Seems earlier this year by a week or so. Decent forecast for anyone traveling afar. Anyone going?

Ok bear with me here - I know it's not a Land Rover! I visited a client on a farm today and down the bottom of the yard was a nice original looking Daihatsu Taft 1980/81 W reg. Looks like it was a retired farm hack but chassis and bulkhead looked a little rusty but solid. This was cab version...

I've not yet given up on my idea of finding a space saver wheel which could be used in place of a standard wheel in an emergency. I currently run Defender wheels with 7.50 / 16 tyres. I know it sounds daft but I'm trying to free up some space in the back (don't want a spare on the bonnet or I...

A few nice Series Land Rovers attended which added to an already brilliant day out yesterday.... Not Land Rover related but worthy of a gander.... :)

Looking to possibly store my Series 3 88" roof by hanging it from the garage rafters. I need to know if they are definitely strong enough? It's a single garage, gable roof attached to the house - house built about 25 years ago if that's any indication of regs at the time. I was thinking of just...

Surely if the vehicle is scrapped the V5 should reflect this? This is a trader too I think... Landrover Series 2 1960 V5 Vin Plate And Number Plates Tax exempt | eBay

I need a bolt to fix a new front pulley to my spare engine I'm assembling. I don't have the starter dog type bolt and they are too expensive / hard to find for the 5mb diesel. I believe it may well be a M20 size bolt that will fit but unsure what length to buy? Can anyone confirm please?

Does anyone know of any Series land rover breakers? Not after anything major, just thermostat housing top but they seem to be rocking horse dump.

As per title, I'm in need of a Series 3 thermostat housing top if anyone has one lurking about. :) Thanks, Phil

I'm struggling to find the part number for the plastic Tee piece where the various servo vacuum pipes meet. I want to replace the pipes and I was going to replace the Tee piece too, as I guess this may be brittle anyway and brake when I pull the old hardened pipes off. Can anyone point me in the...

Can anyone confirm the nut size or alternatively part number for the nut which secures the wiper spindle to the bulkhead (on outside of bulkhead) please?

I've had my Series 3 for over a year now and just noticed something a bit odd. She is already on a galvanised chassis (make unknown) but I notice that on the drivers side front outrigger (one that supports the bulkhead), the support bracket (looks like angle iron) which should go from the...

Went to Bristol today. Loads of roads shut and saw a few Landy's winching & dragging cars and vans from flooded roads. Anyone here involved in the fun?

Might as well replace these whilst replacing the swivels etc as i'll probabkly bust the rubber boots anyway....where does it all stop?! Are the track rod end ball joints the same part as the steering drag arm ball joints? If so I assume that I will need 2 x left hand thread and 2 x right hand...

I've read many of the oil threads previously and decided to put 20w/50 Comma Classic oil in my 2.25 diesel. Now I hadn't thought nuch more adout it since but I went to see my landy man who had a strong opinion that I should remove the 20w/50 and use 15w/40 - reason being that the 20w/50 is...

With better weather now I need to replace the rubber window seals in my hard top - the fixed side windows, the long thin alpine roof side windows and the two either side of the back door. Has anyone done this and can recommend where to buy the seals from? I see you can buy them as a complete...

I've got fed up of fighting with the static belts and bought some new inertia reel ones made by Securon (as sold by Paddocks) They should fit the same floor (bottom edge of seatbox) brackets and I have got the hard top angle brackets for the top triangular bracket. What I am not sure of is how...

A bit forking pricey me thinks! Anyone the proud owner of one of these? Have you insured it? STC62071 GENUINE SOLIHULL OVAL KEY RING. | Land Rover Gifts/Merchandise | shop | www.lrseries.com | L. R. Series :eek::eek:

As the warmer months are approaching i'm starting to think about painting the inside of the rear floor, wheel arches and maybe the hard top side & roof. Just want to make the rear a nicer place to be for the wife (kids sit in the front! lol). Bench seats will cover much of the arches I'm looking...

I don't suppose the original OEM bumper was galvanised was it? Mine looks like a galvanised one that has been painted with some nasty hammerite 'hammered silver' finish. Mioght be the original one, don't know. I will probably rub it back and repaint it a better kind of silver at some point. I...
