Hello all, im after some advise. Out of the blue, my 90 has started to get a very dangerous steering wobble for no apparent reason. It’s not even consistently happening. I’m not even touching the brake either. It starts gently and then the whole car is violently shaking all over the place. Any advise very much welcome. regards Dave

I’m converting mine to Auto. I have just purchased a D3 centre console with cooler box. Will be interesting trying to fit it but I’ve seen one done in a forum. Looked good too which is why I went for it

I have competed against Mark burton many times before when I was in the Navy. He has a very good track record when it comes to driving. I used to with the help of rangy rover (mark) run the ex compass rose in bovington army base. It was all bar 1 year 100% off road. Mark and I used to spend weeks doing the recce then just before an event decide to work out a route for the comp. excellent times for some free and decent off roading. Ask mark how deep a Landy that's not waterproofed can go into a tank wash lol

As Mark says above, this is a cracking event. We used to do all the military events ( for obvious reasons) and really enjoyed them all. It's a great chance to share some beer and conversation with the boys and girls you only ever hear about in the news. The scrutineering is tough and in a lot of cases, so is the event..it's all done in good spirits though and the spirit of the event cup is always nice to get if you have had to sacrifice your event to assist those in peril!! Lol

I have a problem that doesnt seem to be covered by any of the answers on here. My indicators are fine! Hazard lights are fine with ignition on. Ignition off no hazards! I have fitted new switch and new flasher but all remains the same. I have check permanent supply and all good. I have even run a line to the switched supply (green) and it then works. Trouble is, everything else works too when it shouldn't as the ignition is off! My problem is that I have re-built this car from the ground up and never had an issue until the last MOT when they tested them properly. Did this problem exist when I had the first post rebuild MOT done??? did it exist before the rebuild??? I am at a loss for now. Any other help would be great. If there is an friendly auto electrician in the new forest area who would like to pop in, that would be great too cheers Dave

I have an issue with my Hazard lights. With the key in the ignition and switched on, all 4 corners flash as you would expect, but remove the key/turn off ignition, then nothing happens. I have a permanent live via the purple and have also renewed the switch. I have done all the tests I can think off, so now I am here looking for some inspiration. The only hazard indicator I have is on the rocker switch itself. Is this right. It's an early 90 with a 300Tdi upgrade. Any help would be very much appreciated Dave

Hi, I'm looking at getting a raptor dash as they do look great. The question I have, is how does the CB fit in there. I have nothing with my CB that would keep it in place. Do you get a bracket of perhaps an insert like with the stereo?? cheers Dave

bugger, thats a shame you have a 5 door. I have some for a 3 door!!

Welcome to the forum Martin. Are you gonna be preparing your 3 dr disco for off road? I have some wheel arch extentions for a 3 dr when you get some money together???? regards Dave

On the back of my TD5 chassis, mine is similar to the picture but rather than having individual tabs like that, mine is almost like a piece of angle bar with holes deilled and welded nuts fitted.

hi, I have just done a rebuild onto a Galvy chassis. Brake pipes were held in place by the proper fuel clips you can buy from and landrover parts stockist. Perhaps they would fit your brake pipes too as they are quite flexible. With the loom, I re did the whole length with insulation tape and then I enclosed it in a long length of the cable tidy like this (http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.202-5905.aspx). This allows you to pull the wires out to the fuel tank etc but it quite tough stuff. I then cable tied it to the top of the chassis rails. I wouldn't advice you to route through chassis leg as the galvy inside will cut loom to bits. The MOT chap, was more than happy with my method. Hope this helps Dave:)

Hi Mark, I have half leather recaro seats in mine so will need to be unbolted.............. never mind, no great shakes hey. Thanks for the tips though Dave

Many thanks for your thoughts. I think they confirmed mine really but was hoping for an easier option before having to unbolt the seat etc LOL. I'll keep you posted on the results of this one Regards Dave
