Just get your self a cheap gazebo ,i think tesco do one for about £14 and its ideal as a temporary paint booth

When they do these 50% deals they then just look for twice as many problems so they can get their money back

Here is the website with some suppliers listed http://www.teamac.co.uk/

Teamac do a land rover green that is pretty close and its about £8 a litre from mole valley farmers

If you don't want it to look all new and shiney then don't paint it

Give me 5 grand and you can have mine after i have rebuilt it

If you buy a rear crossmember from MIB developments then they are all TD5 ones ,the heavy duty one i bought from them was and i put it on my 1994 but that doesn't make it a ringer

Yes thanks Reb that's the one i saw ,probably couldn't find it because i thought it was a series it was put in not a defender .I think it is the same for a series 3 as i was led to believe a 200 will drop straight into one.

I am trying to find a thread about putting a 300 tdi into a series but without chopping up the chassis and using the holes in the block with an engine mount that went around the oil filter, trouble is i can't remember where i saw it Anyone else know what i am on about or have i finally lost the plot ?

Is that a good price for one of those ? i have one to get rid of and wasn't sure what it was worth

Blimey ,just shows how much profit there is in galvy bulkheads ,Les when you say you drilled some holes for expansion how many and where ? i thought there were enough holes in a bulkhead anyway . But going by your price it should be good to expect to be able to do both a bulkhead and chassis for less than £500

You say bolt a pas box to the chassis ,dont you have to weld in a new crossmember as well ? if its just a case of fitting the pas box to the existing crossmember then it is probably worth a look obviously i know you then need to put the pump in as well but i think that will be a bit easier as i have the 15j engine.

Has anyone fitted power steering to a series using a corsa steering column ?

I got to change the rear crankshaft oil seal on my 2a with a 15j engine in and was wondering which make of seal is best ? my local man has Doulty and OE in stock .Now i assume OE is the same as genuine but without the Land Rover packaging but not costing as much ,am i right ? He also said that the doulty is a rubber seal and the Oe is a metal seal . So which one is best ?

Did they have everything to fix the problem included in the kit ? and how difficult was it to do ?
