    Freelander 1 Commercial Wanted

    Freelander 1 Commercial Diesel (Preferably Auto but beggers and choosers and all that). Limited budget but hoping there is something out there. Just sold my discovery as Mrs says no time for it as baby due any day....but I've convinced her a freelander commercial would be good for work.

    Disco 1 Front prop bearing.

    Please excuse my lack of technical knowledge. Is there a bearing on the front of the transfer box to the prop? A friends 300tdi is making a metal on metal sound and previous owner has covered this area in silicone?

    Holy Grail

    I am aware of the normal way of finding lanes (OS Map, GLASS, trailwise, wetroads etc) but has anyone ever done a complete list of legal lanes for the UK? This ideally would be categorised into county's for ease of use. I am aware the amount of work this would take and time for research etc I'm...

    Disco 1 Sand Ladders

    Sand Ladders / Waffle Boards. Where do people mount these when not in use? I want them to be easily reachable but out of the way. I don't have a roof rack and some of my local lanes are very low so that's not an option. Thanks

    Wanted Discovery 300tdi Gearbox. Dorset.

    R380 (I think) gearbox wanted. Killed mine on Sunday and SWMBO (who is heavily pregnant) is going mad that my landy is taking up 2 spaces on the drive due to it not driving and too heavy to manoeuvre by hand on a slope. Cheap as possible (impending newborn means funds are low). Thanks

    What gave you the bug?

    Apologies if this has been asked before: What gave you the love of the green oval? With me I am now on my sixth discovery. I've had TD5's and 200tdi's but found the 300tdi to be the best. I started using a standard Discovery for a bit of laning as well as using it as my daily driver and...

    Do I need dislocation cones?

    After reading a thread on here showing the issues of when a spring dislocates it's got me thinking... My truck was standard apart from a 2 inch lift when I got it. Now along with other bolt ons and bigger tyres I'm wondering how likely it is for a spring to drop? It's a 300tdi Commercial...

    Verwood/Cripplestyle Think I've found a lane?

    Cripplestyle (Dorset/Hampshire border 'ish) or however it's spelt... Very end of the road appears to go into a lane? Was alone so not going to risk it and can't find my OS map. Anyone know of it?

    Tyres on arches.

    After reading many times on this forum and online that 265/75/16 tyres fit with a 2 inch lift, why are mine catching so bad? I can live without full lock but just did a short lane on way home from work and tyres hit the arches on every serious bump. Tyres are Insa turbo on standard steel wheels...

    Its only a bloody tyre question.

    Discovery 300tdi Commercial. 2 inch lift springs and shocks. 265/75/16 Insa Turbos fitted today on standard discovery steels. Catch like mad anywhere near lock but can't seem so see where? Anyone know where it is likely to be? Will fitting spacers fix this? Thank You in advance for any advice.

    Anyone out this Sunday (3/7) in Dorset?

    Is anyone laning in Dorset this weekend and mind if I tag along? Ox Drove or similar? Fancy going out but obviously not just me in one vehicle as we all know what happens... Otherwise guess I will be heading to Muddy Bottom.

    I'm back. And already it's broken.

    After 18 months of being landyless yesterday I purchased a 300tdi commercial. Few off road bits already on it and I have my shed full of bolt on toys that will be on it before test run this weekend. When I got home today I noticed a puddle of oily substance coming from the NSR, I have been...

    200tdi Fans aren't blowing? At all. Worked perfectly yesterday and today nothing on any setting. Checked fuses under steering column and all ok. Any ideas? Don't want kids getting ill from cold. Thanks

    Well that's not a good sign....

    Volunteered to lock up at work tonight so I could make good use of the Jet Wash and give Dora a bath. As I'm sick of driving around with half of Wales still attached to the bodywork. Got in to drive home and it stinks of damp? Day off on Monday so time to do some investigating.
