  1. Get an LT230 without a viscous coupling....... I found the VC to be very dangerous on ice/ snow anyway..... Its quite nice to be able to play about with out diff-lock then use it when you need it..... No doing that with the VC unit..... Hmmmm Not a fan....
  2. All have their pros and cons classic vs LWB vs SWB My swb is nimble and light and does remarkably well on soft parabolics........
  3. Been running 30mm spacers for the last 2 years on a disco with no problems, replaced 1 wheel bearing in that time but I expect this is down to normal wear.... Ran big offset rims on my 90 for years and never had to replace a wheel bearing....??? Hope this helps.... Dan
  4. Couldn't get on from 10am till 3.30pm today first few hours refresh clicky was coming up then nothing/timing out....? I'm running FF too...
  5. It'll wire into your car the same way as the Land Rover alternator just the three pins.... If the pulley is wrong then just swap the pulley, it's only 1 bolt...?
  6. I'd chuck the voltage reg and stick an alternator from a 1.7td astra/vectra on or one from a 98ish Transit or similar with your oil pipe, vacuum and in-built voltage regulator... Let me know how you get on..... Daniel
  7. Take a picture from the front and from the offside (drivers side) and post them here...... Cheers....
  8. £200 fitted and balanced for 4 @ Nene offroad near Inverurie Scotland about 6 months ago 265/75R16....
  9. I would at least start by getting rid of the spacers, you must have plenty of clearance for the arches.... If not can you trim the arches and fit bigger bump stops.... Fitting longer shocks will give you extra droop to compensate. What radius arms and trailling arms etc are you running.... Got any pictures...?
  10. What is the actual relevance of a 6" lift...? Are you running huge rubber....? We lifted a friends 110 6" just for a day to get 40" rubber underneath just on the standard axles.... Can you not give a body lift for some of the clearance you require, portals or anything along these lines.... What's the spec of your rangie......???
  11. 110's are longer as rear tub area is longer hence 2 side facing seats in a 90 and 3 in a 110......
  12. Here try Coco....? 01343 550095 Cheap and lifetime guarantee... Let him know u got the number from me...
  13. You can get a wrist band from your chemist or doctor that keeps em away too...
  14. Spoon full of marmite a day..... Skin so soft..... or chainsmoking..... Or don't shower untill you get back (from now)..... Or you could try eating them first... :L :L :L
  15. I'm looking for any recommendation's as to what air con compressor would be best to use for on-board air.... Something from any make/model of car or small truck compressor unit....? Will be getting fitted onto a Daihatsu 2.8td engine... Looking for any advice or experience with different makes and models and best performance..... Thanks, Dan
  16. Your local autosave partco etc local motor factors should..... Last one I got was £3 Dan...
  17. Cheers Gary.... I will forward pictures at some point next week when I have the facilitys... Thanks, Dan
  18. It is very origional, every thing done to it was done when it was new by a company who took new landrovers and turn them into recovery trucks.... Dixon Bate recovery crane 1.5 ton SWL.... Landrover MK2 winch lights boards and fixings plugs at front and rear for 12V work lamp, extra dials and switches perkins 2l diesel.... So its pretty much an origional 1 off built to spec for the customer.... Think I'll just sort any niggles I can find, head gasket Mot then sell her.... Series 2 next
  19. Never thought of tthat just due to the expected cost implications, however i'll give them a shout and see.... Estimates I have been given have been £120-£200 per corner..... But not had an acctual quote yet.... Dan
  20. I gurn because if I lived 20 miles south or east I wouldn't have these problems... LOL
  21. As it says I'm looking for valuations on my series 3 109' recovery truck....? 1. As it is (head gasket, no MOT)? 2. Sorted and tested? 3. 200tdi Conversion and tested?
  22. I require wheel adaptors made up and was wandering if you guys in England shire could help out, I have a few places up here getting back to me with prices however they recommended looking down south as rates are alot more competitive.... Does anyone have access to facility's.... I can email pictures with all dimensions and send parts down for correct mating... Approx dimensions over all are 240 O/D and 45 thick... I am quite aware of the amount of work required for these... Anyone think they can help...? Cheers, Daniel
