Yeah - I use fabsil too - works well and quite cheap

Photo of oil bath filter in situ if this helps...?

... Getting bored with this tit fer tat thread now:boom:

Good point and well made Freelaner - must of thought I was in another time and place.... We've not heard back from 'im yet though????????????

in the interests of fairness and balance...He has now posted a grand total of 3 times!!! :D

Generally a few on flea bay at any given time - see link below for example landrover series 2/3 oil bath air filter | eBay

TBH I see both sides and don't much care about tax free or not... only eal issue to me is whether it would invalidate insurance in the event of an accident and subsequent inspection by the assessor - Buyer beware, and satisfy yourself that what you are buying is what it purports to be.... trust...

I got a 1975 Series 3 SWB Diesel and the vin plate is on the bulkhead imediately in front of the red High/Low range selector - right next to the High/low range instruction plate (see attached photo)

For what it's worth... I run a bog standard 2.25 diesel on 7.50 tyres and have an overdrive fitted which seems to work really well and I live on the Mendips. Extra gearing from the tyres and overdrive work really well on the flat and gentle slopes... first gear really only for overcomming the...

Forget the brakes...I'm just mesmerised by Freelaner's GIF animation!!!!

Pretty sure they do... Paddocks actually do a lot of stuff, or can at least get hold of a lot of stuff that they don't advertise - best bet is to ring them and ask?

Sorry to hijack this thread, but I have been thinking about using electrolysis to clean up some landy bits and have been looking for some graphite bars/rods/plates to avoid the scum produced using sacrificial steel/iron.... anybody know where I can buy such stuff (preferably cheaply)?

Lovin the pics....keep em coming :clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2::clap2:

Thanks

Thanks Guys... Timken were my original choice, but Dunsfold did not have a full set in stock so offered me NTN. so really wondered if anybody had any experience of NTN bearings and how they stacked up against Timken as I have not come across them before?

Hi, Looking to fit a full set of inner and outer wheel bearings to my 1975 S3 88" Diesel as part of a full axle refurb.... Dunsfold and others seem to offer Timken and NTN bearings as OEM part replacements, but I was wondering which ones were best (given that they appear to be very similar in...

Good to have you back - why not go the full hog and put a Prius engine in it????

Not an expert in this field at all...but I have heard that pressure from fully inflated tyres is too high for easy-bleeds and should ideally use about 5psi? As I said I'm no expert on brakes as I prefer to get them done by a professional mate of mine who uses a vacumn kit to draw fluid through...

Got mine from Paddocks and they had a profile to help with providing a seal... bit of a bitch to fit initially, but dropped them into a bucket of boiling water inside a polythene bag to keep them dry, then bedded them on with RTV silicone and closed the vents and wedge them from the outside with...

Dunsfold Land Rover (Speak to Nick) Dunsfold DLR They sell Genuine parts where available, but if not are very fussy about what OEM parts they provide and only sell pattern parts that they would be happy using on their own collection (if nothing else is available), but if they are crap, then...
