  1. Try http://www.elmdonmetals.co.uk/ they post it to you if they have it.
  2. I have had HIDs on my Defender for past 2 years money well spent they are very good.
  3. http://www.grands-randonneurs-motorises.co...rs&id_cat=4 Search around the site you will find parts in English. It's not a cheap event, and with the GBP being so weak it makes it even worse. Best to take the food option when booking in as it's very good. These are normally very well run and diff locks and tyres such as Mud terrains are OK, Simex are a over kill but some do use them, a winch is/will be needed. A noisy exhaust will/could cause problems mainly green lanes but fairly extreme one's, I take the option to start early 7.30 I think, as you find less queue's at the difficult parts.
  4. http://www.grands-randonneurs-motorises.com/randos.php Might not go this year as am building another vehicle, but it is a must do event.

  6. I just supported the bearing over a vice and tapped the shaft out, when putting bearing back on shaft press the centre part of bearing not outer.
  7. Looking good Brendan (no not you the write up I mean) thanks for sharing with us. Stay safe Peter
  8. Did one a few weeks ago, you don’t need to take cover off, Just remove cir clip, after cleaning, I wound Part No 4 back on to shaft with Allen key turning the shaft with a spacer between housing and part, 4 shaft and bearing came out with ease, hope that makes sense. I also put a small amount of sealer in allen key hole on shaft when finished, I am sure that water gets in behind bearing and thats why it failed. Peter
  9. Great to see so many of you again, and thanks to Jez/Vince/John for another set of 4 links for new motor build. Best bit was Worst bit arena display of how (not) to drive a challenge truck, gives out wrong image . Peter
  10. I would Mike, as you want to sit on top of sand not dig through it, and they would be OK in snow with chains on but you can't be sure of having snow on he cros so I do it with MT's. Mark, When buying a tyre check out for Snow chain size as well, if you have to have them made to fit the tyre they can be very expensive.
  11. I made it to Zagan on time, but could not find 6/7 have some photos will post when home, I am on a wi fi conection in Prague at the moment, and it is rather hot in sitting in Landy.
  12. Thanks for that, hopefully I will see you all in Zagan. Peter
  13. Robert, Confirmations on places and dates would be fine, I will be on my way back from the south of Poland and can change my dates to suit probably get the last 3 days if I am lucky. Thanks Peter
  14. Robert, Have you any better way points or references of where this is taken place please? Peter
  15. I will be out in Poland at that time, so I may have to make a detour or two. Have they a web site for 2008, as I can only find 2007? Cheers
