The engine conversion was carried in 1999, vehicle log book was changed at that time. The current engine is tired.

My intention was to do it myself, but with work and having a young family, it's not happening anytime soon. The engine is a 6.5 n/a chevy diesel mated to 4 speed zf auto.

No luck. Rang a few small local garages, not interested, too busy with services and MOT's and out of comfort zone. Rang several local LR specialists (not many left now in my area) most too busy making loads of money restoring and gentrifying Land Rovers rather than patching up mud pluggers...

Please can anyone recommend a independent LR garage/specialist that can swap a like for like (mods all done) V8 mechanical diesel engine in a 90 defender. (engine supplied)

I wasn’t aware google sold anything Land Rover related. Fourby.co.uk have been out stock for some time.

Does anyone know who sells the defendoor fuel filler cover?

Thanks for your help. Can I run a permanent live to terminal 2? or is the brown/light green wire that feeds T2 powered up when the wiper switch is in the off position? I am struggling to trace wire back, old vehicle wires spliced different colours etc.

Hi can anyone tell me where the reverse light switch on the ZF autobox is please? I have checked the rest of the circuit.

Last night was the first night I driven my recently purchased 1986 defender 'Bitsa' home in the dark and the rain. It was a memorable journey in a buttock clenching way. I had just collected it after a cheap respray job, unfortunately they had got the workshop chimp too refit all lights and...

Help. Does anyone have a good usable Torqueflite 3 speed auto and lt230 transfer box ratio 1.0003 surplus to requirement that I can buy. Mine has been smashed in an accident.
