    Hydraulic winch pump

    I'm sure its not recommended at all, but I did briefly one many years ago that was run off the power steering pump, the next time I saw it, it had two steering pumps, one for winch, one for steering. Might be worth looking at commercial breakers, transit tipper, that sort of thing although many...

    3.9 efi drinking water!!

    I would normally say liner on a 3.9, but I have usually managed to cure them with Kseal. A leak between water & exaaust however never seems to be fixable with that stuff. Soon as water pushes sealant into the crack, combustion pressure forces it back out. I did run my Volvo V70 in such a state...

    Towing troubles

    Going to sound stupid, but do you still have standard tyres under the 2" lift? If you have gone for say 235/85 tyres that will be like making every gear ratio around 11% higher unless there are compensations made in transfer box or axles. I think however others may be right, just sell it...

    What 4X4 for towing a horse box.....

    Towing wise I have used an old 4.0 cherokee sport (the smaller jeep, but was still rated for 3500kg towing) on LPG. With the auto and cruise control it was a dream, and running on gas not excessively expensive, hills no problem, and even on road tyres I rarely had to put it into 4x4, never mind...
