Can anyone recommend where to get the front parts of a hood frame? I need everything forward of the front hoop - the sharks tooth rail, the bits over the doors and the bits behind the doors. I've looked at Exmoor trim but it's coming to £££ and I'd like to save a bit of money. It's to go with...

Hi all, As the title says, how easy (and expensive) would it be to take the auto box out of a V8 disco 1 and replace it with a manual one from say a 300tdi? Is it possible? Would I need an adaptor plate? Are the mountings the same? What about the transfer box? I know the pedal arrangement...

Hi guys, Stupid question I'm afraid. I'm trying to fix the lights on a disco. How does the dipswitch stalk work? Is it pull back and release for main beam and then repeat for dip? If that's right, is it the switch that does it or is it in the electronics somewhere. Currently it just...

Hi all, I've just had to have the fuel tank etc out as I needed to repair the rear crossmember. (Replaced with box section). Do I need to replace the anti roll bar for the MOT? Cheers, Jack

Right, I've bought a Disco 1 and I can't open the drivers door. I could yesterday and now I can't. The key locks and unlocks the central locking on all the other doors. (It's a 5 door). I can't tell what's going on with the driver's door as the little button at the back of the door that shows if...

Hi all, I have a standard 2.25 diesel. It has been standing for around 8 years and I thought I'd try getting it going again as the chassis and bulkhead are ok. I am having trouble with the injector pump - there is no fuel getting through to the injectors. I have bled (and bled and...

Hi there, I've just pulled the starter out of my 1972 diesel SIII because although the starter engages with the engine and spins, it doesn't turn the engine. I have found that on the front of the diesel starter is a type on one-way clutch which is knackered. Looking at the spares places...
