I'm now at the point where I need a radiator, engine runs after replacement ignition amp fitted, brakes all plumbed up and bled, gearbox tested with a jury rig of assorted plastic pipes and a garden hose for cooling! The rad which came out has a straight bottom hose connection facing towards the...

Been spending the last few days dodging showers to get my brakes plumbed in and bled, all new brake pipes and flexibles fitted to overhauled calipers, rear brakes bled fine, when I got to the front brakes couldn't get anything from the lower pistons of the nearside caliper, upper pistons bled OK...

86/87 Range Rover brakes, I need to replace the connector between the 3 pin RIST connector and the plug on the prake pads as mine have fallen to bits, the RIST plug isn't a problem but the connector to the brake pads seems a bit special otherwise I'd just make them up myself, any suggestions...

On the drivers side of the plenum there are 3 vacuum connections, one for the brake servo and one to the extra air valve but whats the one in the middle for? 1986 RR Vogue EFi, I've replaced all the other vacuum hoses but can't find what this one is for. Also the stub on top of the throttle...

Hi, I'm cracking on with a long term project Series 2A/RR hybrid, donor RR was a D reg Vogue EFI problem I'm up against is the wiring diagram in the Haynes book I have doesn't fully match the loom I have and a NA '87 diagram I found on the interweb is partially correct but again not the same...

Hi all, started building this about 16 years ago but other stuff took priority and it sat in the corner waiting for its time to come, enter Covid and a decision to get cracking! I'd owned the 2A since 1988 and also had a Range Rover with terminal chassis rot so thought OK get a new chassis and...
