Here is a LHD 80" Chassis for sale. It does have some rust holes (dumb iron as per normal) but could be a great find for anyone with a project. Rear cross member is not present. Steering relay is in. Current Location is Innsbruck Austria and can help with Local delivery if needed. Very very...

Hi All, Does anyone recognise this chasiss which I am helping a freind get rid of. He thought it was a series 1 maybe 107 (need to measure) but the Bulkhead outriggers look wrong to me. There is the Holes/Guides on the drivers side for the Clutch and Brake shafts but not one for the Master...

Hi All, Nearing the end of my 2a Part restore (mainly engine, gearbox, transfer and overdrive rebuilds plus chassis work) and dropped the engine into the already fitted gearbox (needed to be done first as moved Landy and needed handbrake). Engine mated ok although took a bit of effort and today...

Hi All, Currently rebuilding my 2a and the engine after a 40thou rebore. All going well and have put the cam in ok. Setting up the valve timing as per book (both green and haynes) lined up the cam sprocket with the P on key and the other P to the bolt hole all ok. AndI have the crank at TDC...

Hi All, Finally getting my 2a back together after a Gearbox, Transfer and Engine Rebuild (ongoing) and was finishing off the rebuild of the Overdrive. Had a look at the mainshaft endfloat and it seemed too much for me even though no figures are published (or not found) but I thought 0.2-0.3mm...

Hi All, Recently taken the head of my 300tdi as was blowing out the rear head gasket, but that is another story. Whilst head was off decided to have a look at the injectors as always quite smoking at start and power low until warmed up etc etc. but otherwise running great. Whilst I am pretty...

Hi All, Rebuilding a 1996 300tdi transfer box and was going ok. Rebuild kit bought from Ashcrofts. Issue is that I pressed on the rear diff carrier bearing (JLM104948) (after heating in oven for 10 mins) and it went on fine (using old inner race to press). Flipped the diff assemble over to...

Hi Guys/Gals I know there are many posts on the Salisbury diff but... Have a whiny rumbling from the rear and by jacking up and running with one wheel in the air managed to rule out wheel bearings so probably diff bearings. Never done a salisbury before (will have a go without spreader) but I...

Hi Guys, Quick question. Have a leaking (oil) lift pump so decided to swap out the one on (looks like cheap pattern part) with a spare Delphi. Took the old one out and noticed that the the arm on the new delphi is offset. Has this been bent in transit or is it an improved design. Doesn't look...

Hi Everyone, Looking to re-chassis my 2a 88, Due to availability and future proofing may want to use a galvanised S3 chassis. I understand that the front brake pipe mounts are different, it appears that the upper handbrake mounts are similar on the 2a to 3 (mine is a late 2a) Question is - are...

Hi Everyone. We have just got back from out Family Landy trip to Portugal (Sagres) via Pyrenees (off road), Marbella, Gibraltar and Portugal (Sagres the most westerly point in Europe) - oh and back again All went well and the prep that was done paid off with no major issues (see other thread if...

Just a quick video on the Preparations we have done to our 300 tdi (Gertie) for a trip to the South of Spain (Marbella) from Austria. Lots of work done and lots of mods it may help others with a few ideas. Items done for the Trip. Sorry about bad sound at start - just a bit of fun. Maintenance...

Having a bad run, Been preparing a 110 for a Pyrenean trip in a couple of weeks and done tons of maintenance. Will post the mods and improvements but have replaced all hoses as the old 1996 ones were looking rough, choose Bearmach - got back on Sunday from a 500 mile trip and the new bleed valve...

Just took the engine out of a 1996 300 Tdi 110 to change the clutch, noticed from inside the bell housing a leak around the mainshaft - feeling all pleased with myself for having ordered a front cover seal, took out the 6 cover bolts and as I removed the cover the lay shaft bearing fell out (of...

Hi All, Trying to swap the front suspension and was assembling the shocks and bushes on the bench (luckily). Using Monroe D6628 (i think M6628 is the same) using standard LR bushing and washers and there is no room for the nut - what is wrong or am I missing something? Should there be thinner...

Hi All, Have a rattling noise in neutral on tick over with the clutch out which disappears when the clutch is depressed. So I am thinking it is either a clutch spring or input shaft bearing? If it is the input bearing can you change that during an engine out clutch change (which I have coming...

Hi All, Sorry if this has been already addressed on a thread but could not find it. Have a noise when the Engine is under pressure ie when turbo is fully deployed (uphill/accelerating hard on motorway). It sounds like a roar, maybe a leak or is it when the waste gate operates? Notes - Only...

Hi Everyone. Have been looking to upgrade the second row seats on a standard 300tdi 110 SW. I came across a set of 60/40 puma seats (above) from a 2015 130 that are new. I know the complications about puma seats in 300tdi (thinking new cross members, supports and wheel arch mods, but I assumed...

Hi Everyone, Getting round the newly acquired 110 300tdi (June) and I am trying to work out what to do with the front bumper/dumb irons. It must have been fitted with a winch/winch bumper and whoever took it off (bless them) left the dumb irons open - pic explains So what to do, I thought...

HI All, A bit of fun. I have just bought a new set of 'Wolf' wheels for my Conniston Green 110 300tdi S/W. They come black primed but can't decided the colour to paint them. The debate is between light or dark Grey, White - (to match roof if we paint that) or Black - any other sensible options...
