    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Didn’t find a specific reference to a Bombay Outhouse… but from the top internet offerings, I’m sure I wouldn’t want to spend a weekend in one ! Have a great weekend

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    That’s a great response ! Brought a chuckle during the read. I’ll stick to the Land Rover parts and at least I’ve done my best to fit parts that are of some quality… for now, I’m going to try to find if there is a difference from a regular outhouse and a Bombay outhouse ! Thank you and kind...

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Thank you Bobsticle.. when you say “branded” do you mean actual branded Land Rover part ? For example a Land Rover wheel cylinder is $115 US vs $55 for a TRW, Rover brake adjuster kit (4 wheels) $249 vs $28 for an unknown brand. If the actual Rover part is higher quality I have no problem...

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Thank you to all who have provided suggestions ! Weather has cooled and both front drums were removed with surprising ease, light tapping with a small sledge and a bunch of wiggling slowly walked the drums off with no damage to any of the components. I was expecting to find a rusted mess hidden...

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Bobsticle, would the frozen slave exhibit the extremely stiff brake pedal ? I read a failed servo could possibly show as a hard pedal also. Maybe a combination of both ? Thank you for your suggestions, weather is supposed to break tomorrow evening, I’m holding off until then. I’ll update as I go

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Mark, I noticed on some videos I found, that the adjuster appears to be in a cam shape, so as you mention, going beyond the smallest portion of the cam, would actually start to expand the shoes outwards again, tightening the brakes. I am prepared for damaged parts during the disassembly and will...

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Mark, there is only a single adjuster on these brakes, I turned the adjusters both ways with the wheels off the ground, I didn’t notice any difference. Both front wheels are very tight, I mentioned “frozen” which is a bit extreme, I can move the wheels by hand, but only an inch at a time, and...

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Thank you, my project for tomorrow morning, should I hammer the face to try to “pop” it off, or should I be hitting an outside edge trying to force it off outward ?

    Series III 88 Lightweight Frozen Brakes

    Hoping for some advice on a new to me LHD Series III 88 Diesel Lightweight. Front brakes are very tight, attempted to back them off using the adjusting nut located on the backing plate, to no avail. Also loosened the bleeder and brake line to the brake cylinder to see if system was pressurized...

    Fuel filter location LHD Series III 88 Lightweight Diesel

    I believe the location of my fuel filter is correct. I located a posting for a 1982 Danish Military, Series III 88, Diesel Lightweight, similar to my truck for sale, on-line. The listing included many photographs, including the engine bay. The filter was mounted precisely where mine is. Not very...

    Fuel filter location LHD Series III 88 Lightweight Diesel

    New to Land Rovers, so learning as I go. Fuel Filter is mounted on the inside portion of the right hand wing, within the engine compartment, adjacent to the generator 24v. Is this the original location ? Somewhat difficult to service. Seems like mounting it to the firewall/bulkhead would have...
