    V8 into Series 3 - bulkhead Q

    The bulkhead in my 109 is fairly comprehensively shot, and with an eye to the future I was wondering whether it'd be better to fit a 6 cylinder bulkhead if I can find one - I understand that these have a deeper inset to allow for the longer engine which *may* suit a Rangie V8 conversion better...

    S2 front end on an S3 ?

    I've done a bit of googling but can't find anything definitive, so I thought I'd ask here. Would it be legal to fit a Series 2 front rad panel and lights onto an '82 Series III (along with S2 wings)? As far as I can tell the lights needs to be max 400mm max from the outer edge of the...

    Blackberry Z10 phone?

    I don't want to start an Android v iPhone v Blackberry argument, so this is targetted at just those using (or who have used) the Blackberry Z10 ;) I'm thinking of getting one of these - have you come across any serious issues with yours? What is the phone signal retention like - many dropped...

    I know, I'm a heretic for even thinking about it...

    I had a whimsical notion of putting a Series I or II body on my 300Tdi chassis - has anyone here done something similar? If so, can you post some pics? Not sure what a 100" Series would look like... This is what got me thinking - utterly mad but somehow appealing! I think its a 107? I wouldn't...

    P38 door cards into D1 ?

    I was wondering if it is possible to fit P38 door cards into a 300Tdi D1 5 door? I know RRC cards will fit, but they're pretty rare and usually damaged - P38 ones are cheap and plentiful :) Thanks

    My 300Tdi rescue thread

    I thought it was about time that I started to document the work I've been doing on my '98 300Tdi Safari. Nothing as dramatic as some threads on here, but I hope some of it is interesting anyway. The background - I bought this truck from the family of a local club member who had sadly...

    rear lamp alternatives

    My '98 Tdi has already been retro-fitted with the earlier upper rear lamps (with the indicators) but I'm thinking about something different - and I don't particularly like the RDX lamps. What I was wondering is if the D2 rear lamps could be made to fit? I've looked at the D3/4 lamps and they...

    brake vacuum pump

    It looks like the vacuum pump on my 300Tdi has an oil leak around the top cover so I'm going to replace it - I've read about the bodge using silicone sealant to stop the leak, but I reckon if oil is getting past the piston seal then its time to change it... The big question is which brand to...

    V8 block porosity

    I've decided to sell my Volvo and get a Rangie - initially i was thinking along the lines of a P38 4.6HSE, however with so many adverts (and forum posts) relating to overheating problems and porous blocks I'm having second thoughts - so I'm wondering about a late 4.2 LSE. Are these blocks...

    Ey-up

    Just thought I'd say hello :) Had a few Defenders a few years ago, now looking for a Series III - must be mad! Nice busy forum you have here, hope you won't mind me asking stupid questions once I've bought the wee beastie! In South Yorkshire btw. All the best, ArticFox
