Very inspiring this - please keep it coming !!

Nice

We kill the vehicles with a master switch - the approved one - and have a seperate battery for the Webasto, radio etc. No risk for running out of starting power. Charging is arrange through a UYBI control box.

Oh please do ! Thank you very much. Pls. let me know what sort of money you're after. ... perhaps some French wine

If you are not urgently needing to get rid of those, I'd be very interested in those 5 rims (michelins are welcome) to be used under the Hybrid. I seem to be doing a UK Raid in March / April to collect quite a few bits and you are not too far off the route.

Goede Avond, Back from a trip playing with trains - the real biggish ones - and too tired to go to bed, I'll try to post some pics of said roof conversion. In Holland, this conversion is now it seems killed by the taxman so it seems they stopped selling them. We're now in stage IIA of the conversion of the 110. Stage III will be an engine swop once I have time... Hope these help some

Nice !

" I am back working on the garden railway" Lucky You !! I'm off this Wednesday to play with the real ones again in Lithuania.. Wish I had time to work on the Land Rovers.....

I'm going to print this one and read a few times. On the to do list is swopping a 300 Tdi as it is not just smoking - it is tryinf to cause a black out in the Allier....

As I said on LRA, the owners of the titles are in it for the short term money and have no real connection to the marque. Goes for most magazines that specialize in someting... Gone are the days that companies seem to be in it for the long term.... Oh well, progress I guess..

De club in Harderwijk leverde dit als kit. There was a supplier in Harderwijk, NL, that sold this kit. Due to tax reasons, camper conversions in Holland are very difficult..

I will make pics etc. when we start - planning is early January...

We have just complete stage 2 of the "create standing hight in a 110" project : fitted the Roll Cage. So what we do is a bit different from what this topic is about.. In Holland, several options are on the market and this has to be one of the lowest profile ones Most conversions raise the roof by some 80 mm This one bij about 10 mm For the Series conversions a very workable solution - basically 4 pieces of a 6-10 mm.thick steel strip, welded on the corners and bent over the rear door to keep everything in place when the roof was up. Very simple, very workable and not too expensive. The fabric is usually HD tent fabric. For those interested, I have more pics of this conversion and others... As I said, we are doing it a bit different as we had to have a full external roll cage and that is a bit complicated to mix with a full pop up roof...

Right, as the Hybrid's build is very slowely progressing, another project just arrived. I need to fit a 300 Ex. disco with ZF mounted to it into a 110 with a to be rebuild 300 Tdi. Obviously, the flywheel needs to be replaced as the 110 is a manual one. The injector pump on the "new to me engine" is drive by wire. Am I right in thinking I can swop the top bit on the injector pump to make it drive by cable ?

Thanks !

Hi Mike, " The roller he refers to is the aircon tensioner for a 200tdi fits over the pump pulley hole similar to above. " Sorry, you've lost me there..

Thank You guys !!

Thank You !! It seems, hopefully, we can reposition the alternator as that would be easier..

Mr. Lewis came back to me and as I can't weld, I'm more than happy to buy his bracket to mount the alternator. His seems to be good quality and well thought out. However, I will need a "roller" to reroute the fan belt a bit. This is a very nice & simple solution that seems to work - however, I need that roller that moves the fan belt out of the way. Any idea where to get it ?

Yes, I have spoken to them this morning and they think they can help but I was wondering if here somebody has had the same situation and found an interesting solution.

As I'm having some issues with the lack of space for the turbo intake in the Hybrid, I was wondering, looking at the 300 Tdi turbo set up, if a 300 Tdi exhaust manifold would fit a 200 Tdi engine ? They are both ex Discovery.. By the looks of it, the 300 Turbo position would solve a few problems.

I tried to find some solid answers but nothing yet, so I hope somebody here can help me.. I'd like to either reposition the the standard alternator from way low - and in the way of much - to where the optional aircon pump is fitted. I know it is possible - but what is needed ? Please let me have your thoughts !

Thanks ! 3-phase is for me no problem. We have quite a few 3-phase tools

What sort of money do they roughly fetch ?

Yes - there should be quite a bit of paperwork to base this story on - and that should state the VIN number. What does the engine # relate to ? Also, you mention " a gearbox oil temperature warning light ". Can you please show a picture of that ?
