    Disco 1 door spring

    Right. So this cam would affect the central locking system? possibly by not operating the micro switch effectively?

    Disco 1 door spring

    On closer inspection after putting it back together I noticed the cam/collar on the back of the lock barrel was damaged with a section missing. Would this stop the lock from activating the actuator as I’m now not convinced the actuator is broken.

    Disco 1 door spring

    I’m trying to fix the dreaded lock spring on a 3 door disco 1. The configuration on all the videos seems different to mine. Can anyone tell me, to remove the lock mechanism do I need to raise the window runners. I think I’ve done the necessary linkages but cat get the lock out. ( maybe I missed...

    Hello! My first Land Rover.

    Hi Shippers. Yes a friend in Spain mentioned doing mods in Spain is not that simple, another good reason to leave it alone. As for the license I need to get onto that, thanks

    Hello! My first Land Rover.

    Thanks for all the encouraging and supportive comments, glad I joined! Interesting reading about the LT230, it sounds like that might be my first job but I’ll need a second opinion before I do anything rash. If an entire re-con unit is about £750 + labour what might it cost for repairing the one...

    Hello! My first Land Rover.

    Sounds like I need a review and plan of action. It’s had a good service history but I won’t get chance to have a look til Feb.

    Hello! My first Land Rover.

    Lucky with the rust, hardly any. Drive chain? Transmission ... not sure what I’m talking about here but there’s a bit of lag (almost a clunk) when accelerating or taking foot off the gas, and finding third gear is an art! Sounds sweet when running tho.

    That’s great advice, sound like I’ve got to do a bit of research. Appreciate the comments.

    Hello! My first Land Rover.

    Wise words Wise words for sure. I’m going to get someone who knows a bit to see if it’s something I should be worried about.

    Hello! My first Land Rover.

    Thanks for the encouraging words. It is a pretty tidy motor and I’ll try and resist any unnecessary mods but I’d be interested in what you know about AT tyres, It’s just the excitement of having an amazing vehicle. Cheers for the comment

    Hello! My first Land Rover.

    Hi all. Very new to this but excited about acquiring a 1992 Disco 1 with 200k on the clock. Yes I know but you have to start somewhere and I like the fact that being a bit older I won’t be so scared of tinkering. I live near Leicester but the Disco was gifted to me and my buddy by a gentleman...
