You say you put a new clutch in did you use a strengthened fork. I think its with wear when the rod can push through. Was the new clutch aligned before tighting the bolts ? Do you think you are getting any feel of a clutch at all ?

Hi, You will need to get under it with a pry bar or large screwdriver and check the Hardy Spicers x 4 check the gearbox and engine mounts. I hope this is of help. Good luck

Yes bleed nipple to the top as Stellaghost ssys. 👍 For sure at the bottom would look like the best place for easier blreeding but it just won't bleed. Make sure there are no kinks in the slave hose. Let us know how you get on plesse. Good luck. Mark.

Hi, make sure the slave cylinder is fitted the correct way up.

Again Western to the rescue, 😌 thank you. That AEU4025 is exactly the same as I have on my 110 and thought it would be a better item to use than 600265 washer that I thought went on.

Hello. Guys on a 95 300tdi defender 90 does the washer 600265 on the steering shaft that the drop arm goes on to need to be bent over the nut and the drop arm. It is way to small a diameter to do this. My rescued 90 came with none on it. I put the 2 tab type on my 86 110 thinking it was safer?

Hi all. Trying to get my 90 ready for it's mot but I have run into a problem in that I dont know exactly what parts I need for the handbrake. I have a cable attached to a hand leaver, cable has a sort of stub end on the loose end (not the type you put a cotter pin through I have a back plate but it may belong to a 200 tdi I also have a bracket that looks like it bolts to the transfer box by 2 short bilts but the back end does not line up with any threaded holes. Basicly I am looking for pics or diagrams that show the parts I need. I have the 90 parts book but it is not showing me what I need Any info would be greatfully appreciated in deed.

Guys, I have been in flap with Hardy Spicers / UJs. I want to do the front and rear on both shafts and thought RTC3346 was the correct pt/no but these ujs are too big width wise measuring 82/83 depending on eyesight. The old one measured 73 / 74 again depending on eyesight. I done a bit of trawling and seen this topic. I now think I require RTC4587 superceded by TVC100010. Could someone please confirm this is correct before I order another 4 UJs. Ps I note that you guys get 93mm outside face to outside face which I do not have it mentions RTC3346 and RTC3458 are superseded by TVC100010 which is contrary to what info I have above???????????????????????????????

Hi In the small housing that the hi/low rod comes out of there is a plate/spacer with a square hole in it I found enlarging the hole allowed the rod to better engage hi/low.

Hopefully the spare will get out of a pickle. I'm no expert (buy any strech of the imagination) but try and find out if possible what might have caused the damage. Elring headgasket and a new set of head bolts (bolts about £25ish) worth the expense make sure and do the tightening in the correct sequence torque lbs and degree turns. Hoping for good results for you.

Nice job, pump the inside of the chassis with waxoil or waste oil to keep internal rust at bay.

You have had a bad run with your D1but good to know at least you can turn a spanner to help with the running costs. Good luck with what ever you decide buddy.

I wouldn't have wanted to pay for all that work, but if you are able to do it your self (it takes a small bit of the sting out of it) I'm in the same mind myself as for calling it a day but not sure. Trying to revive a 95 90 300tdi and it's been a pain in the ass. Have a 86 110 csw for over 15 years and it's never ending. Had an 88 not std a RRC a Lightweight a 200 disco and a 300 disco.

Hi Is there a download for the above a 90 type, I have the 110 one and very useful it is. Also trying to get a pt no for the front door latch button the old type long black job push down pull up. 😜

Your original from the pics is a 300tdi type identical to my 300tdi diagonal studs for m/cyl I've just taken off. Did the two new servo's look like the old?

Hi. Any chance the new servo's are for ABS models? Just a thought mind you as you seen to get everything working as it should with the old servo. The pedal should go down with the engine running but when I say down it is only slightly, like a softer pedal. Just spotted rust on my own servo and my small screw driver went straight through. (You are not alone) Let us know if you get it sorted.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll not forget that one

Guys Iv'e doing a tidy up on my 90 and want to remove the above mentioned bracket but its held down by two head bolts can I just remover these bolts and not affect the "head torque setting". Don't really want to get the angle grinder to the bracket if I can avoid it.

Aaaaaaaaaa pointy arrow head shows the way. Got it now. Thanks guys.

Thanks for that, but I can't find the steering section Aggggggggggggggggggggggggg feeling a right tit. 😝

Hi can anyone help I am looking for a Discovery 2 TD5 parts diagram to download / upload or what ever to reference from to order parts.

Thanks for the info guys very useful indeed. Rear passenger side snapped clean off at the drive/hub member.

Hi. I think i have a broken half shaft. With all wheels on the ground and out of difflock the rear prop spins but no drive is a half shaft in the rear broken? Jacked up one rear wheel it turns ok other side is the same both with diff lock engaged. Can anyone tell me correct way to check this.

Don't see it doing the offroad thing very well so I'll hold on to the 1986 110 and the 1995 90 for now. But what do I know.

Thanks guys appreciate the info and input definitely won't be buying any of that carp.
