I have yet to get a winch myself... but for an electric I'd get a Goodwinch TDS.
That's if I end up getting an electric one I do like the hydraulic ones
I think all people who drive with Fogs when it isnt foggy should get a ticked from the plod I'd even like to see Mom get one for it!
When I'm in the pug they get a douse of Main beam, 90 they get all the roof lights too! and if behind get the rear fog light from both.
This bodes well for my prop change tomorrow then .
On the front pinion nut... I resorted to brakes jammed on with a bit of wood and a brick. And then used my bottle jack under the breaker bar! Started lifting the weight of the truck, and then the almighty bang as the nut let go!
I don't know how I would choose between the two... but it might be easier to think which might be easier to sneak into the collection at a later date...
I think that points to getting the 101 for now, and then a S1 can appear some time after
Wife: "where did that come from?"
Jeff: "been here ages"
Wife: "no it hasn't"
Jeff: "but its only small, doesnt take much space"
I already have the Td5 warning pannel Which is great.
How about a new 'old' speedo, for £20 + £10 postage?
EDIT: it looks different... not sure if its a defender speedo? Speedo
Its about time I sorted out my speedo. The current speedo head is shagged. It occasionally decides to work for 10mins if given a large thump. The rest of the time it just sounds like a box of loose plastic bits.
So I obviously have two options stick with the old type or go for the Td5 type.
For the old type, I've found this one: Ebay. Is the price fair?
I can't seem to find any Td5 ones for sale on ebay! Roughly how much would all the bits cost to convert to a Td5 speedo?
The allmakes wheel bearings I saw didnt have any markings on them (didnt buy, I got timken ones instead). Don't know if this is the same for all the Allmakes bearings.
I've got an X-Jump set from X-eng. very nice quality .
If you don't know, they are the type with an Andersen connector, so you just plug the leads in when you need them, Saves getting into the battery box on a defender.
