thanks for the reply, will look in to the bearmach springs. Does any body know what the gap should be between the centre of the wheel and the arch on a standard disco 1? Dru

My disco 1 has started to droop at the rear, about 13 months ago i fitted britpart gas shocks and standard hight HD springs to it. Hight from centre of the front wheels to arch is 51cm, NSR is 52 cm OSR is 48 cm Phoned the place where i got the shocks and springs and he recomended fitting britpart +40mm spring to the rear. Would that sort out the sag at the rear and would they fit with my standard shocks thanks DRU

What else can go wrong with this disco. Took it out for a drive for the first time since fitting gearbox and clutch, Its now got what feels like a misfire , it was fine before the layshaft snapped at the end of january. Any ideas where to look now for this as nothing was touched in the engine bay. also having probs with the diflock lever it will lock the dif but wont unlock it? its a 95 3.9 v8 disco any help would be good as iam at the end of my Tether with this disco manythanks dru

good thats what i thought, lol

Hi, do the gearbox breather pipes conect to anything in the engine bay or do they just clip on somewhere? dru

Turned out i had the clutch plate in the wrong way round new clutch i have been supplied is way to small and the supplier is saying its the only one listed for it. Its an LR009366 if anybody knows what it fits Dru

would it need bled as the slave cylinder was just tucked away, as to the clutch plate could be wrong way round, would it damage it if it was?. lol, thats it for another month as my back is playing up again dru

finaly got every thin back together , DAM THING wont engage gears with engine running, push towards 1st gear and it creeps forward. switch engine of or put t/box in neutral it engages all gears. ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGG realy need some help with this now as its due its mot very soon. thanks Dru

yep its an r380, acording to factors valvoline say dextron11, £30 for 3 litres at dealers (ouch) it get to be then. now got to wait on the rain going off as the disco is in a puddle. chears dru

turns out the clutch was out of alignment, realigned it an the box slid on . What oil would you recomend for box as local factors say dextron11 ,dealers say mtf94 at double the price of factors. many thanks dru

thanks will try that, transbox is on but linkage is disconected will conect it up and try that.

hi, i am fiting a new gear box and transfer box in my 95 v8 disco, but can not get it to mate up. any tips would be great thanks dru

managed to get a gear box with trans/box out a low millage v8 for much cheapness. Now the fun of swapping them over. dru

is the lt77 a straight swap for the r380?

thanks for info, no point in getting the tdi box then looks like i will have to wait on a box for a V8 to turn up. P.S when do you stop needing moderator approval for my posts?.
