  1. I've also got one of the heavy duty Dixon Fabrication one's waiting to fit. I bought it with the separate chassis extensions, which pivot via a bolt through the back of the cross member to allow correct alignment. Colin
  2. Yes it's a feature! Have a search for Land Rover's official "Defender Water Ingress" manual. Colin
  3. I've only used Mintex once. They squealed so badly that I replaced them after 200 miles with genuine LR pads. Only Ferodo or LR for me since then. Colin
  4. This help? (One of the advantages of having your Land Rover in pieces!) Colin
  5. oppositelock Ashcrofts have a useful gearbox identification page on their website http://www.ashcroft-transmissions.co.uk/manual-gearboxes.html Colin
  6. Who are SGS 4x4? Like the sound of the galv hinges, but my Google Fu is letting me down. Colin
  7. My first thought was a valve cap too. You would be able to hear if one was missing though. Colin
  8. Does this help Mark? http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=56096 Colin
  9. I wouldn't have thought that the 300Tdi wiring harness would be that different to a 200Tdi, which iirc Autosparks do. At least it would be a good start. Colin
  10. It's along time since I looked at those circuits, but I'm not sure that the hazards use the flasher relay. Colin
  11. Also as a reminder, never undo a drain plug until you have removed the corresponding filler plug first! The drain plug can be fun to remove with a socket as access is a bit tight between the gearbox and prop flange. Colin
  12. The relays is always good idea on the Defender. Colin
  13. Fantastic Mike - inspirational as always. Colin
  14. It's always a nice feeling to have another years ticket in your hand! Colin
  15. The new ones have the other advantage of being able to view the coolant level from the outside, that was the reason for changing mine. Colin
  16. I fitted one of the stays that came out with the Wolf, shown to me by mmgemini. http://www.reedx.net/landrover/mods/bonnetstay/index.htm Colin
  17. I used NTC9236 on my conversion, with the original steering damper. Surely you need to use an OME Defender damper as it goes in the current position? Colin
  18. Like it Mike. Nice simple solution. Colin
  19. As luck would have it (except for me of course) I'm currently replacing footwells so have taken a few photos for you. Let me know if there is anything specific you want, though it will probably be tomorrow before I get another chance. Colin
  20. Are you following the correct procedure when refilling the coolant? If not it can cause airlock problems on the 300Tdi. Colin
  21. This should help http://www.reedx.net/landrover/maint/wiperparking/
  22. I'd have thought the cable was more likely to be worn than the motor. I don't know if it's possible, but can the cable connector in the starter motor not be flipped over so it uses the unworn side? Colin
  23. If your gearbox is an R380 then it will probably have red ATF oil in it. Colin
  24. Thanks CwazyWabbit. I'll use that method in future. Colin
