it was a joke, both Kev and John are extremely goods fans and participants of laning and clubs.
Cheers
Steve
Well its worth a try

In that case Paul you may want to PM Kev, above
He may be able to put in a word with John Carroll for you and see if LRW can squeeze you in with the organisers. Although I hear he's not a fan of clubs or laning! 
Steve
Thanks Steve,
Kev PM sent

Anyone know how to book a club stand in June?

Whats the difference Bracco?
L and R means where the air comes out of the compressor. Right or Left hand side.

York 210L or 210R ?
Either if its cheep.
Paul

the only one I would recommend is simply4x4 for £30 a day and considering one ARC club charges £30 a trial petty good value.
I would not, I have met Keith (who runs Simply 4x4 a number of times) and I have meet him out with large groups, up to 17 4x4s.
If you every want to go laneing in mid-north wales just give me a shout and I will lead you for FREE.

Just a side note, My york setup has the oiling mod, and has not used any oil for the last six months.
It is said that the oiling mod "could" cause the seal to dry up, but I have no evidence of this happening.
As much as I can find out, it was fitted on RR between 1982 and 1986 with aircon as a dealer fit.
Thanks for all your help. I will start looking for a compressor next week.

Just having a play in the garage, i've found a spare V bely pully and electromagnet clutch unit for a 210 (or same shaped/different spec) York pump.... i bought a serpentine pulley from Kilby when i was in the states last time (ready to go on my 300Tdi.... it's been "ready" for about 3 years now...
)Shout if you need it.
Will do, thanks Jim.

Thanks Jim. I know what to look for now, the bigger the better:).
I will have to do the local scrap yards next weekend to see what I can fine. Still not if its best to go for the york or the Sanden one. Will see what I can find.
Also can I fill the compressor with grease. As I have some non-melting grease here? Use to use it in a place I use to work on smelt pots.

Thanks Matt

As I added its getting what the PSI and CMF output of the pumps thats hard to find. As when I do fit it I only want to do it once. Making the brakets is not a problem. Once made I will get them all made out of stainless steel ( I know someone
) An a tank is ok as I still know people who still work at the place I use to work at that make tanks. So a custom tank for where I want to fit it would not be a problem.But as I say still looking at for now so any input is fine by me

Thanks for the info Diff. I am still looking into it and doing a lot of reading. For now its just for the tyres, but maybe more. As I have said I have looked for 12V electric pumps, but it means spending a lot. Do you have any pictures of your fitted?
Paul
Edit to add,
One of the problems I do find is working out/finding out what the CFM and working PSI of the pumps is.
-
Is this the same as the one fitted to the RRC circa 1987?
If so my mate has a take off from a RRC that he scrapped if that is of any use?
In the south Wirral area
So it might be of use!
Paul

I have also looked at electric pumps, the one off of a Merc van is a good one but its a 24v

I missed a York on ebay the other day, went for £22 !!!
Paul

Will somebody please back me up here!
The york (with its own sump) WAS fitted to Range Rovers!
I have one, it works, etc etc I did the following This modification
I will have to start looking at old RR then
Just I have never seen one on a RR that I have ever seen. I will have a good read of that/your site as well. Thanks.Paul
-
The ones I have seen, I am looking for, are not the same. The pump is a more up right design. looks like this http://www.kilbyenterprises.com/york-manual/pdf/4.pdf
Paul
-
AFAIK its not the same. The York has its own oil sump, where the rrc aircon unit uses the coolant to lube the pump. But I could be wrong.
Paul
-
Anyone? I want one that takes a V-belt as I have the pully fitted on my 200tdi. What cars were they fitted to?
Paul

Does not give us much time to respond. i.e. by 20 April ? Assume this is the date you mean't.
Interesting the NPA (National Parks Authorities) don't actually have to consult any outside bodies like LARA unless a rep makes their presence known.
So looks like that's the Peak District out of bounds soon. In fact all National Parks.
Cheers

I only found out about it last night, thats why its an asap one. But yes the date is right.

Shropshire County Council has received an application to add a restricted byway to the definitive map. At the present time the route is not recorded either on the definitive map or the highways map. It is not an unclassified road. The user evidence that has been submitted indicates that the route should be recorded as a restricted byway. The historical evidence also indicates that the route is a public carriageway i.e. a restricted byway. If you have any more information on the route in question I would be pleased to receive it. I believe the track has been used by vehicles by permission for the occassional rally. It does not appear that it has been used regularly by vehicular traffic as of right.
We are not seeking to downgrade a route at all. It appears that several
people have mistakenly assumed that the route is already recorded as a county highway. I shall be investigating the issue as a priority as it is contentious locally. Any information would be gratefully received.

My Hydraulic winch

Well as some of you will remember its a Superwinch 525 winch, hydraulic driven. Well its never have the power to pull the 110 out. I have got it down to a drive motor problem. So wheres the best place to get a new one?
Also the oil looks odd (could be water in it?) I plan to change the oil asap before I get a new motor or at the same time. but its been tested and dose the needed 2500psi. But could the poor oil cause the drive motor not to drive right?
