  1. Nice to see it finally finished, shame they couldn't use the merlin Not that a LR drivetrain could handle it
  2. It also says on the log book, "Non transferable registration mark"
  3. It'll say on the front of the log book, "SVA cert issued:- " and the date.
  4. So that could be the source of the card fraud i had this week I've now had a new card and the bank has refunded the money taken from my account.
  5. Or £20 off ebay One of the great things about landies is you can repair them so cheaply.
  6. Get some old wings, bonnet and grill off ebay for a few quid, get them fillered and resprayed to match your truck and bolt them on. You could probably do this for less than your insurance excess if you get the spraying done for cash. I'd personally do that, and not even bother with the insurance company.
  7. Can't you mount the jack with an adaptor onto the 3 bolts holding the spare onto the carrier ?
  8. Thanks for the replies, so if i run a pair of standard pumps, it should be able to drain a 90 tank in about 10 / 15 minutes. Whilst on the subject, any recomendations for a flush fitting universal fuel filler cap ?
  9. Anyone got any ideas of what sort of ltr/min flow a rover v8 electric fuel pump would produce ? And would using it to pump derv do it any damage ? The reason i ask is, i'm planning on fitting another 90 underseat tank, on the passengers side, and then using the pump to transfer the derv to the main tank.
  10. For the love of god call the SVA police or even better the scrap man With all the choices of what a RRC can me made into, he built that
  11. Well there is only 3 bolts holding the whole rear axle onto it's mountings, and think of the forces which get put through them.
  12. The reason i put mine in at a jaunty angle is so that each leg of the eye could be welded to each side of the chassis rail, to help spread the load down both sides. I'd be very impressed if you could bend 20mm eyes during a recovery.
  13. I'd sugest you go for the bent ring of round bar option as it very easy to make / use, especially when the truck i burried in mud or underwater, as you can attach the winch hook with just one hand and if you make a large radius bend it's less likey to fill up with mud. Just my opinion though.
  14. Yes, but i'll probably make my own version if i do go for them as they are £130 for a rear set.
  15. Anyone got any opinions / experience of this type of light guard ?
  16. Why not modify the D2 chassis to suit the defender body, only 4 outriggers and a rear cross, then get it galved? This is exactly the sort of project i want to build, but can't afford too
  17. Or look at JT handtools were it's £3.30 The proper tool make the job so easy, i couldn't imagine trying to do it now without the tool.
