How does the front grill panel attach to the wings on a one ten please? Mine has a supporting bar which is secured at the bottom on each side with an m8 to the chassis. I've not had any issues with this. Then it has 3 m8 bolts per side. 2 at the top and 1 at the bottom. It feels like they...

Search isn't working, so I'll ask and make people angry! How hard is it to remove the roof and sides on a 110 hardtop? Can you remove them both together as one piece? How many bolts? How does it seal to the body? How heavy is it? How many people do you need to lift it off? My wife just...

Is a smear of hylomar blue ok as a sealant on the threads or threadlock please? Or something else...

This won't come off. I can get it to the end of the prop shaft bolts but one shoe appears to be sticking and has jammed at an angle. Prior to attempting removal I backed off the adjuster and the drum rotates freely. Even when I return the drum to its fully seated position, it's now locked solid.

Is this a steel sleeve insert in my transfer box?

Hi all. My brother is over on holiday from Australia between the above dates. He would love to go out on some green lanes whilst he's here. I've went off road with him in Australia in his Land Cruiser years ago which is what got me started in Landys, so it would be nice to return the favour...

If (like me) you've never heard of one, please google it. I did not want to provide a direct link as I can only find one supplier and I don't want to appear to be plugging them. Has anyone installed one of these and do they work? Seems a bit pricey for a spacer but if it makes an appreciable...

Taken from my calipers thread. Apologies for anyone who has already read it. I've got quite a long pedal at the moment, but the brakes are effective. I think the fronts will get stronger as the pads bed in. I think the long pedal is an adjustment problem with the rear brakes. I've adjusted...

I went to change the brake pads on my 110 and I'm not happy with the pistons. Some have slight end corrosion but appear to work fine, others with a slightly sticky action. Bearmach calipers are about £100 the pair. OEM's are about £240 the pair. I'm assuming I will need to go OEM but thought...

Hi, Experiencing some slight clutch slip in my 110. Always between 2000-2300 revs in 4th gear which is probably at the point of highest boost and most stress/strain. It stabilises after a couple of seconds. When it first started a couple of weeks ago, I found it hard to reproduce. Now I can...

Help me diagnose my clutch problem please. This morning, the gears crunched when I changed into 4th. From that point onwards, I could not change gear without rev matching. I also can't change gear when stationary unless I kill the engine. Pressing the clutch does actually disengage the gears...

My old 110 has no ABS or fancy stuff :) I had to brake very hard today from about 50 MPH. It was wet and at one point I heard the left from wheel skid so I eased off the braking slightly - there was no pull, which is making me think could it be the rear that I heard - surely if one of the...

Had the Landy in for an MOT and it could not be started because my VIN cannot be read from the plate as part of it is snapped off. It's an ex-mod, so it has no chassis number stamped on the actual chassis, just various army numbers. To complicate things further, I've noticed that the number on...

I've been tweaking my injection pump so I would like to install an exhaust gas temp probe. I was planning on drilling and tapping the exhaust manifold in situ. I've found some decent pictures of where peeps have located their probes, but all of them are genuine defender 200 TDI's, The disco...

Now then. Done a few jobs on the Landy recently, and all at the same time, so I'm not sure which is the source of my problem and a little confused. Symptoms Jerky, Juddery, kangarooing a little on set off in 1st high. Does not seem to be an issue at all in 1st low. Sometimes a little...

Any tips on fitting a transfer box please? I've been on with it for a couple of hours but can't get it to mate to to the gearbox. All bolt holes etc are perfectly inline. It feels as if it's sticking on the gearbox output to tbox input. It's about 1.5" away from engaging. This is a...

Now then, it can't just be the one thing, my clutch is still in the queue to be fixed, so whilst I was waiting for parts, I thought it's about time I set the tappets, having never done them since I put the engine in about 2 years ago! So I set about the simple task of removing the rocker cover...

I've been concerned about my clutch for a while. The bite point has felt as though it's been right at the top of the pedal, just before you remove your foot. Today, for the first time I felt a judder as I drove up hill this morning, as if I was slipping the clutch (which I was not) then a few...

I'm thinking about swapping my transfer box this weekend. Do you need to drain the oil from either the transfer box or gearbox before removing the tbox?
