Thanks for the help lads, I`m not bad with mechanics but the electrics side is all a bit much but i will give it a go. Tim

Thanks for the advice, I will no doubt have problems wiring it in, wiring and alternator should be ok as i`m running a td5 engine in this one, its a special i`ve just bought off Malcolm (whitbread) Tim

Thanks Gaz thats looks just the job Tim

I have a series 11 and wanted to know if there is a heated front screen for them ? Tim

I need new brake pads on my TDV8 sport, just had the quote from Guy Salmon (coventry) £699 Tim

Like the look of that , is defender chassis and running gear with a freelander body ? Tim

Your figures are nearly correct its do the job poorly and 80% won`t return, the others are correct, Tim

Get it wrong yes of course I do, we can all make mistakes but its how we rectify those mikstakes that makes a difference. What I don`t do is make false promises to make a sale. Customer service is what makes a company, if you are given good service from a company you tell three or four of your friends, you get get bad service you tell everyone you can !! Its my sons 18th tomorrow I bought him an item of the internet as well with the stipulation that it was delivered by Fri, Fri came no parcel I called the company that I purchased it from, they had made a genuine mistake, not only were they very apologetic for their mistake, they promised I would receive the parcel this morning, good to their word courier arrived at ten to nine this morning, Mistake made ! mistake rectified Great customer service !! Its not rocket science. Tim

Sorry to rant but it winds me up when companies are quick enough to take your hard earned money over the phone, they have the most up to date wizardary to collect your cash in seconds, but then it takes 7 days to pick an item off their shelves and put it in the post. Then when you open it: its incomplete, the actual bits you need to fit to your car are missing. Several phone calls later after leaving several messages to the answer "sorry we can`t take your call we are very busy" NOT busy getting the order right in the first place I might add. I Finally get through, I am asked "are you sure the three big blue pipes are not in the box" I`m not blind no they are not !!! "Oh we must have forgot to put them in" Doh No sh*t sherlock !! "we will post them out today you`ll have them tomorrow" No apology just you`ll get them tomorrow ? well here I am three days later and still no pipes !!!! THANKS ALLISPORT NOT TIM

^^^^^^ as above I think someone had changed the ratios either knowing what they were doing or more than likely not, then sold it on and at the time I did`nt know what to look for so was sold an item that was no good to me. So I`m just passing on the onfo.

I bought a front defender 24 axle with discs, but it had 4.7 diff

I would jut add that if you buy them from separate sources just check that the ratios are the same, i`ve been caght out once

Sorry I did`nt make it very clear, its not round ? the exit out of the intercooler is a perfectly round, then there is the rubber pipe that fits onto that(Ihave replaced that with silicone one) but then there is a metal tube and the entrance end of that looks triangulated squashed in on three sides ?? it looks manufactured that way, but I was under the impression that the smoother the flow and the more you can get in the better. o the qestion is would I improve the performance by replacing it with a straight round piece of tube ? Thanks Tim

Evening lads, I have today received my Alisport full size intercooler gonna fit it tomorrow upon stripping old one out today I noticed the metal pipe that sits between the two rubber ones that feed the turbo is a funny shape, it looks like its been squashed ? now I thought that the air flow to the turbo needs to be as big and straight as possible ? is this a designed in hape or should I change it for a straight section ? Tim

I have a disc break salisbury with an ARB installed, its still attached to a tax exempt 300tdi 90 truck cab i`m selling, if i cant get the money I want I may break it as its got lots of goodies on it. Tim

It certainly looks the nuts ! as well as undoing them however I want to remove my viscous and replace with Kenlowes so its a pricey way of shifting one nut, I will go on the borrow tomorrow. thanks though. Tim

Thanks for the info on the thread hand I`d assumed it was left handed so that has saved me a headache. Tim

Thanks for the quick reply Tim

Can anyone tell me what size this damn nut is as i dont have a spaneer in my collection that I can get to fit ? Tim

Hello Steve take a look at this on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TYRE-TIRE-AIR-INFLAT...A1%7C240%3A1318 I think this what you may be after. Tim

I screwed mine to the top of the center console armrest, I know it does`nt sound much higher but it never got wet and I did some serious wading in fords and floods and it never once let me down. I had the water well over the bonnet on many occasions. Tim

Hi would agree I dont think it will fit but then I am after a steering guard for a disco 1 ? Tim

If you want a realistic weight comparison, try and lift the front end of yer motor up

Glad you are all still here after a smash like that mate, all the best enjoy France.

I`m losing me marbles not me guns
