Hello, has anyone successfully found the above? I cut out some x-member rust as inspection holes and the chassis is solid with the dinitrol having done it's job perfectly, just not good enough to protect a x-member in the exposed to wheelspray position. I really do just need and want the...

As the per the title, who has recent experience of a new number plate light - managed to break mine off being careless with a set of ladders in the garage! Quite fancy this one...

I have been researching this all morning and I am fairly sure this is the case for me, but can someone confirm or add their thoughts. I have it as master (550732) is 3/8 24 UNF and slave (591231) is 7/16 20 UNF I am going to do away with the rigid line, flexi and jump pipe and just have a SS...

Brand New LT230 transfer box - latest type so Disco/Puma gearing but can obviously go into earlier Defender giving higher gearing. I really need about £1k for it - located in West of Scotland but could courier anywhere. I may not reply that soon if you message about it but will do my best.

This is probably more aimed at those of you that don't use your Landy frequently or take it off the road for long periods, how long does your battery last? I realise that a Defender battery with potentially nothing or only a clock draining the battery in theory should last longer than a more...

I think I have painted my 90's rear hinges around 3-4 times in the past 15 years. The last time, I thought, was to be the last time for a long time, they were stripped to bare metal, chemically dipped and cleaned and painted with the utmost care. Well, it lasted around... a year I think. So I...

I went out to the garage to test fit my rear door about 30 minutes ago, top hinge and bottom hinge fine, middle hinge not looking good. I bought the door last summer, you know how Land Rover jobs go, knew I would not get it on anytime soon but certainly didn't think it would be over year. At...

Has anyone done this? My battery box has finally given up the ghost, nice big crack right across the back side and now sitting on the chassis rail. I was about to order a new one but I then remembered that I would like to put my diesel heater in there too, I tried it earlier this year but...

Does anyone have working spare I could have? Ironically I gave my spare to someone on this forum about 5-6 years ago and I remember him saying he didn't use it in the end, if you are reading this and you still have it in good condition could I get it back or could someone else help me out with one?

Right, I have been building a new garage over the summer, it is largely finished now, but I have yet to decide on what to do with the floor. Now for my reasons against not painting it: At my business premises I have an area I sort of incorporated a garage into and installed a 2post - this floor...

Hi guys, I took my washer bottle out last week to clean the algae out from inside it and while it was out had a play around with some air filter box ideas. I had a Disco airbox lying about so I tried that and with some fettling it would fit. I have also seen an image on Google of someone who has...

Some of you may remember CharlesY on here, he parked his Discovery in a corner of the yard about 4 years ago and hasn't had it on the road since, the odd trip around a field (usually pulled by a tractor or my 90 to start it) and up and down the private road has been it's lot; 20 miles in 4 years...

I borrowed a Transit at the weekend to go an Ikea run, 2004 plate, the clutch bite point is almost on the floor and it can be tough to get it into 1st gear. If this was a LR I would be saying hydraulic issue and go from there but I know nothing about these so don't even know if they have a...

Hi guys, decided to do a Dinitrol top up and repaint the chassis taking care of any surface corrosion before it causes any harm and noted the exhaust centre pipe was a bit shot so opted to buy replacement while it was off to get good chassis access and to save it getting plastered in chassis...

Hi guys, the VIN plate on top of the brake box has split right down the middle between the two rivets, would LR replace this for me do you think or should I just evo-stick it down.

As per my other thread of last night I have been changing the timing belt... hahaha. I am really only in there as my crank oil seal was leaking. So got it all stripped last night after making a homemade crank timing gear puller. Cleaned the timing chest all up, great I thought, rebuild it...

Stripped the timing assembly down this evening and will rebuild tomorrow. In the past Sort of pre-kits I have just bought belts and what not and fitted them, this time I bought a convenient kit. I happened to notice a set of instructions with the kit which I read over, a couple of things came...

I bought a timing belt kit yesterday for the 90 and it got me thinking. They offer the early & late kits + the fits all kit. So basically there is the tensioner with the lip and without, when the earlier type has a lip the crank didn't and vice-versa, then the idler on the later type...

...unless it's a OEM or Genuine bagged/boxed by Britpart. Thought I would just refresh this message and keep a fresh result in Google searches for anyone thinking about them!

I want to fit standard duty springs to my 90, I have some HD springs on mine. Someone on here made the comment that someone might want HD springs and have a set of good standard duty springs (couple of years old with an easy life on them) on their vehicle just now. A swap makes sense. If anyone...
