I was in a similar situation the other week - trying to insure a 110 with a 200tdi (not standard) and a tipper conversion no company wanted to touch me! Can reccomend A-Plan insurance they were by far and away the cheapest and weren't bothered by "non-standard" modifications

there's plenty of ifor tops for 90s on ebay, not sure if they'd fit on a double cab or if the load area is different?

just seen this on another forum for tree surgeons, anyone local to give the chap a hand? Help - Arbtalk.co.uk | Discussion Forum for Arborists cheers, Joe

thanks Andy!

my plan is to put the ring washer on the wire behind nut and tighten, then fit fusebox cover back - does this qualify as secure and shielded enough?

lovely, cheers! knowing me and electrics, I was afraid of trying it and a big bang, spark and dead landy...

Hi all, I finally got round to buying a radio and speakers for my 110 today, hopefully we're nearly ready to go, just need to earth it somewhere. My idea is to attach the earth to this nut in the fusebox, I reckon this should be connected to bulkhead and should be fine? But not knowing the...

if you get stuck I'm in the forest of dean, heading down to plymouth on 11th feb for a stag weekend and back the next day so could bring them up then? If you can't arrange anything before that drop me a line cheers, Joe

thanks a lot for your help james, I will keep an eye on it and probably get it looked at some time in the new year as power steering is a bit beyond my capabilities!

well I just got me brother to move wheel while I watched, no sign of any leakage so I drove truck down the road and back, nothing leaking when I got out either. power steering has always been very noisy, but my local mechanic reckoned it was nothing to worry about? So it should be OK to keep...

thanks a lot, I will go and try that now

Hi all, I just took me 110 200tdi down the petrol station and back to get some milk (about 4 miles). When I got back red fluid was dripping out from near the front, from a brown reservoir I'm nearly certain is clutch fluid. It looks like the fluid had been leaking either out the top, or around...

the chest itself isn't as light as you might imagine, not sure if these are fireproof or not but they're bloomin heavy even without any drawers in!

Hi all, I have 4 large architects type plan chests to sell, made out of metal and lockable. Would it be worth trying to sell these as tool storage chests for spanners, screwdrivers etc as an alternative to the SnapOn? Does anyone use similar chests for this sort of thing? Or are they no use for...

I could be wrong (it has happened before :D) but doesn't the 3.5t limit mean train weight, vehicle and trailer combined? So if your yacht and trailer weigh 3.5t on their own, add in the weight of the Landy and you, and you will be overloaded legally speaking? of course if you're only going...

I get the impression it depends on the garage! I took my 110 pickup to my usual chap last week for the first MOT since I got it, he phoned me and told me he couldn't do it as it was a class 7. Fair enough, so a quick google and I'm on my way to the nearest class 7 garage, where despite me...

cheers storm, didn't think of that! have tried all possible combinations of wing, air, intake, grill but forgot about breaking vehicles. thanks a lot

Hi all, The plastic grill on the top of the wing by bonnet had a couple of screws loose, and must have been caught by the wind in the right place last night as it's not there any more! I've been looking about on internet, I only want a standard black plastic grill like was there before, but...

thanks a lot will try and work out how to do that! Can I use an existing fuse in the box, or do I need to try and plumb a new one in?

Hi all, Back again with another question! My 110 has had the 200tdi conversion by a previous owner, and there is no fan at all. So far have been alright, but got stuck behind a lorry going up a hill today and the landy was getting a bit hot, so I would like to put in an electric fan. Two...
