  1. On the 110s it is because there is no external hoop between the front and rear doors. So on a 90 there are 3 hoops so the internal one is not as needed. Still, I have full external SD cage and that will be getting an internal hoop and backstays sometime.
  2. I believe all the heaters are the same up until the Td5 stopped being produced .
  3. Could be steering UJs... mine were VERY bad before the MOT, try a squirt of WD40 on them and see if it makes any difference.
  4. I'm 21 in November and I want to celebrate it with something car or Land Rover based. I quite like the look of the Gold Factory tour, but I was wondering if there is anywhere that does experience type things in a Wildcat? A couple of friends of mine have some supercar experiences... but I'd rather do something LR related! Or, does anyone have any other ideas to suggest? Thanks in advance
  5. That photoshop job looks great . and I think could quite easily be made more modular. Has a lot of similarities to the latest Ibex!
  6. I normally do them by feel... tighten until it starts to bind, then slacken of a bit and retighten by feel. Other one I read was tighten bearings up to 61nm, back it off, then tighten to 4nm. Then tighten the locknut to 61nm.
  7. I'd have taken it for a longer, more shameful one . There is a Nissan dealer somewhere near here that has a 90 as a tow vehicle, regularly see it towing Xtrails about
  8. Yours is a TC right.... why not have a rear snorkel?
  9. She is wrong, you cannot compare the Evoke and a defender... One is designed to go with a gucci hand bag, the other a pair of wellies or boots!
  10. I think the reason that the seal lands wear is because the grease is less likely to lubricate them than oil. so the seal is more likely to run dry.
  11. I wonder if the defender as we know it could live on like the Lotus 7/Caterham does?
  12. My only worry with that was the fact its not that easy for the oil to get in there?
  13. If Land Rover can do what Jeep have done, they will be on to a winner. One side of me can't wait to see what they finally come out with, the other side doesn't want to see what abomination they come up with .
  14. What is the advantage of the JCB blue over the Castrol LM I use?
  15. How have you not set yourself alight yet?
  16. Nick, have you got this sorted? My shafts are out and sat there doing nothing .
  17. Changing some wheel bearings yesterday reminded me what a tedious job it is to cram the bearings with grease. Is there an easier method than just massaging it in with your fingers? What's the best method you've come across?
