  1. I`ve been offered the rooftent in the picture, but the seller didnt remember the maker - do anyone of you good people know the maker from sight or personal experiences ?? Its supposedly of german origin. All opinons and information will be appreciated..
  2. on the road again, now with new windshield.

  3. A friend of mine ran that conversion in a RRC. Good engine for roadwork, never got to try it offroad, though...
  4. I did that job last week, and had great help in THIS LINK...
  5. No traces of any aircon elsewhere in the car, but will check anyhow...
  6. Personal experience I got, is that its not recomendable to was empty brass for reloading purposes in the washing machine, at least, even if stuffed in a washing net. The practice is much frowned upon by the machineboss aka Mrs... But floor carpets should be ok - please inform us about the outcome, mine whould do with a bit of cleaning...
  7. Ahh, so simple... Thanks to Fender, while I`m letting the slapping of own forehead commence...
  8. I`m currently running a what I have believed to be a slightly modified 92 Discovery (2" britpart lift, and a Kenlow fan system),with an at least partially known history from the owner before me. I haven't looked to closely at it, but have more or less done normally servicing two times a year, late April and ditto September, oilchange, lubing et al and it have not let me down. The last week, I`ve done some repairs (right side front axle, all four joints et al) after several failures in the Norwegian equivalent to the MOT , and while tinkering about, found a major intercooler in front of the OEM rad. This was a suprise for me, and points to other mechanical tweaks that may be in the shades of history of the car. My question is, how can I find a status as to what is done or not done, as to engine tweaks, preferably DIY ??
  9. Any progress on this project ?? Inquiring minds, with dashboard changing possibilities, would like to know...
  10. Hello folks Looked around to see if you fellows had some sort of introduction tread, and this seems to fit the bill... I`m Jens M from Norway, and I`ve had a case of the Landroveritis for the last 12 years, running (or not) a string of LR`s that spans from a series 1 107 (restoration project, bought as it and sold off as the same) to what I have now, via a diversity of RRC, series and a discovery V8 to what I have now - a Discovery 92 200TDi thats been around since the summer of 06. Initially bought it for the wife but she`s refusing to drive it, so when my 93 Disco Rapide V8 blew a head, I took over the TDi. Current status is off the road, repairing several MOT failures, where the most serious ones relates to steering. Current specs includes Britpart 2" lift (that will get changed to Terrafirma in the span of a year,starting with shocks on the rear axle. One of the MOT failure points), a seriously huge intercooler, Kenlow fan setup and possibly some other things that may surface (the huge intercooler I just found out about last week). Further plans for upgrades includes the fitting of 235X85-16 (I`ll try to borrow a set before committing to this, just to try it out). possibly a winch with a dual battery set up and some new bumpers front and back, and that will be that I think. Other stuff in the pipeline includes general anti rust protection (sills and floor was changed in 06), tappet adjustments, and the normal maintenance bits&bobs... To sum it up, glad to be here.. Tech archives are wonderfull...
