  1. Hi Everyone!

    I am new to the forum and also relatively new to the joys of Defender ownership… Being very inexperienced yet keen with marginal mechanical knowledge (great combination - just be pleased I am not working on your lr!) I have a number of repairs on the go. Oh yes you can read from that it is in many pieces and now not even close to being back on the road! :)

    Anyway this is a great thread (thank you) but have got as far as I can and now I am stumped.

    I have done the tests outlined at the start of the thread and all successful when I use the permanent supply. However when I try to repeat the tests using 'Light switch supply' instead of 'permanent supply' with the ignition switch on second click I get nothing.

    The problem I am trying to resolve is my speed gauge, fuel gauge and temperature gauge all read zero (back lights and odometer still receiving power) and my indicators will not work with the ignition on. Hazards work fine both with ignition off and on.

    Keen to know what I should try next? Thank you!

    Did you check the fuses?I think the problem is in one of the fuse

  2. the problem is that the references that are in pages, doesnt exist in paddocks or lrseries...

    i woldnt post this topic if the references were the same...

    I already found the parts that i need in lr series...now is just a matter of overcoming the fear of making the deliver and pray that the package arrive in portugual.

    There are some parts that in lrseries are cost more than paddcoks like the starter motor....but much cheaper than portugal.

    Sorry for my english, im portugese.

  8. Do insa do a 35" Tyre now? Are you re-gearing for 35"'s, Axles or an Auto with an early 110 Tranfer maybe?

    I assume your are gonna adjust the castor angle upfront for the lift? You mentioned you wanted good road manners, the steering can be a bit wooly without some adjustment.

    No, well ive got a friend that have a defender 90 300tdi.

    he can rum 35/10.5 r16 silverstone, so i think i can manage.I was trying to find a reduce kit for a 94 defender 90 transfer box at ashctoft.Any ideas?

  9. Well, the tyres i will bw running are insa turbo special track 35/10.5 r16...

    About the kit i would go for terrafirma shock, ome springs,2 inch lift....and i would change the Challenge Rear Shock Mounting for this Challenge Rear Shock Mounting 3 position,change the Rear Spring Retainers for Heavy Duty Spring Retainers.

    I me not going to buy the front and rear propshafts for now, and the rear trailing arms.

    This is my idea.
