if you get rid of the squeaks the rumbles and clunks become more noticeable, if you get rid of them you are just left with wind noise, and no one wants that!

None of those jobs require major tools or lifting the vehicle? I do all of those jobs on my driveway with each one (other than the screen) taking about half an hour. If you are travelling around the world and living in it surely that is even more...

If you're against replacing anything original with new parts then owning a Land Rover isn't for you

Another vote for atf over mtf for a lt77 from me. It’s cheaper and means you have the same fluid in pas and box so one less to carry.

I know they have a bad rep in military circles and the xzl’s are regarded as much better. It may also be worth checking the manufacture date of the spare. As just because it is good tread especially if it is what it came with from the army it may...

If it comes to it the drop arm I took the picture of on eBay was £18 and included a new ball joint. So if you are really struggling although relaxing a good part it will not break the bank.

My original TD5 drop arm had a notch in it and also the replacement has the notch in it.

That’s what I get for not paying enough attention to the people posting! If you don’t mind me asking what made you chose g90’s? I did t think they had a very good rep and thought they were crossly rather than radial? Sounds like you have panels...

If that is what yours is like then you should be able to lock the arm centred using that. below are some pics of the drop arm an box that I have out of the vehicle to illustrate how it work, from the pics it looks to be threaded so could use a bolt:

Are you sure you don't have this. It is just a cast slot on the back of the arm, the new ones for sale still have it (image below from an ebay ad for a new one). This allows you to put a correctly sized drill bit (do not ask me what size) into...

top of the pedal in the footwell footwell you have the circular spring. Each end of this sits in a little plastic cup, and there is a plastic insert onto the pedal where the spring sits in the slot: Link shows the little plastic parts I am...

Yes, 170NM (i've got the MOD document somewhere too).

From the depths of my memory I want to say it’s 170Nm but I will have a dig around my saved documents and check.

What style of clutch pedal do you have? If the later flat bar type the spring sits in plastic “bushings” that can squeak as they wear.

I agree with the above. A wheel nut is a wheel nut. I run wolf wheels on my series and td5 and am In The same position as @miktdish with the studs half a thread short and have no problems. I have not bothered swapping to the longer wheel studs...

If it has come through the skin, no, the alluminium has oxidised away into thin air. It's gone. It's passed us by and is on it's way to peace eternal, it's bereft of life and can best be described as ex-alluminium-num-num. Rub down the effected...

You're too late! I've done a deal myself for £7,350. And a big thanks to the guys who suggested it would polish up with some T-Cut because it does! The previous owner never, ever washed it so it got badly oxidized, but it scrubs-up nicely with...

This ^^ In a 90 you can carry people, things,, the dog. But only one of them at a time. If you need to carry more than one thing at a time you need a 110.

Ok, in general for 1 or 2 persons at the most, family has to be a 110.

I am going to say a few things. Stop looking at pretty, of course most sale ads like to show you pretty. Wanna buy this:D. Has manual AC but rust free. No scratches (to be seen;)). I may have said it, dont get sucked in by pretty, I guess at...

The rear heated window switch should be down by your knee between the steering wheel and the door. If you have a fog switch there then I would remove the little three switch panel and see if the wiring for the heated rear window is still behind...

That's what the sankey is for!

Exactly as above, a normal trailer does not have the novelty or fun factor, and again I have most of the parts to do it. i would need to source everything required for a normal trailer rather than just the hitch.

Because I will have a spare (replaced with galv) chassis and rear body. What else am I supposed to do with them? Plus there is a big “because I can” factor. That is the sort of thing I am looking to do although I think I will stop at the...

If you are concerned about the look then fit a spare wheel cover and it will look original. This is possibly what I would be looking to do anyway just from a security point of view. If you make it look like a spare wheel rather than storage no...

What are you concerned about by having a landrover for general uni life? I bought my 110 when I was 18 with the very first instalment of my student loan. Best investment I ever made in my opinion. I than had it as my only vehicle through...

Completely agree with the above. A 90 can carry people, things, or the dog. But can only do one at a time. And as mentioned any more than 4 people and it becomes cramped and uncomfortable. If you want to carry more than one thing form the list...

Just so you know, if you didn't already, they never made a 1989 300tdi. Post the advert and check it has a vin number relevant to the vehicle. It is highly likely it will have rust, you just have to find it.

At that age mileage is not relevant and you need to buy on conditions. Firstly of chassis and bulkhead, secondly on mechanicals. I have over 400k on my ‘89 110. But only a few body panels have actually done all of that mileage There is no...

I would also question this. having recently put a new britpart alternator on my 200tdi it came complete and ready to fit with the correct pulley already fitted.
