when I get a chance over the next couple of weeks I'll get it off and check all aspects. Thanks for the tips guys. :tea:

Are you sure about that? It seems pretty serious to me.

Mr JC - will take another look at packing it out when I fit the A bar. Not sure whether I will fit spot lights. If packing it out isn't enough I'll jack it up and bend it! Love it lol.

You gotta love the land rover world!! Ha, that sounds like a plan!!!

I'll be taking my front bumper off soon to fit my A bar, and when I put it back, I want it to be straight!! I tried sorting this once before by removing it and wedging something in one end before refitting the bolts. A shortcut, but it worked a bit. Any tips on how to do it properly?

Thanks, will take a look when I'm back home tomorrow. Adam

Sorry of course. It's a Defender 300tdi.

So the fuel tank has been replaced and all seemed well. Well, all was well, it was great. But now we have a fuel leak from the front, it's literally pouring out when the engine is running. I assume a split hose? Before I get covered in fuel trying to work out what's gone wrong, are there any...

Evening gents... It was the tyres! Clearly not meant for speed on a 110. I now have a set of All Terrain BFG and its made for a much nicer ride. So if anyone's after a set of 5 (1 brand new) Maxxis Mudders on black steel rims, please let me know. Collection from East Sussex/Kent borders...

It doesn't, that's the problem I have. Right, I'll get shot of it and go for a bottle jack.

Sorry, that's my bad, I didn't check the link. It was supposed to be a pic of the one I have, but I'm doing all this (badly) from my phone. The jack I have is black, about 3 ft in length, and not bottle like at all. It comes in a black vinyl sleeve, and comes with a separate base part. I'm...

Perhaps I have bought the wrong piece of kit then. I bought a land rover, it didnt come with a jack, so I bought a jack. I bought what I understood to be the jack that comes with a LR as standard, and assumed it would be sufficient for usual jack tasks, such as swapping a wheel over. If only...

Ha ha, brilliant. Of course I have no idea! I'd have just tried to work it out and see how it goes but now you've got me worried! Also I just did a search for what you said and they seem to be yellow? I emailed someone about one of those previously and they told me they were meant for a...

I was well pleased when I managed to get an oldish but unused original high lift jack for £25 delivered, but how on earth does this thing work?? Dealing with the front looks pretty straightforward, but it looks like I either have the wrong jack or need an extension or adapter to lift the rear...

Not fitted the new shocks yet, but the tyre pressures were certainly down. One rear was at 36 and the other 23. Having sorted that the ride has improved, but its still a bit hairy on the motorway. A quick easy fix will be to change the tyres and get rid of the Maaxis', so will try this before I...

Brilliant, have just ordered from ICS Land Rover Spares. Thanks.

Ok, so it looks like I am checking the tyre pressures, and also replacing the rear shocks as the ones I supplied weren't right for the hi cap, yet he still fitted them! Apparently the hi cap tak different rear shocks, is that right? Would anyone happen to have the part numbers for them as I...

Also noticed using it today, the rear tub (high cap don't forget) seems quite "not attached properly". I'm new to all this and hadnt used the truck much before it went in for repairs, but I don't remember it feeling like that. I mean when you go over a speed bump its ok up front, but you really...

Will check them tomorrow, thanks.
