uninformed

Never had a problem running my saws (chain saws and conrete saws) "dry" for years. AND ive never had a problem with bad fuel or gumming up either. After I have finished using the saw for the day, and know I wont be using it for at least a couple weeks. I start, idle, stop. Drain all the fuel I can. Start and let run. When it gets to the point of starting to run funny due to fuel starvation, I play with the choke to get it to run more as much as I can. All at idle. Until its out. I bet my life there is still a film of fuel oil mix on the crank/rod bearings and cylinder wall. Ive had a saw sit for over a year after this technique, put fresh fuel mix in, choke, 3 pulls and it starts. I only use high grade fuel (no ethanol) and high grade oil.

Ill give you a call and we can go over what I need thanks mate

yes they do....

If Im fitting a new carrier (MaxiDrive) and new Ashcroft HD CW&P, what are my options for pinion flange and seal etc? Can you recommend a TIG filler rod if I ever decide to peg it cheers for your help

Palm to face.... 😞

@Hybrid_From_Hell Ian?

Not likely a 90 as they were not sold in Australia until the Td5s. As for the thread, I was chasing it with a 3/8 UNC cleaning tap and it just doesnt seem right. BSF is right between UNC and UNF for pitch count. Minor Dia was about right for BSF. Ill have to grab a bolt on Monday and see if it fits the other

Hi all, I have 2 rover diff centres ( the main cast housing, crown wheel and pinion and carrier/differential). Im after a bit of info. Any idea what they are from? early RRC? on the underside of the cast housing, there is a large flat section with two blind holes threaded. What is this thread? (im guessing 3/8 BSF) is there any strength difference between the older 10 spline pinions and the later pinions? cheers Serg

fuel tank, pump and lines as well I would think? Different belhousing and input shaft to gearbox?

I’m wondering if Quaffie where involved...

thank you @landroversforever looks like the coil sprung rear arch is more semetrical or boxy so to speak.. Old swb didnt get the wheel very centred lol can anyone tell me the measurement from axle centreline to rear of a 88" and the 90

Thanks Mike, not too concerned about the location, more so size and shape. I would be fitting flares over them.

Hey all, how much difference is there between a series and a coil sprung rear wheel arch ( the actual alloy panel) dimensional differences? shape differences? cheers Serg

you can also put the bearing cup in the freezer

Regarding underneath vs on top.... for what these are doing, underneath will be in tension, top side will be in compression. Now its been pointed out to me that steel, has the same strength in both tension and compression IF BUCKLING CAN BE ELIMINATED. How one does this with the same materail size I do not know. Example, get some 3mm mild steel wire. Hang it vertically, how much weight would it hold at the bottom.... stand it vertically, how much weight would it support at top? Problem with any of these added to a stock housing is the added stiffness ends well before the axle flanges..... not ideal but not saying they are junk either

Thans for that guys (thumbs up!) Tyres look narrower in my pic than in that link. Im sure its just the illusion. No LR diffs by the looks though

I found this pic on Instagram. No details or such. Does anyone know of it? Any guess of tyre and size?

cant imagine LR taking a backward step in engineering quality.... theyve been doing that for decades! compare 200Tdi to 300Tdi timing gears for a start

Has anyone converted their defender ,300 Tdi onwards, to AUE2522 cvs, FRC420 stubs and FRC6139 hubs? This is the cv, stub and hub off 110 Land rovers. I know that plenty converted to using the AEU2522 in the standard stub and hub on 300 Tdi onwards to get the stronger CV, but wondering if the stub and hub bolt up with no problem as well. Serg

Castrol Syntrans

just having a look around , it doesnt seem like too many options for a 300 Tdi?? More reading brought up the "claim" of Chinese made Allisport. Any truth to this? is it the core? This was a recent claim. Articale in 2018, but vehicle was a 2014 and apparently had 2 x allisport split and then went to BAS. But no idea on time frame?

Hi all , I require some measurements if possible. The width of a disc brake Sals 110, axle housing flange to axle housing flange The thickness of the axle housing flange on a DRUM brake 110 Sals The thickness of the mounting surface on a 1995> disco rear stub axle - FTC3188 (with the scollop cut out for ABS) - also defender rear 2007 onwards cheers Serg

Hey all, in the near future I’ll be looking for a full width intercooler for a 300Tdi 110. I was looking at Alisport, but it seems a few blokes here in Aus have had problems with them cracking etc. Is this a known problem with this brand or others. What other brands worth a look? Serg

OEM doesnt nessecarily mean LR
