Having spent countless hours reading everyone else's fantastic rebuild threads, I thought it was time to stop being a silent watcher and start my own! Now I have neither the time nor skills to do a strip down rebuild like Aaronmorris and others, so this is going to be more a record of steady...

So I started one of those 5 minute jobs yesterday that seems to be rapidly snowballing into something else, and I just want to check with those wiser than me that I am on the correct course. I needed to renew the front brake discs on my 90, so started by removing the calipers, and then the...

Evening folks, I've just taken my second plunge into the murky world of landy owning by getting hold of an ex-army 2.5NA 1986 defender 90 FFR. Whilst I'm waiting for Swansea to register and provide a nice new registration number I thought this is an ideal time to really inspect the old girl...

Hi all, I decided to brave the cold and fit my newly aquired bull bar today and opened a can of worms in the process. To start with, I removed the apron and end caps from the bumper, to allow me to mount the bar. This is what I found under the plastics... Obviously some panels are...

The rear silencer fell off my D1 V8 recently, which made me think it was about time i gave the exhaust some attention. £300 lighter, I had a replacement after market full system on it's way. When i collected it from the garage that supplies the parts and also fits them, I was warned about...

I've noticed that when accelerating, i get a chattering noise coming from the drivers footwell. Having investigated, i understand that the injector and fuel pump relays are located there. Is this noise normal, or does it mean a faulty relay?! Thanks guys... im learning slowly...

So today i started to give the truck a service. When changing the air filter, i was a bit concerned that the previous owner had bent the filter and stuffed it into the box in such a way that it was effectively free flowing without any filtering. I changed the plugs as well, again previous...

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but I couldn't find anything on search. Having justified buying a v8 by getting one with LPG, im looking at ways of protecting my under sill tanks to allow some off road fun! It looks like diff armour will help with leading and trailing edges with a...

I have just picked up a 1996 Discovery, and immediately set to work on all the niggles to make it a proud specimen once again. The first issue is something that appears to be fairly common - passenger front door won't open unless you hold the lock knob up whilst pulling the handle. Having...
