Well ... following a new job and getting a company car, the Landy had to go :-( Sure I will have another one day, but until then, room in the garage has to be made to welcome a new (2 wheeled) addition! So here is the list so far: Black fume curtain (perfect but a bit dusty from storage) - £50...

Having no luck swapping my tilt, so decided to go truck cab - Anyone out there within a reasonable distance of Newcastle upon Tyne have anythin available? Cheers Ben

Hi All, Looking ideally to swap a sand coloured 90 hood (Bearmcah brand, new old stock to fit the tdi headrail) with side windows for a hood without side windows. Not too fussed whether it be sand, black or khaki, but no blue please. For sale also, please make an offer. Cheers Ben

About to split the boxes to replace a leaky shaft seal, cant find any info on whether there is a gasket between the transfer and gear boxes - any one confirm one way or the other? Really want to get it done in a 1er and not have to wait for parts to be delivered... Thanks Ben

Looking at fitting a set of genuine TD5 door hinges to the fender, but have a query. Looking at my auld mans TD5, compare to my Ex-Mil, I am unsure if the TD5 hinges will clear the door cappings on the 2 part doors. Any advise before I put me hands in me pocket? Cheers Ben

Having tried everything I could think of to get rid of the clunk on take up, I succumb to pulling the tranny box inspection covers off! The tranny box gears look fine, except the input cog, which along side the output shaft are well and truly shagged! :mad: Ordered up some new parts to drop a...

Hi, Can anyone recommend a battery for a 2.5n/a 90? I have tried a td5 battery in today and it sits too high to fit the battery box cover back on. Looking for something with a bit more umph than the 70mah I have atm. Cheers Ben

Need a new 'box - mine is on its last legs :mad: As close to Newcastle upon Tyne as possible, or I am happy to arrange a courier to collect. Need something in good order as money is a tad on the light side. Thanks Ben

Hi. Having pressed the landy into daily use after selling the slitty, I am doing a fine tooth comb jobber on it in prep for the coming summer. I am new to this level of agricultural engineering, but happy to get mitts dirty and have a bash at fixing stuff. I have kinda sorted some leaks etc...

Hi, Just changed the rope on my canvas tilt over to bungee but hit a stumpling block. When it is tied off, the knots tighten to the point they cant be undone easily. Will be impossible if they get wet. How have people who have done this mod secured the bungee? I was thinking of toggles at each...

Hi, Looking for a tilt for a 90, its a 92 model so will have to be one with the tubular windsceen retainer strip thingy, not the later flat type. Will consider any colour but only interested in those without rear side windows. Im located in Newcastle upon Tyne area but im happy to pay postage...

Hi My tool collection is growing weekly, but exclusively in metric sizes. Will there be a need for a set of imperial/AF sockets to work on a 1992 90? Ta Ben

Hi All, Tried to fit a new tailpipe to the exhaust this morning due to the old one wearing through as it was hard up against the chassis. I can or the life of me work out the arrangement of the bushes, brackets and clamps for the rear cross member clamp/hanger. I think this may be a botch up...

Massive thanks to Herb for doing his magic on my engine - I can now hit 70 easily! Makes the 2.5na a keeper for sure! Made me a very happy new Landy custodian! Have to say though - diesel pump adjustment just looks like black magic to me ;-) Ben

Hi, I have 7 wheels with tyres that are free to anyone wishing to collect. In the mix are: 4 x Rostyle rims with just legal bridgestone tyres (located in South Shields all 4 of these will have to go together) 2 x Normal rims caked in MOD paint. 2 x useable Michelin tyres (1x 750, 1x metric...

Hi, Looking to get a hold of a truck cab spare wheel mount (type that fits to centre bulkhead) to get the spare off the bonnet of my EX-Mod defender - hopefully someone has an unloved one lurking in their garage :-) Thanks Ben

Hi All, I will be buying a defender soon, so looking for potential insurance companies etc. Could anyone be kind enough to suggest if these would be 'modifications' as such, and therefore need to be declared to the insurers? Bulkhead removal bar Mudd rails or the Exmoor equivalent Smaller...

Hi, Well, A year on and I STILL havent got myself a landrover, very close though, starting to go through quotes to see the damage. I am looking at a 110 hard top, but I cant find any insurers that will insure it (except van insurers) and then its super money (£1500!!!!!) a station wagon comes...

Firstly, hello to every one from the rather snowy and damn awful NE!!! ok, I need a little bit of help here. I have a budget of 7-8K for a landie 90, and need to know what my best bet is. I will be using the truck as a daily driver as well as some greenlaning (and possible a bit of offroading...
