  1. I was thinking of doing something except finishing it in chequor plate. Your pics have really helped me see it.
  2. I have an anti-vibration device slotted into the runners to stop them rattling. It's called timber.
  3. Got a pic of the affected area?
  4. I'd go for the 110 in either station wagon or twin cab, you can't have enough space.
  5. My understanding was that two pumps in series offers no more output of pressure becausethe second is starved by the first and is always "waiting" for the product to arrive. I work in the process industry and the principles i would have thought are the same. But please correct me if i'm wrong.
  6. Please keep me updated to your progress. Are you going for manual or automatic?
  7. I currently have the 3.5 V8 with SU carbs. Ideally i will buy a RR with 3.9 EFI manual with LPG and no tax or mot for under £500. Hopefully everything will go to plan. What work did you have done?
  8. Just spread the load as best you can and bolt it to a cross member as you just said.
  9. If unsure remove the prop and check it out, look for worn joints. Out of curiosity when was the last time it was greased?
  10. Why not fit a good LPG ki then? I would sooner have the V8 then a 300tdi with it's associated head problems.
  11. Back on topic.... Have you done any test drives yet? What do you think?
  12. According to my wiring diagram there should be two wires. 1 goes to earth or it might be earthed via a fixing bolt, and the second a white with black tracer from the coil. I hope this helps. Have you traced where the wiring goes?
  13. If i was to buy an old range rover with an LPG kit on it, would this be a straight swap also?
  14. When changing the engine loom to suit the new 3.9 EFI is it easier to take the existing loom out and put the Range Rover one in? Or is it best to just change the bits that you need to? Where is the best place to mount the ECU? Can you get dizzy-less ignition? Trev
  15. I was after changing the engine to the 3.9EFI for longevity and improved running. Does it really hate water so much? Would i be better keeping my carbs and having my engine and transmission rebuilt? Thanks Trev
  16. Would the manual 5 speed off the range rover be a better gear box than the the 4 speed? If so would it be a direct fit conversion? The info has been great so far.
  17. Did a garage do the work for you? Or was it a friend doing the job? Some pics would be great. What transmission did you start with and what transmission did you finish up with? Thanks everyone for the replys so far. Trev
  18. I have a 1984 110 CSW which a factory fit 3.5 V8 with a 4 speed box and overdrive. I want to upgrade it a 3.9 EFI apart from the wiring what would require changing. I was planning on buying an old Range Rover Classic complete so i have all parts i need. I was planning on keeping a manual. Would it be a straight swap in terms of engine and transmission mounts? Or is there going to be a lot of custom parts? Any advice would be very helpful. Thanks Trevor
