Hi all, I keep seeing adverts for exhaust pipes to replace the centre boxes on 200's,300's and TD5's. Is a pipe available for a Td 90 with a Disco transplant, or do I need to fabricate a pipe to fit?.

Evening all, I have been told that you can get a short bellhousing for an R380 gearbox that will marry up with a 200Tdi (in its original position) which means the sticks will remain in the correct location without any cutting and carving. They also reckon these bellhousings are few and far...

Morning all, having fitted a 200TDI in my '88 90 this weekend, I have noticed that I am losing clutch fluid. I have checked the master cylinder, pulled back rubber cap on piston shaft and all is dry, no tell tale damp marks on drivers footwell and slave cylinder dry as a bone. Pipe between...

Hi all, If I were to remove my rocker cover breather pipe (2.5 TD) from the inlet into the air filter housing, drill a hole into the chassis rail below the air filter and fit the breather pipe into the chassis, this would 1) stop the air filter from getting oily, 2) give inside of chassis a coat...

Hi Guys, Can anyone tell me the thread size of Gear knob / Gear stick on LT77 box? Sorry to ask but Landy 60miles away with all manuals and no other Landies nearby. Thanks in advance, Vic

Hi all, Just a really quick one or two: LT77 box - standard fitment in '97 TD ? LT77 box - reverse is push left and forward? LT77 box - ATF and not oil? Bit confused as checked oil levels today and gearbox oil looks weird - looks like mix of ATF and EP90, sort of reddy brown, thicker than...

Hi all, has anyone got a clue where I can purchase a set of fitted rubber matts (over gearbox tunnel etc) for a 2.5 TD 1987?

Can anyone please advise me, I'm pretty sure the injector pump cold start on my '87 90 2.5TD has packed up. Is this thing changable (if it is where is it and what does it look like) or is it part of the pump itself and I need to change the complete unit. Cheers
