That's what i was saying - they are cheaper now - i was talking 8 years ago ish. LR wanted £1400 to sort a sales rangie I had that just sat on it's backside one day. Repaired ourselves - £300, new airbag, peice of pipework and a bleed valve! The extra £40 was for then to activate the system -...

Think he is pulling a fast one, as he knows how expensive they are to repair! You can get after market ones fairly reasonably priced, but what they are like who knows? Having done a range rover years ago when it was quite new, the suspension was fairly easy to fix, cost around £300 (LR Dealer...

First things to pick up, which you can start at the local farmers or country stores, is a couple of good sized d shackles and some decent rocovery points on the truck to attatch them to, a shovel and a bow saw - only needs to be a cheap one, you won't be using it every day! See a fisherman for a...

Probably be wise to get some, try main dealer or a fasteners specialist. Main dealer will tell you the size. My advice would be to do the UJ as well, as if the donut is gone, probably caused by a seized UJ. Do it right, do it once! lol! That's my motto!

Sorry! Should have said - the buckshots. They are excellent wearing tyre, and grip well on all surfaces. Tend to crack between the tread rather than wear out, mine were on my daily runner and laner. Took the abuse, travelling all over the country and were still in great nick when i sold it 3...

Excellent all rounder are Maxxis - last as well as BFG and fraction of the price, MT grips well on road as well as off, and runs quiet. Priced at around £50 each. Had a set on my old patrol - didn't think twice about slinging it around corners, never lost it off road, and they never seemed to...

You can use any mastic sikaflex type sealant in a tube, or use dum dum, which is probably what is there. The caravan non drying sealer is good stuff!

Depends on price really! I dont think you could accurately tell, but chances are it probably is going or gone! Thats the best way to look at it. prepare for worst and see what happens! If its more than 2900 message me!

They are standard mounts nothing special! Yes it is a rip off just like everything on the 1.8 k series is four times the price of the rover k series! Same engine!! I got my other halfs mounting rubbers from a local accessory shop £2.53 for 2!!

Dont ever ever evr use a spray starting aid!! Purely because its a known fact in the trade that you start using that, it will always need it!! I would say compression test it etc, but the TD4 absolutely eats fuel pumps! They are easy to fit, takes about ten minutes at the most......just costs...

I know i had that one problem recently ( which turned out to be a rotor arm! lol!) but the other halfs' freeloader has had absolutely no problems at all!! We knew the person who owned it before, took it all over france...eventually moving there hence they sold it...and it has never missed a...

After all that it was the bleeding rotor arm! :rolleyes: Some things you just have to walk away from and return with a fresh mind!:)

Have this odd problem with the other halfs freeloader.....i'm not a freeloader person so am a little stumped!! Basically...i need a freeloader geek!!:D All started when she left it for a week. Before then it was fine and totally problem free for years! It wont start at all, spark etc are...
