I reckon you could tighten it up until it snaps if you really can't undo it.

Having a look at trail wise and found it a bit helpful. Some lanes I had looked on the OS map have TRO/VRO or advise to only go 1 way. Yes some of this info goes back a few years,so a sites is only as good as the info supplied Still route...

According to the 12volt Planet wiring calculator you would need 6mm for 1 metre length.

A friend spent a fair amount on some new wheels for his Mustang, while the insurance company were happy to cover them they would only payout for original spec wheels. In reality the original spec wheels would probably be more expensive with...

Yes one would think so. For specialist insurance they are not very good. I enquired about classic insurance, they would only value up to £5k, really! Also asked what brand and style tires I had.. While the chap was helpful and knowledgeable about...

You cannot help insurance companies at all. In a commonsense world the premium should go down as it could save a claim costing a couple of grand if the cat can't be stolen. It gets on my nerves when factory fitted mudflaps are counted as a mod...

Used to watch Ice Road Truckers years ago when it was more like a documentary than a made up "reality show".

I have found that, in general, Corteco seals are pretty good and a reasonable price. I almost always buy two seals for any seal I may be changing, bound to need it in the future sometime.

The one I got looked pretty good quality, thankfully not britpart or the like. If it started leaking from the old one and now this new one then I'm inclined to believe there's something else going on but I'll double check the banjo bolt. I use a...

Funny how "I might as well do this at the same time" leads to multi-day work projects. After finishing the installation of the Roamer OD, I thought I'd add some heat/sound insulation to the bottom of the centre seat panel, which lead to doing the...

Maybe bad luck with regards to the seal. I fitted a Genuine flange and seal a couple of years ago, leaking again. Also had a seal fail in no time and others just fine. Good job the seals are cheap enough, try another one. What do you use to knock...

Sounds like a right drama driving over there, not really something we have to consider here. Do you also need fuel additives during the cold weather?

Knackered flange, damaged the new seal?

It was 6k all in.

Sure thing, here a few from his social media, im pretty sure he will do whatever spec you like, high end like these, or a simple chassis swap replacing just the parts that need doing.

Thanks, will give that a try when I get a chance.

Thanks, some photos would be nice if you don't mind. I should mention I am in the preliminary planing stages at the moment. With prices of vehicles going down it might never be worth doing.

Thanks but a little bit to further than what I might consider to be 'within reason'.

Looks very good.

I’m with Admiral too. They were the best price around, didn’t mind the minor modifications either.

The heater motor seems to be giving up, seizing up, bearing running dry, rust or whatever. Are they serviceable in some way? 1989 Ninety if it makes much difference.

Can't remember, any large bolt on the battery side of the engine, engine mount maybe?

We had the main earth to the block and the headlamp panel and another from starter to chassis leg, might even had one from the gearbox somewhere.

Indeed, it seems more like an adventure when you drive a Defender.

Cornwall I think. I know it's quite interesting to compare prices but rather pointless at the same time as so many variations between people circumstances. For us Lancaster were also not competitive. Adrian Flux, in the past, we're actually one...

Strange, mine went down last year. Try Admiral as I have a Td5 90, my son has a Ninety (200tdi) and a D2 no problems or restrictions. I found the specialists more expensive or restrictions, in a garage ( yeah right). A-plan said we are in a high...

You are actually getting refused insurance, for what reason?
