  1. Thanks for the responses - good news as one less thing to fix! Clearly i was mistaken as i had a td5 a few years back and was sure your couldnt slide across whilst in H or L. Anyway so what happens if you accidently knock into difflock whilst moving - does it cause damage? Cheers
  2. Afternoon Fellow handy landiers! So i have been rebuilding a 110 with 300tdi/ R380. Whilst fiddling last night i noticed there seems to be no system (that is normally present) to stop you being changing into non difflock and difflock whilst in a high/low range i.e. normally you must be in neutral to change across to the difflock side (following the path of the letter “H” follow where as i can all paths like letter “B”). I can select all 4 combinations (low and high range in non&diff lock) without issue. Additionally my difflock light is always on. (goes off if i pull the cable). Has anyone else experienced similar issue? Any solution much appreciated..? Thanks Duncan fiddling last night i noticed that I can select
  3. Hi Guys just wondering if anyone has galvanised the sill and B pillar (and C pillar) assembly on a 110. I want to but there seem to be some bolt liners through which the door hinge bolts go through. Would I need to get them out (how?) or just go ahead as is.
  4. Hi, I am restoring my 110, and planning to galv the b pillar part etc 2 questions - 1. is the sill, b pillar and c pillar all welded together. 2. I want to galv the lot too but there is a insert inside the b piller which has plastic tubes in for the door hinge bolts. how is this removed?! cheers duncan
  5. Thanks guys, Sorry for the confusion its a Utility station wagon - ie 5 doors. (though i dont think they made the utility in Dreg so guess it was changed at some point). Mo how much you offering?!
  6. Hi Folks, I have just taken ownership of my Dreg 110 (currently utility but to be CSW soon!). I was hoping if people could give me a list of does and donts etc for a rebuild. Car currently: 2x salisbury axles, 300tdi gearbox ...unknown but not that slick to say the least) Full galv chassis doors all good, Utility rear. Interior pretty bare/got dodgy seats in it - dash is good though. sunroof (i would like to keep but know they are a pain!) The Plan as i see it at the moment: 1.Strip all panels, blast and galv ALL steel work, and send all off in bits to get repainted (prob met grey - is it bonetti?) 2. Have a tinker with any mechanics that need it. 3. Look at gearbox /clutch. Rebuild and Add following: 4. swing carrier - thinking paddock spares one 5. Side runners - are the brit part cheapos ok? 6. Boost alloys and Bf goodrich - what issues here? 7. small amount of checker - already got just needs cleaning..? 8. Snorkel - best one and place to buy? 9. Rear step (NAS what ever that means) - best place to buy? 10. and swanky roof rack at a later date So I would appreciate any help/ comments on things to do during the rebuild i.e. 11. Door hinges - galv ? 12. galvenising things, 13. cheap interiors, seats, carpets... 14. is it really worth putting discs on back, and vent on front? 15. gearbox / clutch jobs. 16. using SS bolts or not (i thought they would reactive with ali), 17. drill all poprivets and re rivet after painting or not? 18. Cheapest/best place for parts and accessories? 19. top OS wing is sagging - can i sort out or replace? 20. OSF door is sticking out a bit at bottom...how to fix other than kick! 21. Wierdly there is a gap on NS wing by the bulkhead but not on OS any ideas why? Appologies a long post but it could be longer!! cheers Duncan
