    Well i changed the lift pump and filter still no better

    A Friend suggested the filter on the bottom of the pick up in the tank

    So removed sender unit from tank today and there is no filter on the bottom

    So poked a tie wrap down both tubes and the pick up one had something in it

    So a little bit of poking with a long spring and hey presto a large lump of black plop fell out

    Quick clean of the tube with some brake cleaner

    Refit and test drive and it works

    i have some new springs to try out some different combos this weekend then i will have another test and see what comes out of it. hopefully lift it a couple inches and give a bit more of a stiffer ride but not losing articulation.

    I love two door Rangies

    And yours looks very nice indeed

    think i am going to have to buy one again

    Anyone know where theres one for sale????

    Galvanised Chassis for Range Rover or Disco?

    in Range Rover Forum

    Posted

    I was hoping these companys that made Galavanised chassis for Landys / Defenders etc also did one for RR or Disco, but it seems not, unless I'm looking in the wrong place. Why would Richards etc make em for 90s etc but not Rangies?

    Edit: just found a place by searching around on the net

    http://www.designa-chassis.co.uk/rangerover.asp

    A frined of mine has a galv'd chassis for sale

    Let me know if your interested

    cheers

    in Range Rover Forum

    I want to fit a locker in the rear of my RRC 200tdi (retro fitted)

    But it has 10 spline diffs!!!!! :-\

    First do i fit an ARB Or Detroit locker

    Now my problems start do i........................................

    1:-fit a detroit 10spline locker but can not get uprated half shafts

    2:- put 24 spline disco axles on and put detroit or arb in as you can get uprated 24 spline half shafts etc and uprate shafts etc as well

    Axles

    in Range Rover Forum

    Posted

    what will i need to change on my axles to convert them from 10 pline to 24 spline diffs?

    I know i'll need to change the diffs,half shafts,CV's and hub flange thingies to 24 spline

    But is it that simple or will it be easier to just buy a pair of 24 spline axles and change them over

    The reason i want to change is i am going to buy an arb locker and you can not buy 10 spline uprated shafts

    so need to change to 24 spline

    all advice greatfully received

    Cheers
