Thanks guys.
This car is now in Denmark and the worry is to wether the mot-guy will accept it as an 127".
Do you know if its somehow possible to verify this, maybe via the seriesnumber in the vin ?
Hi
I've got a friend who have purchased what is supposed to be a 127".
But when looking at the vin it states that its a 110"
Where 110" chassis used when making 127" or is it budge ?

Hi

He asking what to be aware of and what kind of reputation they have got.
Thanks
Hi
I have a friend who have bought a chassis for 127" among a lot of other LR parts.
There are some rust but its repairable.
There are no papers/id with it.
Is this of any value or is it scrapmetal.
Its placed in Denmark and there is no market for it here.
Finish building Racer before summer - same target for the last 4 years. Mindfull building.
Refurb 110" STW for wife before easter ?
Am I optimistic - nah.
HI
Any new tips on how to free up the front suspension on a Defender/Disco/RRC ?
Apart from drilling the bushes or using the narrow radiusarms combined with the wide spaced axlecasing.
The mods have to be "within" legal standards, as the car needs to be roadworthy ?
Any ideas welcome.
Thanks
Morten
I think I need to clarify my question.
I was trying to ask about the winder mechanism and not the lever.
Guess that what happens when you post when you are supposed to sleep ?
Ok I admit it, I´m no wizkid on hydraulics, so didn´t think about the stopindicator, but it certainly makes sence .
Si, that sounds unbelievable to me, but probably true. I just bend some tubes today in 38x2,5 mm. nothing demanding. Tightened the tube to the U-bracket using a spanner, and quite firmly. The tube moved 3-4 mm. as I started bending it ?
​
Hi HoSS
Here in Denmark the rules dictate CDS 45x2,5 mm. tube.
We are bending those in a JD2, it´s quite doable and you save a trip to the gym .
For the amount of tube you need to bend for one cage, I wouldn´t bother with hydraulics.
​
A question for other using the JD2.
How do you get along fixing the tube to the bender ? I find that I either have to tighten the bolt so much that the tube is marked by the bolt or as I do now, place some sanding paper between the tube and the U-bracket.
For those of you who use the ram-solution, how do you make precise bends ?
Hope the hi-jack is ok.
As per title - what are you doing regarding demister in racetrucks ?
Is it of no need when the car is open, like no glas in doors and behind the seats ?
Do you choose another solution, have just seen a vid. on youtube where a wiper for cleaning windows in houses were used by hand ?
Let me know what you have experienced.
Thanks and happy holidays
Morten
