    In fairness the Paddocks kit isn't too bad.
  2. Gazzar
    Yep RTC3528, same part.
  3. Gazzar
    I think it's the same seal as the standard series three. I buy from EAC, they appear to only offer good stuff.
  4. Gazzar
    No, but I think that the authorities react to that sort of thing a lot faster than they would to a car being robbed, or a stabbing or burglary, that sort of petty crime.
  5. Gazzar
    Jamming mobile is one thing. Messing with VHF/UHF is another thing. The authorities take a dim view about that sort of thing.

    EAC do good quality stuff, otherwise buy genuine. It's too much hassle to waste money on cheap parts.

    Gerry likes big wheels, it's part of the style and proportion rules.

    I'd love to retrofit one of the trucks with batteries, and do have plans to do this with the kit car. No gearbox, electric motor, awesome torque. When the battery and recharge infrastructure is in place, why not?

    Pictures would be really appreciated, sounds like another good interpretation of the defender theme.

    If it was me, and the bearing seats in the casing were okay, I'd rebuild with new innards. Completely.
  11. Gazzar
    True that. I only found out about 5 years ago.
  12. Gazzar
    No doubt. Won't get the time I need, though. Too much to do!
  13. Gazzar
    Sorry. I doubt I'd ever do that. If I was buying a new vehicle with my own money, I'd have to buy Japanese or Korean. Or Swedish. I simply can't stand vehicles that are unreliable.

    It could be an issue with the yaw sensors?
  15. Gazzar
    It's strange. I think the regulator is working better now. It's underreading, but not nearly as much as before. I've been doing more miles recently, off and on road, and I think that might help. I'm going to change it anyway, but not until I get time. So, that will be when I retire, I suppose.
  16. Gazzar
    You need this bit (right of picture).
  17. Gazzar
    Yes, early 110 and late series has a lot in common. The 110 was going to be called the stage 2 at one time. No idea on the 90, but probably the same idea was in place before marketing got involved.

    I know that it was common practice in the British Armed forces to simply give a squaddie a bucket of "green" paint, and a brush and let them paint. NO doubt the Norwegians were more methodological, so perhaps contacting their military archives may be a better approach?

    I fitted Monroe gas shocks. Seem okay, though I don't think I'd be able to tell the difference. It does lean in corners when I'm pushing it. But they appear to work. LWB, pick up, heavy roof rack support, 3 leaf paras, mystery brand from Paddocks.
  20. Gazzar
    Fair point. Forgot that.
  21. Gazzar
    Walking, were you?
  22. Gazzar
    Wise.
  23. Gazzar
    Aids removal of plastic and rubber stuff.
  24. Gazzar
    Penetrating oil. Silicone spray. Wire cup attachments for angle grinders. Take your time. Chase the rot.
  25. Gazzar
    But, if the truck can be off the road for a bit, then strip as much as you can first. Be prepared to remove the screen, if the rot goes that far, and the wing. It all makes the quality of the repair much easier and better.
