    My Opinion of Paddock Spares

    Hi Well I've ordered lots of parts from them and have had a mixed service from them. Among the various problems I have had is a totally wrong part was sent out. They sent the correct part at no extra cost and told me i could keep the other one as it was not worth sending it back. Thankfully it...

    Parts Bin Clutch upgrade for 200Tdi

    Well I know I'm going to get flamed for this but I have had two clutches in my 200. They were both Britpart affairs. The second one was done free of charge because the new thrust bearing failed after 1000 miles (that is what they told me). When I scraped it and took the engine out the release...

    Brakes and ABS

    Hi I was changing the rear hoses on the back of my discovery today when I hit a problem. I removed one of the hoses and in doing so I noticed as it come out it was taking the threads with it. I don't know if it was due to corrosion or to it being threaded. My Disco is an ABS model hence the...

    Stiff steering after 2" body lift

    Its sorted. I took the steering linkage off and it was still stiff so I hammered the end and it freed off. Must have just been the wheel itself binding against the switch shroud.

    Stiff steering after 2" body lift

    My mate chewed up one of his brand new Cooper st 235/85 tires on his first outing because it fouled the wheel arch at the back and he has a body lift but only did a camel chop because he was told he would get away with it. If you have not fouled the arches you just ain't trying hard enough...

    Stiff steering after 2" body lift

    Obviously I'm a ****wit then. I'll shut off and crawl back under my rock. But it takes one to know one as the cuts on the treads of your tires show that you know very little either. I never used the bolts because that would be stupid! Hence I asked the question.

    Stiff steering after 2" body lift

    My 31" tires which I'm swapping over from my previous vehicle won't fit otherwise. I am also doing a wheel arch chop. The steering rod was totally free to move on the splines so i have not stretched it by 2". It did not cause me issues on the last vehicle. And as far as whether a body lift does...

    Stiff steering after 2" body lift

    Hi As a result of doing a body lift I have a stiff steering. Despite the fact i took the bolts out of the steering. My mate said to put smaller diameter bolts in. But even without any bolts at all its still stiff. It moves on all the splines. Anybody know what it is? Cheers John

    What can i run off Optima yellow top sc34da

    This has 660 CCA and has more power in the first 10 seconds. I can always connect it to the red top but its trashed two of those already and as the main battery that ain't too clever. Its mostly because it has 3amps of draw even when switched off and its been running the spare battery flat and...

    Front swivel issues

    Cheers Dave... I did have noticeable play top and bottom in the wheel on the side that ran dry of lubrication when I checked before I took it apart. OK so now my next question... If I replace the bearings do I just fit them without shims and see if there is any play and add shims until no...
