So do adwest still do recon steering boxes? Anywhere recommended?

guys, on the pic below i take it that the little recess in the hole isnt a spigot bush? i assume it should be much bigger diameter?

Im doing a build of a 90 with a V8 mated to a R380 gearbox and im unsure which crossmember I need. Anybody got a part number of some pictures?

Currently in the middle of a defender rebuild. I put one of the front stub axles on today, and the hub and wheel etc. Whats really odd is that the wheel wont rotate all the way to lock stops in either direction? :shock: I think I know what the problem is, but ive no idea why? if anybody could...

Trying to weigh up what the gearbox options are for my 90 rebuild. The vehicle body (bulkhead, seatbox, floor etc) is a 94 200Tdi with the LT77 gearbox. Ive got a marsland v8 NAS chassis and a v8 engine to go in and I intend removing the body from my landy in one go and dropping it onto the...

Hey all, Ive got a marsland defender 90 chassis and am having trouble fitting the a-frame. The marsland chassis has the brackets welded on, so you need to fit the bushes on the vehicle. Anybody got any tips on how to get both bushes into the brackets at the same time! I need 8 arms lol.

Suspension advice! Springs are like a dark art with lots of snake oil sales men out there! Im after updating the springs and dampers on my 90 soft top during the build im doing. Currently im running standard springs all round. Standard height and standard poundage. I get great articulation...

So, i recently bought a v8 engine and a chasis to start a ground up rebuild of my 90 (200tdi). The engine is a bran new RPI 4.6 which I got from an auction for what could be a steal (if its not fubar lol) So, had the time today to have a good look at the engine. I wanted to make sure it would...

Ive got a 1994 200 tdi 90 with thick type drive members on the rear. Ive just bought a Ashcroft diff which requires 24 spline half shafts. im assuming mine are 10 spline given the age of vehicle and the fact it has the thick type drive members. So based upon that i need the old style rear...

So im running flatdog standard height, standard weight springs on the 90 and the articulation is pretty good. the downside is that since ive stuck all manner of heavy steel bits on it and the winch its looking a little low, especially at the front end. the vehicle also has koni +2 dampers on it...

Just realised my new rear door doesn't have a hole for the key lock. Can you fit the latch mechanism without the lock bit? Will it fit with the defender latch on the body? It's a 94 200tdi 90 and the door is an eBay special.

Im replacing my rear door (90 200tdi 1994) and im going to replace the rusty orrid hinges at the same time. the door and hinges are all off. im ordering a door tomoz and i already have the rubber and door thresh etc.... all i need is some nice hinges. For the fronts i managed to source some zinc...

Caught the aftermath of this a couple of weeks ago at Weston Coyney. Guy had attempted a short climb, aborted and then turned/rolled onto his roof. The unfortunate bit was that the landie wasnt his. His mate (for obvious reasons) had a complete sense of humour failure. :D Disco didnt actually...

Ive bought a couple of the Numax batts everyone talks about and im setting about planning how i want the system setup. ive put together a wiring diagram so that i can show an auto-electrician and get a quote; but i thought id ask the big brains on here whether what ive put down is any good - or...

Out today laning with mud-warriors up in the peaks, and half way round my battery dies! Just got home, but eventually it wouldnt even run with the existing battery. anyhow, i need a new one. I was planning to do a dual battery install anyhow, and the only thing im not sure of what ppl are...

Hi, Im after an air compressor for my home workshop. I want to run air tools and also want to do a little paint spraying and schultzing. Anyone got a recommendation and the kind of size id need (25, 50, 100 litres?) and the CFM of the pump etc. also what make? is there much difference? Ive...

Hi, I've noticed today that after my last off road day out both my rear springs are dislocated out of their top mount. Is this normal? I thought you only got this when you have lifted suspension. Mine is std ride height. I've got a set of flatdog standard height and standard weight...

ive got this clonking/spring twanging type noise coming from the front drivers side. Its happening on articulation and some times when pulling off/stopping. i thought it was bushes but isnt. ive replaced the springs, shocks and turrets and it still does it! Have a listen to this. 14-18...
