Er.........they do have a branch in somerset...........

Ok so its a funny looking cat........

Yeah - I'd go with that - I'd use a small pneumatic cyclinder straight off of the engagement lever on the LT230. The just fabricate some sort of bracket to carry it. He presto run it off compressed air in a similar way to Nige and Paul Whiteman have on the freespools on their winches.
Parts are cheap and readily available from any Pneumatic suppliers.
Nige is your man for LT95 knowledge - he's taken enough of them apart!

Mark, I had this problem too. On mine it was the cb. It was always turned off but must be using some power as one evening I noticed the red power button had a very dull glow despite being off. I disconnected the power wires from the back and hey presto ! no more flat batteries since. Result
And I'll second that about the X-Charge from Si

1/3 to 1/2 and amp discharge is too high! You need to sort out whats causeing the drain and fix it.
A flashing led should draw about 20 mA and a CB when turned off should draw bugger all.........
You've got a problem!

Dunno - must be the time of the month!! I am a bit grumpy this morning..........just in a bitchy mood thats all really!

Ooooooooooooo Forget your AntiGrump pill this morning
Nope, fukll membership only, its been looked into and its all down to the insurance, same for the non driving winch bitches, need to be socail members to placate the insurers,
Bear in mind I hear all a well known and well respected organiser of winch events (not saying who) have been placed on hold - insurance costs and compnaies ....you guessed it
They (H&B) will accodate Non ARC etc, and Non LRs etc for the event, but the insurance is a non negotaible as they say
Nige
Nope - I just think the club is not worth joining for one event.
As I say - i know they'll accomodate anyone for this one event, but they do bugger all to accomodate anyone else for the rest of the year!
I know insurance is required, and i have no problem paying an entry fee that includes prices for insurance. What i dont want to do is pay a fortune to join a club that i dont want to be a member of! Thats why I suggested a short term membership.
Stuff it then - I'll just do the AWDC ones - at least they organise more than one event a year!

ive got longer shackles with the old spring and shocks hopefull getting some rm paras and pro comp shocks
So in other words with the old saggy springs and the 1" lift you might just about be back up to standard ride height if your springs arent too knackered.
Spend your money on a set of parabolics. Think about some bigger tyres 31/10.50 are only about as tall as a standard 7.50x16. Think about something more around the 33 - 34" tall and now we're talking.
Forget the bumper - I've only ever bent mine the once thankyou chaps - easily straightened with Nige's sledge hammer! At least i know if i hit something the bumper will bend which is cheap and easy to replace - Tonk just bends the chassis when he hits something!
So what have you done to correct the castor angle on the front, and also sort the front prop out?
Jon
-
Nope,
It will be members only, no chance of any exceptions, as it needs the insurance.
Site location and date TBA
Nige
Sigh........ok then - how about a "single event membership" at a reduced rate??
Dont want the magazine casue its pants anyway (some of you'll get the pun!) and they dont do anything else except ARC spec RTV's these days so being nowhere near ARC spec they dont offer anything else to me!
Jon
-
You need bigger tyres and a suspension lift.......
I've never had that problem and I run a standard bumper......
Jon
-
Yep,
MORE expenditure Mark
Nige
Cant you persuade them to make it open to non-members Nige? I object to having to join the club just for the one event that I'm interested in going to a year!
Be different if it was £5 or £10 like it is to join shires, but HBRO is expensive when they put bugger all else worth going to on!

Hi all,
Ive been trying to trace a wirring noise down on the front of my truck and have narrowed it down to either the water pump or alternator on my 2.5 NAD. Ive run the engine briefly with no fan belt on and the noise has gone away.
Looking at the alternator, if i push and pull on the pully left and right should there be any movement of the alternator shaft? mine looks to have about 1-2mm play. Its charging ok but does this mean the bearings on its way out?
Bearings on the alternator are knackered - there shouldnt be any movement.
Put a new one on.

Well Tonk's joined the big Knobs now........
And thats before we've even mentioned the size of his ego.......zeppelin anyone?
-
So whats with the "dog dick red" paint job on the engine then rob??
Just a thought - would a 2.25 petrol front pipe have just been a bolt on swap?
Jon

now now Jon he is above us and all that now
P.s. Tonk you grown up you!
ooooooooo now I hope you're going to appologise for that comment........

ooooooooooooh bitching session here we come then!!!!

Eh??????
Grizzly claws are wonderful tyres! I've no complaints about them at all - the best tyres I've ever had on a landrover!
Bloody good off road (far better than anything BFG offer) and not bad on road! Unless you're taking them off to put road tyres on i cant see why you'd take them off!
Bear in mind its not car so wont handle like one - only other thing i can say is are the tyre pressures correct, or are you running a silly suspension lift or anything like that?
