  1. Hi guys I've just got round to dragging my trailer out of the weeds to replace all the wiring and lights ( giving problems) the reg plate was still on from my 90 i had befor the 2a and want to replace it for my 2a reg and i still have an old classic reg plate from my 2a knocking about and just wondered if i can legally fit this plate or do i need a perspex one 🙂
  2. I didn't get that far as I only placed the spare on the bonnet but I didn't like it so have put it back on the rear bulkhead
  3. In std form the 200 turbo is set at 0.9 bar and the 300 turbo is set at 1.2 bar hope this helps
  4. Hi guys As lockdown2 as officially started just thought i would ask if anyone has started a landy project yet and if so what you doing 🙂
  5. No sorry think I will keep it for a bit as son keeps Harping on about doing another rebuild but a V8 converted one this time so if we do the Ashcroft kit will be used for that but will see
  6. Today I offered the spare up onto the o/s wheel arch but wanted it to go more central as I wanted to store other stuff between the spare and bulkhead but it partially blocks out the o/s quarterlight window so I've put the spare back on the bulkhead and locking into a swing away whichi had forgotten all about
  7. Yeah i think i will go for an inside side mount i think but will look into it over the weekend, i've seen it done in an swb before but not sure yet how i will do it 🙂
  8. It was son whilst working on his golf in the garage he was thinking of bodging his golf as he want a jeep JK orJL you can't see it in the pic but i put a line through the word Jeep and put van next to it me taking the tiddle 😁
  9. Nar I don't like it on the bonnet so I am leaning towards fitting it on the inside on the rear n/s wheel arch behind the front passenger seat
  10. Hi guys I'm not really a fan of a spare on the bonnet but trying to make some room in the back but a 235-85/16 Cooper Discoverer STT looks a bit big to me, what do you think
  11. Hi guys As my std oil breather is starting to leak oil ( 200tdi ) i decided to look at other makes and after reading reviews on here and other forums i decided to buy an allisport one and was suprised it arrived in a britpart box 🤔
  12. Thanks for the offer Nick but think I will look for so nothing closer and not sure whether to go for a fairy or a rom a drive
  13. Yeah i will just keep a look out for one for decent money, would love a romadrive but to expensive.
  14. My std speedo was reading 55 when the GPS speedo was reading 75, it will do 80 but then its really screeming.
  15. Hi guys Just recently replaced my HRTC ( high ratio transfer box case kit ) for a std transfer box as the gearing was to high as 1st gear was like 2nd but 4th was great for Mways, i also have 3.54 diffs and 235 tyres which i thought would be more or less right which it is for normal roads but at 70 the engine is screeming so think i need an o/d now ☚ī¸
  16. Gearbox all tested today just got to try it on the Mway which I mite do tomorrow but everything seems ok
  17. gearbox back in now hopeing to test it tomorrow 🙂
  18. A couple of pic's from after the trannyboxes were swapped over so the ashcroft trannybox is the one on the floor
  19. Std trannybox swapped over to my g/box now just got to swap a few studs over as the std trannybox had a few missing and fit the sump plate on and its ready for going back in once i've replaced the clutch as it span whilst we was out on our last metal detecting trip due the the high gearing coming out of an awkward junction ☚ī¸
  20. Got the g/box out today so as i'm off for a week me and my bro are going to strip the new to me tranny box and see what its like, everything seems to work manually on the bench and no play anywhere so hopefully it should be ok if it is ok we will put it all back together using new seals and gaskets then swap the tranny boxes over then re-fit the g/box 🙂
