does anyone have the part no of the wiring loom in the wings of a td5 defender?

personally, i would speak to pete @ Bell Auto Services he supplied me with a vnt turbo & remapped my ecu to suit A the turbo & B it being used as a challenge car, its in fair bonkers, first time i drove it after fitting the turbo & ecu i came aparent i could spin 37's on dry tarmac, would have no hesitation in using pete for more tuning, Or you could speak to ian @ IRB, he can do the same etc for your td5 but in the end i went for BAS

i see that LR4x4 got a mention in of the recent magazines which strangly enough featured this vehicle & also gave a bit of its history,

depends on where abouts you are, we have a hydraulic hose company local to us that has 2 mobile vans, i am in waleshire though

dan (yella90)s wound all healed now but he is still an ugly mofo :lol:

les, thats a d2 box, a defender box still uses the oldskool screw in fittings

i was gonna volunteer speedy for you rich, i manged to not run him over @ malcs event & does what he is told :)

hmmmmm is dan driving for round 2? big boys are back, hmmmmm just cleared a space for the trophy on my mantle piece to go with the one from round 1 ;)

excellent first round with some excellent punches on a variety of terrain, the dry weather certainally made it interesting as to just how much grip was available, had an excellent day with only the demise of the stering box ( think it started on the team recovery, somehow nursed it to the end of the day) & a few new dents on simons truck,would like to thank matt & his team for putting on the event, well done to jon in the tray back & hannah & karl for taking 5th OA & team show n shine in there new truck (rich fear, Exmod90), also the glass trophy looks good on the mantle piece, hopefully we can keep up the results Mike

oh yes

Right, i currently have a whitbread buggy with a td5 powering it along, its vnt'ed & mapped etc etc so goes very well, problem ive had is that the smoke escaped from the clutch, it needs a replacment clutch & will prob go for a solid flywheel whilst im there, my query is, is a td5 R380 box the same spline count as an 300 r380/ lt77 (23 splines i think) & also is the input chaft the same size? also what size is the standard clutch? 240mm? reason for asking is i know that cossie clutches can be used on a tdi, so was thinking that a cossie clutch could be used for a td5?

hmm i reconise that windscreen bar & front winch.... is that you john?

if anyone has a britpart plastic 200tdi rad that doesnt fit a standard frame, ill give it a home as they fit lovely in my buggy

i broke one o them before, put i was involved in the age old game of traffic light grand prix

I have creepys on my buggys & have them over the simex I had on my 90, so far I haven't had any issues with them cleanin, just need to spin them faster, at the weekend it was commented to me that when they were really spun fast they would balloon & hey presto mud come out

erm NAW specially as im not allowed to drive it at the moment

Cool, saves some money for Billing

I've seen that, but it merely says the mot vehicles are permitted, it doesn't say that non mot'd vehicles aren't

Ah just realised, does it have to be mot'd/taxed/insured?

si, whats your overal width of the winch like that? with it like that could you then make a wider deeper drum aswell?

thinking about coming with some friends with 2/3 whitbread buggys, ref the camping mate has a caravan & i have camper i assume this will be fine? what about bonfire/ fire bucket? that alright?

its only that price if you go to a stealer dealer roughly £300 ish anywhere else

overnighted to sa41 ?? weight saving ahoy

i shall explain, used my stock of 200 pumps up by twiddling with them till they emptied there guts out or started leaking due to fuel pressure , fitted a 300 pump & it went better in a stock tune than it did with an opened out 200 pump, anyhoo i would say a 300 pump on a 200 works very well,

rubbish my 200 went better with a 300 pump than it did with several 200 pumps fitted
