It's very much the way you use it. I drive a G wagen off road ( a lot) with heavy trailers on (breaking the 600kg rule). Manual lockers, strong driveline. But I've driven a lot of LSD equipped vehicles over the years. My intention , next year, is to fit ATB's to the DIsco. I'd prefet truetrac's but the ATB costs less and is almost as good. If I had the shekles, I'd fit a manual locker in the front and an LSD in the rear - because that's my personal 'most comfortable' set up. Just buy the damn things and try the out. If you don't like them, it's not like you'll lose a lot of money.

It has the same action on the levers as the milemarker 70 50080CH series of winch (still availabe now. But the MM has T handles) MM parts were made in China and assembled in the US of A. The factory that made them also produced Champion winches. Champion had a very shortlived run of two speed winches, but I can't find any pictures. I have used Champion cases on MM, when the MM cases fractured.

All looks MM except the freespool and gear levers - they are different - but only slightly

Nice Silverado

Pretty sure I have all that - thank you Mike

He's been doing all sorts of crazy journeys. I'll give him a shout and find out where he is at the moment

Hell aye! Apologies - it was a Chimerea https://www.topgear.com/car-news/british/man-has-driven-his-tvr-across-21-countries-pub Ben is a cool bloke, so laid back he is horizontal

Just how easy is it to swap an LT77 for an R380 in a 93 200tdi Disco?

Not as good as a TVR Chimerea

I would still ring the Police and ask for a crime number, citing the situation. Every call is logged and it remains logged, so next time.... I would also mention it to your insurance company, again for the same reasons. The BHS interpret the law with their bias and this is an argument used in court. But believe me, when a horse causes an RTC , the owner will be held liable, therefore opening the case up for criminal damage if the incident is minor. The other question a barrister would be asking is 'why was the horse on a footpath?'. Footpaths are not for horse use, it's in the name.

A horse is a domesticated animal, so the rider is responsible for the damage it does - similar to a dog biting someone or causing a car crash. All horse owners are advised to carry tpl I would inform your insurance company and get a crime number form the Popo

My biggest concern is the total lack of sustainability in our lifestyles - this utter contempt at living in harmony with our planet. Global warming is here. It's done. We need to learn to live with it, try to slow down our self destruction. But we are too selfish to do that

I think it's the old opencast at Ystradgynlais - but looking on Google Earth it appears to have been re-opened for Gleening - the area that was on fire is slightly south of the operational section Look up tyre fires at Heyop near Knighton - that was a doozey 5. Heyope Tyre Fire, Wales While this disaster caused no fatalities, it makes the list for the record-breaking amount of time the fire burned for – an astonishing 15 years! Started by arsonists at a tyre dump in Heyope, near Powys, Wales in 1989, the fire spread to involve all 10 million tyres at the dump. Being so densely packed together, firefighters were unable to extinguish the blaze, which smouldered under the surface of the dump until 2004.

Yes. But it was surrounded by pits - Seven Sisters colliery, Nant Hir, Dulais etc. It's called Banwen by the locals or Banwen Pyrddin. We knew it as Dyffryn Open Cast or Dyffryn Cellwen I worked on a lot of closed pits and opencast sites, doing the green bit of the land rec, firstly in South Wales, then Cornwall and abroad. Seven Sisters was off because generally we would return a lot of it to grazing or make it into a forest Park,like Afan. Seven Sisters was planted for soft wood timber - mainly larch. I'm suprised that Walter Mining, who own it, havent opened it up again to gleen coal out of the spoil - like the mountain that they removed to the west of the site - there's a lot of coal in spoil heaps... Theres an open cast up the road form Seven Sisters that was part filled with thousands of tyres, it's been on fire for thirty years plus

I've got some somewhere - pre digital. I keep meaning to dig them out; so I'll see what I can find, don't hold your breath though

D3 was a lesson learnt from L322 - overheating fuel and air pumps were a big problem in the first year or so My double pumper has a thermal fuse in the control box. They aren't cheap so I expect the PCP was the cheaper way to go. The Dirt Lifestyle type is a generic version made by T-max for everyone from Vair to Harbour freight

Gear knob removal tool

What would the PCP do in this situation?

As in "oops, I appear to have put my foot down on the clutch and am hurtling to impending doom"

If you buy that thing of Will's, doughnuts would be the order of the day

The site is about 2.5kms by 4kms, with almost 100kms of surfaced tracks - before it was used as a giant pay and play site. I worked on 14 of the 16 landscape phases, so we are old friends. Almost 30 years now. since I first went up there. When I was last up there, I found areas where no one had been; not even to burn out stolen cars.

As it's a large part of my job, Environment is quite important to me. I've actually read it - well. the Summary and Technical summary. There are holes large enough to steer the Queen Mary through, but like any technical report, those holes are only noticeable if you know and understand how the environment works. Carbon calculation is very much a random number generator; and Carbon pollution is a very misunderstood science, beloved of politicians and trouble makers the world over.

But that new power station will have to be built. The EV will have to be built - so many enormous carbon holes, again and again. Day to day running is nothing compared to the environmental cost of the build.

I must admit I did question that.... My twin pumper doesn't have a pcb, from new (Tmax 18 years of abuse), it's just switched feed with a fuse
