crank pulley

any more infoon the mods to get the engine running on factory management???

nice...send one over as a demo

Engines are identified by the number, which is usually on the block. newer engines have numbers on heads etc. So under kit car rules the original chassis can be altered.

ah ok thankyou. DVLA say Get an age-related registration number You can apply for an age-related number if you can prove you’ve used 2 original major parts along with: a new monocoque bodyshell, chassis or frame from a specialist kit manufacturer an altered chassis, monocoque bodyshell or frame from the original vehicle The registration number will be based on the age of the original vehicle. Your vehicle must pass the relevant type approval test to get an age-related registration number. https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-registration/kitconverted-vehicles

so if i was to build a "special" out of a discovery using all the parts except the body and chassis would hat keep the reg? like a tomcat or a tubular chassis whitbread thing?

whats a REG number? after thinking a bit i think your in Australia?

200 tdi, best engine LR produced. Get one!

If the TB is in neutral then thats it

whats it worth? £1000 tops. he must be aware of storage charges etc so he ca do the maths and now knows he's in debt. get the paperwork up together, bills for storage etc and go see the police, tell them you want to sell it to recover costs. I have done this on a debt a few nears ago, i repossed a vehicle, i had the spare keys. i told the police what i had done and they told the man he had lost his car.

does it have the rubber donut? does it have worn uj's and half shafts in the axles?

fit disco 2 rear air springs and alter the rear to suit. when you have a load on the front will be higher than the rear if you change the fronts.

why bother, better diesel engines with easier tunablility.

i personally like them all. what i don't like is the prices £48,000 for the disco sport and onward through out the range. But it's pumping much needed revenue into the country, lots of expenditure on new plant , technology and jobs. Something that hasn't been done since the 70's in the motor inductry. When my numbers come in i'll have a RRS on the drive.

its a tdci bulkhead, don't want distorsion in the bit you can see. i can bash the hell out the bottom if i need to persuade it times upon me as i'm off on my travels soon, tomorrow actually, with work. it'll wait.

why not get another bulkhead and galv that. the waxoiled bulkhead shouldn't rust that much so you could sell it.

ok thats good to know

was thinking that the top section is more likely to deform?

yes i like the idea of an "over" and an "under" drive on both high and low box. are they ashcroft / a n other brand? HD ??

Been tidying up a bulkhead ready for Galvanising. I've done a few other bits in the past and all have warped a little. As this is a going to be part of a tidy , read expensive!, build i want it as straight as possible once done ready for paint. Where would the best place be to be to make a mounting frame connect onto the bulkhead? or would a wire / bolt system be better.

well she's been parked up now for some time i tried to start it and with a wiggle of the wires, smaller black one? it started. so i think starter out and look at the wiring first off

put a 300 tdi turbo on it. use the manifold aswell. much icer with more boost

transfer the d2 loom and all ecus'in defender along with the box. D2 are getting cheap now
