  1. I have a like brand new LT230Q T/B with no diff lock. I also have a LT230T with diff lock in fair condition. Is it possible to fit the diff lock gubbins into the better 230Q T/B? Ie by swapping the front output shaft and dog clutch from the 230T into the 230Q than fitting the front housing with the diff lock and hi/lo levers from the 230T.
  2. Try this chap, most winches just need stripping down and a good clean and rebuild.. http://www.wanderingtrail.com/Repairs_Rebuilds/warn_winch/warnwinch.html
  3. Had this on a Skyline once it was a loose pad where they slide it had got worn down badly caused by a knackered wheel bearing. The pad would be forced to the top of the calliper when the brake was applied it would only do it again if the car was reversed and brakes applied setting the pad to the bottom again.
  4. Well it was a local authority vehicle originally so seems to be from factory. Previous owner never did the upgrade and knows the owner before him and confirms he didn't do it. the wheel bearing change has made a massive difference. It drives like a 50k vehicle should now..
  5. I too need this doing with my spare fobs, in Torbay area..
  6. As title says, I fitted new wheel bearings today and saw that my TD5 90 has vented front discs fitted I thought only 110's had these fitted. Mine doesn't have ABS either..
  7. I have fitted a CB radio to my Defender and am not getting a very good reception. I have trawled the internet for advice and done everything suggested. Is there anyone in the Torbay area that knows their stuff with CB's and willing to have a butchers for me?
  8. Cheers for the help folks, got seal from Durham 4x4 and managed to fit the transfer box this aft. All good and drives 200% better now no vibration, sits at 75 smooth as silk. Now on with the other jobs...
  9. Thank you folks I will go to Wakefield as is only a few miles out of the way. Cheers
  10. Hi folks can anyone help me I need a r380 output shaft seal for tomorrow, I am in Yorkshire Thorne near Doncaster. I will be driving up to Durham in the morning to collect a transfer box and need to get the seal so I can get it fitted for the trip back to Devon on Monday. If anyone can help please call me on 07935597638
  11. Had a similar problem on a car at work, it turned out that one flexi had broken up inside and one of the copper pipes had been trapped by someone jacking the car up without looking where the jack was hitting the chasis. I never worked out why it would cause the problem it did but once all flexes were replaced with braided and copper pipe replaced all was good.
  12. cheers that will be very helpful.. many thanks..
  13. I bought a hayne's manual for wiring diagram reference, I have a 2000 W reg defender 90 the manual states it covers this model year. But the wiring diagrams don't tally at all especially reference to fuse box info. It gives 300 tdi and 2002 onwards td5 which leaves me high and dry, it would be nice if they made this clear on the cover.. Rant over sorry.
  14. Sorted!! you were right just lost sync just need to get an original switch panel with the plugs the one near your right knee so I can put it back to standard..Anyone got one?
  15. Looks like a trip to the dealers but I can't get there... do you think RAC will be able to do something with it? I can feel a expensive spend on a nanocom or Hawkeye been bought next week..
