Chaos

Gutted to hear that will keep an eye out

Hi Peeps, Is there a Sat Nav system or a set of maps (I don't Mean Ordanace Survey Type But Electonic) that includes Green Lanes, My Tom Tom GB maps don't include them just wondered if they are catered for......

I Can't Agree with the comment about Vintage Landrovers, Not a lot about for the series Landrover, I came away empty Handed not finding the parts I needed

Thanks Chaps............ :rolleyes:

Hi Guys, I have been offered a gearbox off a 109 LWB Landy for my series 3 Lightweight, As a LWB is heavier are the ratio's the same, Thanks in Advance

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but is there any more news about another Salisbury Laning Day............

I use Neutra Rust 661 and can thouroghly recommend it, very easily applied, very liquid so runs into the crevises, actually needs rust to activate,and can be painted over direct with either waxoil underseal, hammerite or paint, used it on a Very Rusty Rover P6 sold said vehicle 3 years later and still very much rust bubble free, I do not work for the company I hasten to add........................... Still using it on my Landy........................1 litre goes a long way................... Used on North sea oil rig Legs apparently

Anybody mentioned http://www.muddybottom4x4.com/ just off the ferry for you Wight Boys Look at their Gallery. challenging enough for you.................

Going here myself Dalton Barracks, Abingdon Airfield, Apparently they trained the army boys here, 4.5 miles of muddy fun, just look at that arial photo...........oooo got goose bumps.................. http://www.abingdon4x4festival.com/

Thanks Fridge, Although EP90 in a Gearbox sounds strange would of thought engine oil Thats Handy already got 15w/50 in the garage

Hi Guys, Only having my Landrover 1 week I am unsure what oils to use, I am OK with the filler/level plugs but do not know what grade oils to use in the................ Engine, Gear Box, Transfer Box, Diffs, Front Hubs, My Landy is a 1974 series 3 Light Weight FFR Any help would be appriciated

Thanks Guys, Checked my hubs, As Phil says I have the flat flanges as oppossed to the tin caps, don't know if this gives you any pointers as to whether they are 10 or 24 spline ends, After listening to you're debate whether to fit them or not I have decided to give them a miss, Thanks for your input..............

Hi Guys, I have just purchased a 1974 series 3 Light weight and would like to fit free wheeling hubs to the front, I am looking at 2 different sellers on fleabay one is selling 10 spline fwh and one is selling 24 spline fwh and I am unsure which the vehicle has, can any one help me, Many thanks

Interesting development, brake fluid in the steering box will make the seals swell as the rubber/fluid criteria is different. Hence the leak cure, all right on a road going vehicle. I am a Licensed aircraft engineer can I try this on a Boeing 747................. Awaiting your informative replies............... Are you flying on my aircraft...................... :lol:

When I had My Series 2a Hybrid with a dual battery system, I used an MOD Ammo box on the rear side of the Bulkhead, looked like it belonged there,not out of place at all, with another one on the right side for all my loose items,

Hi Guys, Went to see the L/R today and am afraid to say it was a bit of a shed,from chassis down all was good,unusual to say that, But bulkhead, doors, roof all suffered from lack of use(been parked up 4 years) the Vm diesel lacked power and would not rev above 2500 and smoked probably why it hadn't had an Mot in 4 years, pity really as it had a interesting bit of history to it, Made a pitiful offer on it as I would really like to re-engine it to a motor better suited, up to him now, Thanks for advice and especially "mpb" for letting me have the workshop manual, See you on the Muddy Stuff.... :P

Arh So what engine would fit an LT77 Gearbox

Do you know if the VM engine used a L/R Gearbox and bell housing, and did the VM pick up on the existing engine mounts, If cheap enough I am thinking of re-engineing, What would be a good alternative 200/300 tdi V8/V6

Thanks Guys, Bit undecided now, but as Bog Monster says if its cheap.....................

Hi Guys, I have just been offered a series II fitted with the italian Diesel Engine, VM 2500 TD. I have not been able to source much information on this engine, can you peeps give me some pointers on the good and bad points of this engine, Thanks in advance

Hi There, Google "definitive maps" for your area, you will find the driveable lanes, you will need to transpose to a good O/S Map, Landranger series are probably the best, hope this helps, Oughta to say Hi Guys as this is my first post on this forum
