[ratio swap?]

yes i'm going to import them from the usa thats not a problem just wanted to know the best ratio to get i thought that 3.88 was available?

my buddy has a series with 200tdi and series 3 box with 35's and land cruiser axles and that is sweet just like ratio of defender, but i think he has land cruiser axles from a auto ??

[ratio swap?]

hi i have a series 2 fitted with a 200tdi with standard gearbox and land cruiser 80 series axles with e lockers, i am interested in running a set of 38" tyres but will need to change the ring and pinion but will a R & P of 3:88 be correct?

thanks

[TLC 80's on landy 88]

Hi I am about to start fitting Land cruiser axles on my Series 2 landy 88 just wondered what is the best Brake master cylinder to use, maybe a late LR 110 all round disk ?

thanks Animal

[no 2nd gear]

I have checked the nut on the rear of the out shaft still tight

thanks

[no 2nd gear]

update just took out floor and adjusted clutch shaft 10mmfor then thought what the hell and really forced it into 2nd and now seems ok but still jumping out of 3rd now I'm really stumped !!

Animal

[no 2nd gear]

no I will try another gear stick on the weekend as not at workshop until then, also going to see if adjusting the clutch shaft for clearance makes any difference

​ thanks Animal

[no 2nd gear]

hi no I fitted as was but used the old gear stick that was in my truck, have replaced gearbox mounts at time when changed gearbox, I take it you mean the selector rods and not the gear stick.

thanks Animal

[no 2nd gear]

hi I'm having a bit of a headache with my series at the moment it all started when I was pulling away after stopping, went up to 1st,2nd 3rd had to stop to let a car past then went to pull away 1st ok but no 2nd ? couldn't sort so changed gearbox for a very sweet 2nd hand unit all fine, sweet as a nut off road for 2hr went to drive home approx 15 miles got about half way again stopped to turn right then again no 2nd !! seems strange that its the same fault.

now my truck has a Detroit permanent locker in rear and a limited slip Truetrack in the front which I have run with for approx 10yrs with no trouble with a 200tdi engine and 33" tyres

Do you think it could be a fault with the rear or front locker causing wind up ? I have checked the rear output nut nice and tight.

any thoughts would be great

thanks Animal

[Air Free spool]

Hi does anybody know if a TDS Air Operated Freespool will fit a Champion C9500HS winch

Thanks Animal

[which tyres]

thanks. so what's going to be the answer are we all to run on AT WHAT is going on in this Country!!! so does this mean that we will all have to have two sets of tyres and swap over on site, if so I might as well get some dumper type tyres or will these disturb the sleeping wild life. I don't know you go to work all week pay every tax known to man and then you still can't enjoy yourself as you might make to much noise! How come druggies, thieves and the like never get hassled like normal people, its not the Taliban we need to worry about but the enemy within.... Rant over

[help with pumps and solenoids]

thanks I have tried looking on web for this information but am unable to find also need help to design my system so it all mates up

[which tyres]

Im after some tyres 35x10.50x16 now I have looked around and found the following

Silverstone et 35x10.50x16 = 33"

fedima = 36.5" to Big

insa turbo special track 33.5"

Simex £££

Maxxis mudzilla 35x13.50x16 now my mate says that these are to wide and will not dig plus my 200tdi (tweaked) will now be powerful enough when aired down to go up the steep climbs etc.

Has anybody used maxxis in anger?

Thanks Marc

[help with pumps and solenoids]

Hi need some help with parts for my hydraulic set up for series II, I have two Dowty pumps with PTO units with numbers

6162-65CU GP 240 64

and

GPR2P/65CF CP407 69 -/

I think my Milemarker winch is a Hi12000 as fitted to US Humvee but am unable to find any numbers as the data plate is missing, I think it is a Eaton/Vickers type T 18.7 cu fitted with integrated brake and solenoid block

MCD - 8075-24 Manifold block

Motor Eaton/Vickers type T ?????

Solenoids MCSCJ024DW0B00010 300AA00096A (24volt)

Sorry its so HEAVY!!

I will be very grateful for any help with what flow rates etc and in identifying these parts

thanks Marc

[hydraulic winch set up]

Thanks for the reply , I think that my MM winch is of the type fitted to the US Hummer as it has the integrated valve block on a Eaton motor but the Data plate is missing, so I have no way of knowing the cc rate of the motor. What size of motor is fitted to your winch please?

thanks Marc

[hydraulic winch set up]

Hi I have a PTO hydraulic pump 32L and a milemarker winch with a Eaton motor with integrated brake but I am unable to discover the model of Motor cc/per minute etc, as data plate missing. I plan on running though a spool valve in 3/4" hose. how do I find the correct cc motor for my winch and from where.

thanks for any help

Marc
