Yes I have a 200tdi auto 110. But mine is a 3 speed auto. Mine is nice to drive, but slow. If I was using it for a lot of road work I would more than likely go for a manual. But a 4 speed may be a lot better.

What about spacers ?
He does not want spacers as some events do not let you enter with them. Also theres more nuts to come lose.

Paul, I have 4 brand new/never fitted Disco steels with the centres ground and lose. £40 each if your friend is interested.
Steve
I will let him know.

I once read that you don't need to turn the middles round just countersink the other side.
What say you lot ? Would save a lot of balancing, methinks

The "dish" bit in the centre goes the wrong way to do that with Disco wheels.

Why not get some steel disco rims, grind the middle out and re-weld with the outer rim turned around?
Well he is going to try that as well, how hard was it to get the centres out?

A mate of mine is looking for some big offset wheels for his Disco. Hes tried lots of places and only ones he can fine are Mach 5s
and you know what I think of them.But where can he get some? Anything will do before he goes to Tomcat for the Mach 5s.

Are you after a jacket with protection in it??
Matt
Yep Ebay is a good place if you are confidant about sizes! I have to try all my trousers on to get the right leg length being a lanky so and so!
Yes Matt, I will get one one day
Its the only bit of PPE I am missing. I have the Bib-braces-trousers.Paul

North end starts at SN 75548 64590. Watch out for 2 land crusers and a Disco, as they will be doing it tomorrow.

Got a lot of my PPE from Ebay
Just get the proper stuff. Stihl boots new for £65 should have been a lot more. Trousers for £30 from the car boot brand new. But got a brand new Stihl hard hat from a tools place by me £25. Gloves again from car boot new for £5. I have not found a jackey as yet Paul

It gives lots of rain for that area tomorrow.

Just changed the transfer box in my 110, it has a 3 speed auto fitted. A point to note is you have to keep the main gear out of the one fitted now as the one thats on the 4 speed may not be the same. I had a transfer bx (1.4) out of a 90 and the gears are not the same. The spines on the main shaft are not the same.

A series 1 ?

Stihl for low use and Husqvarna if your going to use it a lot. Bars and chain from ebay. I got 3 Stihl chains for my 14" Stihl for £16 with the P&P. But you need all the PPE even for low use.

Don't forget "Beyond the Legend" which opened at the Halewood factory in March ( I think ).
You get to see both Jag x type ( Mondeo) and Freelander 2 being built, and there is a new off road section as well
Did Halewood about 3 weeks ago. Cost £10.

Has anyone experianced problems with Mach5 rims,was telling a friend i was thinking of getting a set and he said there had been problems with them. Seems some of them have been cracking where the spoke meets the centre plate. Anyone on here have any comment on this as they sem a very popular wheel.
I will not comment on them
But if you do a search you will find at least 2 long threads about them.Paul

A Hi-lift/Jackall works well for breaking the beads.

What about bringing it into the Santana fold, or perhaps broadening the Mahindra line up?
Iveco make the Santana engines and are looking at taking over the Santana

That what mine is, but the last owner put the 200tdi in. It was a Southern Electricity board one. Mine has the Superwinch 525 hydraluic winch on it as well.
Do you have any more info on it as I do not know of any others, but was led to belive there was about 10 made.
