  1. Oh yes.... Some very motivating people here !!
  2. Wytze, you've obviously not met me... Glad Drew got me going - now I need to keep momentum..
  3. Drastic but effective... Last resort option - worth remembering.... I have air tools....
  4. Thanks. Will need to make a bracket or something to keep the thing from turning when applying mega forces to undo that @%$@$%@$ nut...
  5. Right..... We had a epic weekend as Mr. Drew came, kicked me in the a.. and we got going and had a running 200 Tdi in the Series this Sundaymorning... A few things have been proven to work, a few things have been proven otherwise... Need to get some standard rubber LR water hoses, some pipe and the intercooler / waterworks are fine. 100 % of the electrics need to be done - LED's will be fitted - and kept as simple as possible Also, the drum handbrake is to be replaced with the X- type one but so far the nut on the output shaft will not come undone. Is it a turn clockwise to undo one ?
  6. Update - as if anybody really cares.... Due to Ivo's forced move from his workshop, the Scottish Aviation trailer will stay in France until further notice... This means Her Ladyship is not impressed... However, digging a 20 mtr round pen for her to use with the horses sees me sleeping inside for the time being...
  7. The 88" has been with me since '78 and has been used for anything and has been everywhere.. Love them
  8. Once the Series Hybrid is up & running again, I need to come your way.... For some reason, the people LTDS seem to be not too happy with my converisons...
  9. Any replacement bulkheads, no matter how good looking, will find places that need work before fitting - you may want to consider galvanizing the thing as they are a @#$@# to take out and refit... By the sound of it, yours is repairable. Bon Courage !
  10. We had a 110 CSW with Mazda 3.5 Tdi & ZF Autobox and ran it everywhere. Standard 4 discs and never any problems. TBH, bit of a waste. Quality discs & pads should be more than up to the job.
  11. My Lady reads here, too, and that means if I'd write what we've spent on projects, I'll be lucky to sleep outside...
  12. Hmm.... Weird... No rod => No clutch operation
  13. Don't think so. Will be taken over in the "new" legislation most likely
  14. Goede Morgen Dirk ! Have a look around - recently a post on the same problem came by. With some creative solutions. Bush and / or splines most likely stuck on. Remove starter motor and give it a constant tensions and with hammer and wooden block bash away...
  15. They are serious money pits... You've proven to be a wise man !
  16. Mr. Bandog has a point... Both the 200 & 300 start generating heat within 2-3 minutes from start up..
  17. Have a look here : http://www.red90.ca/rovers/Heater/heater.html or here : and I can confirm, it works very, very well.....
  18. It really depends on how original etc. you want to keep the vehicle - and budget.. We have Canadian heaters in the vehicles and they make for hot vehicles, even in minus 20 C. However, it does mean serious mods to the bulkhead or some very, very clever building. The Webasto is a fine route - very efficient and direct heat from the start.
  19. LR has done weird & wonderful "one offs" and small batches of many things.... I'd be surprised if the VIN no will come up with much special... Pics could tell something...
