  1. Hi had a new cable fitted at work a few months ago now the catch has seized Have taken the grill off and tried to move the little lever manually but it just wont pop up. Have tapped it with a hammer too but no joy. Any suggestions ? Also would like to replace it with one like this if anyone knows where to get one thats in stock as thexmod has sold out.
  2. Hi do you have any of these left ? Failing that: Hi how much would you charge to so a set, if I found some. Im not far from winchester and can drop them off (once found)
  3. Thanks tried the brake fluid thing. No joy its p*&ing out. Used almost 1/2 ltr driving round the block with a dripping trail behind the car. Looks like time for a new box.
  4. OK cool I will try that. I might go the new box route if that doesnt work as thhere are lots of seals ! Even if it slows it down enough to get me to work (55 miles away) and get a mechanic there to do it for me it would be worth it. Thank !!!!!!
  5. Hi Im new to land rovers. Just got a 1990 90 with a 200tdi engine and been putting the usual steering guards wheels towing points snorkel on etc and was out for the second time and lost all my power steering fluid. I put 1 ltr in and that was gone within 30 mins too. Having a look today I see a leak at the back by a little slot. Pics attached. Do I need to buy a new steering box ? It looks like a plate at the back I was thinking it might be just a seal. If so is this easy to change. Any advice appreciated, Im willing to have a go but seem to be working on it more than driving it.
  6. Hi Muddy, the range rover classic wheel you have, will it go on a 1990 TD land rover, mine is the type a one here: http://www.web-rover.co.uk/nav.php?p=articles/steeringwheels
  7. Got a boss from gigglpin, but think it must be worng as it was £19 and looks like it will bring the wheel forward. Is the gigglepin one that you all talk about a "modified TD5" one ?
  8. Hi thanks for the info. 380mm is 15", I have an email from gigglepin and they do a 15": The only 14" wheel we can supply for that age Defender is a 3 spoke vinyl wheel which costs £38.00 +vat and the boss is £16.40 +vat, you can view this wheel on the www.bearmach.com , they also do a 15" wheel to suit your vehicle in leather which is a nicer feel. ( £55.00 +vat.) and same boss. Kind Regards Just out of curiosity what size is the thin type steering wheel on the 200tdi's. Havent measured it as its a work 60 miles away and im not in for another week ?
  9. Im having problems and will need a new wheel. Just been off roading today for the first time, enjoyed it. Im 6ft 5", just put mud rails on and still having problems pushing the brake as my legs are too long for my 1990 defender 90. Looking to get a new wheel. I have the thin large one at the moment. Ideally dont want to bring the wheel any closer to me either as it feels close enough at the moment. Not sure if a td5 wheel will make enough of a difference.
  10. Its a bit out of my price range and over 500 miles away. I live in Portsmouth and he is in Scotland.
  11. Hi what other forums are worth looking at as im on the lookout for a defender ?
  12. Hi Im new to the land rover thing at the moment, but am keen looking to get one as alot of guys at work have them with one guy having about 6. I work in a body shop so I was thinking of getting an older one that needs a respray as I can get that done really cheap. But this looks nice, shame its not on the south coast near me and £6500 like the guy above priced it I would be on my way to have a look !
