    More LT77 woes...

    Gah...less than 10k miles after fitting a recon LT77 to my 110 I have a couple of issues that have suddenly manifested themselves... 1-Crunching going from 3rd to 4th unless I change gear slowly 2-Extremely difficult to go from 3rd to 2nd. No crunching, it just won't go, and there's a faint...

    A "clonk" from underneath...

    1986 110 CSW, and I get a single "clonk" from underneath when turning and loading the suspension up a bit. What is this likely to be and where shall I start looking? And how do I test it? Thanks

    Dirt D-Fenders...do they work?

    Having just got my truck nice and clean, it's now filthy again up the doors having simply driven down some dirty country roads. Grrr. I have 265/75/16 Cooper Discoverer STTs, on Boosts, and 30mm spacers (it's an early 110 so needs the spacers to get the alloys on). I don't really want/like...

    Which shock absorbers?

    My 110 has leaky rear shocks so it's probably time to replace them...and I might as well do all four. But which ones? The vehicle is not a daily driver, most of it's use is on road, although it does do some laning and pay and play...proper tyres, winch, snorkel etc are all present and correct...

    Pre-Defender 110, which front prop UJ?

    I have a hideous noise coming from the front of my 110. Partly graunching/squeaking, partly tinkle-tinkle-tinkle. It's worst under power at low speeds or on a trailing throttle...it does not seem too bad at speed at a steady throttle. I'm hoping it's front prop UJ's as it sounds horrific...

    Commercial chassis rust proofing...which one?

    I've got a 1986 110 CSW that does have a solid, never welded chassis, but it's starting to look a bit surface scabby in places and I want to "catch it" now and get it rust proofed. With the best will in the world, I'm just not going to have the time to do a full DIY/Buzzweld job, so I just want...

    I think my alternator has gone...

    I drove over to the 70th Anniversary event at Gaydon at the weekend, looking at my voltmeter on the way over which was showing an ominous 11.5V. Sure enough, I could not start it again when I got there and got jump started by a kind person to get home. The battery has accepted a charge from my...

    Combined NATO/50mm hitch. Any good?

    I'm looking at fitting one of these hitches so I can tow both a standard trailer and a Sankey on a NATO hitch without swapping hitches. Are they any good? Probably worth saying that I'm unlikely to be towing the Sankey over any particularly challenging terrain, possibly farm tracks or similar...

    LT77 reverse detent issues

    Over the weekend my 110 passed it's MOT and then promptly got gearbox issues. Basically there's no difference in resistance between moving the lever left for the 1-2 plane, and then further to the left for the reverse plane. Gaiter off, the big springs external to the lever assembly looked...

    Won't start...leak off pipe split...

    My 110 (200Tdi) has been sat around for a good couple of weeks. Tonight I wanted to get it in my garage to sort a few issues as I have an MOT on Saturday. One of the main issues was to replace the diesel leak off/return pipe that goes between the injector pump and no.1 injector. Unfortunately...

    Couple of Disco 200Tdi in Defender parts questions...

    My 1986 110 has a Disco 200Tdi in it. I need to buy a couple of parts but just have a few questions... The fuel return pipe is leaking...there's a split on the pipe that goes from the pump to the no.1 cylinder, right up where it joins the banjo. It's hard plastic, and I've heard replacements...

    Starter motor...nooo...today of all days!

    Help! 110 with a Disco 200Tdi in it. For the last week, the engine has been cranking over fine, however there's been a clicking from the starter motor as the thing has been cranking. Today...nothing...just a dull "click" from behind the dash I think. What is this likely to be and what's the...

    Folding windscreen supports on a S2

    One for the rivet counters! I know that the S1 sometimes had windscreen supports...simple little folded metal bracket type things that were attached to the bonnet and usually had a bit of webbing on top, that supported the weight of the windscreen when it was folded down. Can anyone tell me if...

    Drone at 60mph...any ideas please?

    Hi all... Need a bit of advice on the other half's Freelander please. It's a 2003 TD4 HSE 5 door auto, 117k on the clock and generally in pretty good order. It gets used mainly for very short trips at low speeds, but she's noticed something on a long run at the weekend. At 60mph a low...

    Cheap Chinese LED driving lights...recommendations?

    I'm after a set of cheap LED driving lights to go on my front A-bar. Now I know it's possible to spend a fortune on bulletproof, lifetime guarantee, Paris-Dakar spec lights with the waterproof capability of a Rolex Submariner, however I'm just after something cheap and cheerful, for very...

    Very poorly 200Tdi...help!

    My Landy has been faultless recently, however suddenly today I have big problems. It's a 1986 110 that's been converted to a Disco 200Tdi. Conversion has been done "properly" with full Steve Parker bits on the intake and exhaust side. Always pulled like a train, if a little smoky under load...

    Winch questions for a newbie

    I'm looking for a 12v winch to sit in the big void of my Devon 4x4 winch bumper. Now, I'll be honest, I'm not a hardcore off roader, (my truck is too nice for that!) but I'd like the ability to do a bit of laning solo and have the ability to self recover before needing to "phone a friend"...

    Wanted...electric front recovery winch

    Looking for a cheap-ish second hand 12v winch suitable for a 110. Not too worried about cosmetic condition or condition of the rope/wire, however it needs to be complete, work properly, and ideally be a recognised brand that I can get spares for if needed, and be near to Rugby or Portsmouth for...

    Not exactly Land Rover, but specific type of LR style drop fastener needed...

    I was out for a run the other night and ran past this in somebody's scrap metal pile outside their house. I offered to give it a better home than being weighed in for scrap, and was told to help myself. Plan is to be able to tow my little lad around behind the garden tractor. Anyway, a bit...

    Head lining fixings part numbers...

    I'm looking for the part number for the fixing button thingies for attaching the head lining panels to a 1986 110SW. Ideally, I want these in dark grey or black. Thanks in advance
