oil seal. I replaced the main rubber hub seal at the back off the hub but couldnt for the life of me work out where the small felt oil seal (RTC3515) that was provided in the kit should go. There wasnt one on when I dismantled and the...

Where /how do I replace the oil that has been leaking out of the wheel hub on my 2a? Is it the filler on the inside of the hub assembly at the top above the chrome swivel ball? I assume it is here rather than at the diff. Thanks and yes I know I need to replace the hub seal and check the...

Hi. recently aquired a 1963 2a. I need to replace the front hub seal which is leaking. I've ordered a hub seal set - is there anything else I should replace as a matter of course? Car is currently in Leamington Spa and I am out of the country. When I return to the UK at the end of the month I...

Hi guys. Just aquired a 2a. All good so far but will need some work before long I am sure. Can anyone recommend a good specialist garage in the North Wales area that can be trusted to do some renovation work ie new bulkhead? Would love to do it myself but time is an issue as I'm spending long...

Can anyone tell me what The capacity of a fuel tank should be on 1997 V8 90 - under seat version. Thanks

Anyone on here know if it is possible to convert my truck cab drop down tailgate to a swing away, and if so what parts do I need. From a quick look it looks like I could replace existing hinges a and latch with those off a full size door ie - 2 side hinges, a door latch and striker plate????

Sh*t Sh*t Sh*t. I rolled my 90 in the desert today. I'm gutted! Just finished spending on it and it was mint - now there is not a straight panel on it. I was heading up a dune and it started to slide sideways so the climb needed to be aborted and as I turned out of the climb the offside tyre...
