MAY UPDATE, NEW DEFENDER
Well, the new Defender is still performing without issues.
Mileage is now 12,000. l still find myself looking at late model Puma 110XS for sale while sat in the bath, but at the moment l am sticking with the new one...
Just natural restrictions… trees & expensive roof tents. Went round the corner 100yards in & found water ditch & low stuff. Only single track.
Started tidworth tank crossing,up past back gates & looped over ranges(flags down) using old malbough...
many thanks, that I did not know, hence the request for a wiring diagram, I had assumed that as the tail lights were working the switch etc was good and it would be a wiring fault somewhere else.
That is my plan for the next step but may need to...
I know at least one group did as I have their Landrover:p! ( A blue LWB Safari 2 & a quarter petrol fitted with a Brownchurch roofrack.) Yes, ta for your replies, I will get on the 'case' one day. (Don't use fb) Just wondered if anyone on the...
I have made a spacer, cut from 3mm steel sheet with a metal cutting jigsaw. It took a couple of hours to grind it evenly from 3mm up to 1mm. It should sandwich fairly flat. I think I'll seal it both sides with rtv silicone and screw the stub axle...
IT’s looking great. I’m just finishing my S3 rebuild. A 1971 now with a 200tdi and a galv chassis and bulkhead. It’s taken me a year of working evenings and weekends. Electrics took ages because I added several relays to reduce the load on all...
I hope so!
All i have done to my engine is turned the fuel pin 2/3. I want to do one thing at a time and learn the differences as i go.

There is a byway which goes through a farm and leads upto Stonehenge, the woman there is a proper loon.
She blocked our way once and stood there swearing and waving a big stick. She even admitted we were doing nothing wrong, eventually giving up...
I have often used the website to plan greenlane trips, it's handy to find the locations.
Google Street View is also good, often a video can be found on YouTube also.
Let us know how you get on.
On the exhaust manifold - in the global south anyway - some have coated the inside of the manifold with a "powder coating"
the stated objective of these peeps is that you want the temp delta between before the turbo to after the turbo to be as...
Replaced a wiper,had already purchased a spare.
Got some more engine oil for spare
Drove it & had plenty of enjoyment. .
Was given full wheel bearing kit,5lts gearbox oil
Went to use the low ratio and it isn’t engaging easily so I’ll have to free it up. It’s been a while since I last used low ratio so check yours regularly… the transfer box knob came off in my hand so I need a new knob too!🤭🤔
So meet up with another friend off the ferry
And overnight down near Poole.
The D4 decided not to continue so it was just me and the Hilux.
So as the next stop for us both were near my home and flags again down we decided a trip round again. No...
