Hi all 1992 3.9 RRC I havnt had chance to lift up carpets etc yet but was wondering if the wiring is there already for the electric seats? I know a lot of cars will use the same loom for the higher equipped models but just have blanking covers etc + wiring there etc for the lower models Its cloth interior at the mo + if i can find decent electric leather for sensible money i will get it if the wiring is in the car Cheers for the help James

Bit of good news, its alive Theres power at the coil when ignition on but power dissapears when switch is in cranking position so i run a wire from battery positive to coil just to get it to fire, now just got to see why Cheers for the help James

sorry for the error, its an 80" reason clutch will be better is that i will modify bulk head to have the disco clutch master cylinder etc aswell meaning complete box + clutch setup will be the same as a v8 disco/rangie Not too pussed about chopping bits about etc as its more of a puposeful vehicle so moving forward wouldnt be too much of an issue as rad is going in the back soon anyway so that will give more space Think i best get measuring as soon as ive got all the boxes next to each other cheers guys for your replies James

Hi all Got an 88" coil sprung CCV trialler 3.9 V8 on a series 2a gearbox Ive had enough of extremely heavy clutch + also looking at doing a couple of comp safari's Ive got a 1.6 ratio LT230 + an LT77 from a v8 disco im breaking Im thinking run the 1.6 lt230 on the lt77 to give low gearing in high box for acceleration on comp safaris, only thing that is on my mind is will i have enough room for a rear prop? Ive also got a short bellhousing LT77 from a defender + have a series/v8 adapter plate as i think that would help with rear prop issues Rear prob is already tiny Has anyone done this + what do i need to know? Cheers James

Hi mate, i replied on your other thread http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=62442 James

I had this on my 200 shape drivers door, if i pulled extremely hard (almost pulling it off) it would sometimes open, took door off + just had to adjust the handle, all back together + 100% again James

Hi ian underneath the airbox there should be a small hose take off from the inlet manifold if i remember correctly To be honest though id convert it to manual lever difflock, i picked up my 2 door rangie which had a centre diff blown, i replaced the box, used difflock on + off in the drive to make sure working ok but when i used it in anger i couldnt get it out off difflock, no matter how much reversing, spinning up a wheel etc i could get it out + centre diff blew Have a look here at converting it http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=35985 hope this helps James

Hi mate, PM me your number + ill give you a call tomorrow still got the floor here for you must have missed your called + not realised Cheers James

are you saying thats what is wrong or thats the next thing to check? Thanks for the help

Hi all Range rover 3.9 on a j plate picked it up cheap as a non runner After cranking it over for a while i can smell a hint of fuel from the tail pipe which sort of says to me that there is fuel getting in but just no spark Checked spark at the plug but nothing then put ht lead coming from the coil v close to earth but nothing It already has a new coil + new plugs, whats the best sequence to be checking + trouble shooting? Cheers James

Hi Got an early LT77 & LT230 from a 2.25 petrol 90 also ive got an LT77s with LT230 from a V8 discovery Im going to use the later LT77s in my rangie but not sure if theres any difference in the LT230's I know about the difference in high ratio but is the low any different? Ive got 32" tyres on the rangie at the mo but may be going bigger next year What transfer box would be best to use? Cheers James

cheers for the replies I must admit good dampers make the world of difference on anything Remote shocks sound pretty good, will have to look into them What i have thought about is run single Old man emu shocks for trials + twin shocks for comps? what do you think? James

Hi everyone sorry for no reply ive been away for a while Ive just found out im having to move so unfortunately wont be able to give any definate dates etc on when id be able to get this off the ground as ill not have to find a cheapish unit to work from so if you can get someone to do then great because i wouldnt would people to be waiting needing panels with no timescale When these are going ahead i will organise group buys etc though but like i say, no idea on when at the moment James
