as will said it's a lots easyer to for funky shapes with fibreglass and filler sticks better than on metal i may be able to asist in the bodywork if you want by all means give me a shout if you want help mike

that picture must have been taken on the first stage as all the wings are intact and mouse still looks clean mike

see i told you someone on here would know if i don't see you before have a good trip mike and becky

congrats jez kim and the rest of the team was so pleased to be a small part of what has to be the best offroad team in the UK keep up the good work mike

when this first happened to me i just cut them back a bit and re soildered them and then when building the tomcat cut them out completely as early discos didn't have them or fuses at all. if your going fuses i would look at a 300tdi wiring diagram as they use fuses so you can work out what size fuses you need iirc at least one is 100 amp although your alternator is only 65amps i think mike

sika 512 is UV safe but better for sealing sika 291 is an adesive/sealant and will do just about any thing you want on a landrover plus you can paint over it. it's the one i use mike

on my tomcat (200tdi) as the rad is in the back i had the same problem so i looped a copper pipe around at the front behind the grill. at the last MOT the tester could not get the oil hot enough to do the emmisions test so i guess i've got enough cooling. mike

slightly off what your asking for but might be helpful when clear plastic(any type) gets scratched use some black colour match type polish on it you'll be suprised, what you thought was so far gone as to be useless can be retrevied to useable again. mike

if it's any help my other half sorces all the shire club merchandise she can get just about any clothing. embrodered can be multi colour screen printed is only single colour with the company we use(we have got another company that can do multi colour screen printing) the quality is A1 there quick and no min order. if you want us to sort something just pm me mike

not to pee on fireworks but what about cobra/westfield kit cars they both exit buy drivers/passinger door area and iirc they pass SVA and MOT's mike

a new bonnet from tomcat is £170.38 plus postage according to there website it would cost more than that for me to make a mould and a bonnet mike

thats kind of what i thought you would have to do good effort looks cracking mike

did you have wheel arches on it for the SVA as i had to when i took a buggie in a few years ago just wondering mike

the other thing that can make the belt squeel is if the tensioner bearing is not running in line or worn out i belive you may need to place a 1p at about 7 oclock between tensioner and block mike

you need to speak to jen or v8bertha on here as they shipped the camel from the UK there and back last year mike

when i bought mine it was labled up as a 50a/h but was replacing a 90 a/h so i quiryed it and was told by barden batterys that due to the way an optima works a 50a/h is the equivalent of about 100a/h lead acid and ive never had any problem with the cca on mine mike

great idea i'm in mike

mine did the same thing if you take the output cover off thus exposeing the alloy heating fins and run it with this off this allows a better flow of air so it runs cooler so then if it runs for a lot longer then it was over heating in which case get a service kit for it do the service and it should solve the problem that what i did with mine and it's been working fine since mike

my tyres are marked up as 33/12.50r16 but they measure out at 285 and they are on 8" rims re yokohama i can't find anyone on the net in the uk that do any bigger than 265/75r16 plus they ain't cheep colway have been bought out by a polish company and as there other remould maufactures out there theres still some hope looks like i'm going to be ringing around then mike

the size i'm looking for is either 285/75r16 or 305/70r16 and i would like the macho pattern as i have one new one as a spare and don't really want to waste it mike

doesn't look like i'll be able to get any when i want them might have to start looking for alternatives any ideas i do like this pattern it the best i've tried so far plus there not to expensive mike

i don't think insa do the macho type pattern in my size mike

does anyone know what the score is with c-tryes as in the not to distant future i'll be looking to replace my greenway machos (33"x12.50"/16"). i'm wanting more of the same but not sure if i'll be able to get any mike

my old man has a transwave converter which he runs a 3 phase mill and lathe on might be worth a google mike

not to worry me and ash were looking for somthing but i now have the answer we were looking for mike
