You would get away with a 2 inch lift, as long as you have a 1.4 xfer box the truck will be fine, not great to tow with but fine for normal driving, if its a 110 them these tyres look really good under it

Not sure what you mean about the system date, computer date is today 27th time is gmt. Should these be different?

Thanks

[Microcat]

The crack I linked above only works to remove the dongle restriction. The date restriction is still apparent.

Is your system date set correctly?

??

[Microcat]

Yes it s the March edition, downloaded it a few weeks ago, and it was working fine, then it stopped working, I copied the crack again and pasted it into the relevant files but no joy

Hi Retroanaconda, I have copied and pasted the crack you posted above, I am still getting error, version is out of date at startup, it asks me to update the package, any ideas please? this is the latest version of Microcat. Thanks K

you have mail

I've put together an app that works with OziExplorer and supports Irish Grid, it acts as an overlaid keyboard for Ozi explorer and gives you a Garmin style GPS arrow over the top of the moving map and ways to add/edit/delete waypoints among other things.

I wrote it because I found OziExplorer too fiddly to use with a touchscreen in competition so put it together as a touchscreen overlay aimed specifically at challenge navigation.

I mentioned this on another discussion about X Nav so maybe that was where the connection was made ?

cheers

Dave

Hi Dave I use Ozi already with calibrated Irish Os maps, could I get a copy of your programme to work on my touchscreen laptop? beer tokens/donation to site which ever you prefer.

X-Nav doesn't currently support Irish Grid - but when I get half an hour to my self - there is no reason it could not.

I was planning a bit of a Mk2 with a few extra features later in the year anyway.

Hi Simon, Thanks for the reply, looking forward to the upgrade

[X Nav GPS]

Hi all, did I read here a while ago someone had an add on so this package would Irish Grid as well ? Thanks

[Series Grille]

I am looking for a grille like the one in the photo, does anyone know if it is possible to get one of these made?

Thanks K

Hi All

I have been offered a 20 ton press for reasonable cash, I was wondering if this would be good enough to press out landrover bushes?

Thanks K

[Vented discs]

I have a few wurth ones, a bit spendy but never had a circlip I couldnt take off with them,

[decent srewdrivers]

Vince, Wurth, they have a deal on some stuff at the moment

I think the defender 110 look really good on 35's

[Vibration in the xfer box]

Sorted :D new xfer box and no vibration

[engineers report]

Here I think it need to be a bonded auto engineer, luckily for me a local guy is bonded and does insurance work.

[Vibration in the xfer box]

Thanks Tom however did that this morning and still have the vibration, so maybe the centre diff? I reckon I'll change the xfer box at this stage.

[engineers report]

Has anyone on here looked into having a engineers reports done to asses quality of any mods on there truck?

I've had one done a few years ago for an engine conversion, is was painless and quite cheap it also made insurance easier.

I was wondering if this might be a good way to save some bother if everything went tits up at some point?

Yep have gone the same route after modding the last truck which we also used for work, had no prob with the inspection and made insurance easy, also when challenged on a site by a H&S guy was able to supply a copy of the report which made life easy

[Vibration in the xfer box]

Thanks for the replies, as for the prop, this was replaced with another, Les, checked bearing feels fine, to elaborate on above we drained the oil from the xfer box and strained it , there was nothing showing, did the same for the rear diff and same result, I have replaced the rear diff also. I am thinking about changing the xfer box,

[Vibration in the xfer box]

Has anyone had vibration caused by a bent rear output shaft in the transfer box? I have a niggling vibration in the truck, all usual suspects have been checked, changed etc and still got the vibration between 40 and 50 mph, if I remove rear prop vibration goes away, so was wondering if this output shaft could be the culprit?
