I have some patrs I want to gat rid of. The Defender is now gone, so these parts now need new homes. I'm open to offers on any of the below. I have priced these items low because I just want shot of them, they are taking up space and need to go asap. A pair of Defender front doors £30, the...

My car has a 2" lift. This makes the towbar too high for my lower trailers and caravan. Arse end dragging on the floor sort of thing. The towbar is one of those removable (massive banana shaped) sort with a lock on the side (no key as per.. How the fk do they work anyway?). Has anyone done a...

I'm trying to remember the name/make of a 1980s 4x4 that looks like a Defender, but with a sloping bonnet. I thought it was DMM, but google's comming up blank. Anyone any ideas?

Does the P38 have a low ratio box?

I have a need to convert my 1993 200Tdi to and Auto box. What do I need to do, what is the likely cost? Does the auto box from a 300 Tdi or even a TD5 fit the 200Tdi (are they the same box)? Val.

Exhaust has fallen apart. Whilst doing a bodge fix till I get the new sections, I noticed that the hanger bracket that fits to the gearbox/transfer box mounting point is partly missing, so the rubber dougnut doesn't actually reach it. It looks like the fitter of the exhaust didn't bother using...

I've been thinking lately about engines. I've heard of van motors being fitted by owners, but I was wondering if anyone has swapped the oe motor for one from a small truck? Something of the nature of the Iveco/Ford, Renault or Mercedes 7.5 tone motor? A 4ltr 4 cylinder Hi torque seems like it...

I have LED side, rear and indicators on my 93 200Tdi. I didn't fit them, bought the car with them already fitted. My problem is that when indicating right all six (2 front, 2 rear and 2 side) flash together and the dash light is very dim. Occasionaly it works fine, though the next turn it's...

My 1993 200Tdi has a clunk when moving laft or right when used in wet weather. When dry, no clunk. I assume this is coming from the steering somewhere. But on inspection can't find anything. I wonder if it's the pannard rod all solid and the bushes look ok. or the steering damper OME 3 yrs old...

Thinking of replacing my heater matrix 1993 200Tdi. The current heater is very poor. Even on hot days you bearly notice it. As I understand it, these heaters ain't that bad. So considering its age I guess it need replacing (either that or I need to fit a deisel heater). I have noticed that...

Does anyone know if a 2kw deisel cab/night heater fits behind the seats, ie between the seats and the mid bulk head in a land rover defender 90? And if there is enough space above the transfer box for the inlets and outlets? I'm looking for a good place to fit an extra heater on my 1993 200Tdi...

Two years ago my car was rechassid along with new springs. These springs are correct for the load rating for a 90 2400Kg Utility. I now want to change the springs and probably the shocks for a softer ride. Do The CSW cars have softer springs than the Utility? I'm thinking spring set for CSW 90...

I'm thinking of fitting an extra little window to get over a blind spot issue on my 200 Tdi 90. There is a certain junction I pass through which is at just such an angle that the wide panel just behind the passreger door completely obscures my sight of on comming vehicles. Yes, I know I can...

A search brings up an error msg and the Haynes manual doesn't seem to mention it. How do I remove the intireor rear view mirror? I guess I just grab it and give it a firm tug. As there doesn't seem to be any other way. However I don't want to break anything. Ta Val.

Rear side windows / panels. Are these the same on the 90 and 110? ie take one off a 90 and fit it to a 110 with no probs??? Are they one and the same? Val.

I fitted new doors and bottom seals. Now the doors don't shut without a realy hard slam. The car is a 93 200Tdi. The new (brand new) doors are Puma type. Moving the catch isn't enough to sort it, so I'm going to fit shims to the hinges on the bulkhead. Is this something that is done on the TD5...
