hi any ideas on how much i should pay for a 3.5 v8 98,000 miles, auto box, transfer box, engine wiring ( ecu ) and a axles although i dont need the axles but i think there part off the deal if anyone else needs some
yeah the idea off the v8 interests me but i still cant get over the idea that they are not so good with water. diesels are so easy to get water proof , what are your opinions as i keep getting warned away but cant let go off the idea. also do you now the engine's history and how many miles etc and does it come with alternator starter and so on
cheers tim
are the KAM electric diff locks and axle kits any good. they offer a full kit, diff locks, drive shafts,heavy duty shaft ends etc for around £650 never really heard off KAM so not sure of quality
any advise appreciated
not to sure about v8,s but might be valve stem oil seals letting a bit off oil in while it sits and then burns off straight away when running . i had the same on an rs turbo an oil seals curred that
i have looked at a hidden hinge version and it could be done but i think you would have to weld on the hinge mounts and the mount that holds the bonnet lifting springs secure. cant be sure as i dont have an exposed hinge car with the scuttle off
hi i have put a 1.5" body lift on my range rover, not to bad to do but i expect you will need new mounting bolts for the extra length. i found it best to leave the rear mounts on jack up yhe front and put the spacers in then do the rear and put the others in after. i also loosened of the steering shaft just incase and there are 2 more mounts not to forget positioned ruffly under the rear seats. suspension wise a bit more envolved but not bad either
good luck
hi
how easy is it to put a 300tdi engine and auto box into a range rover currently using an old mazda diesel and manual box? and how tempermental are v8's as i have never owned one but would like to.
thanks tim
ok thanks do you think that the engine could be an issue it currently has a non-turbo 3l mazda engine but im not sure of the output figures it seems to run fine just a bit smokey on start up
hi i have fitted 35" mudzillas to my range rover and dont seem to have much power is there an easy fix or is different differential gearing the only option iwould be glad off any advice
