    HG Failure at 150k. Worth fixing?

    Best bet is search the workshop manual or there is the v8 book by I believe les Hamilton( I think that's his name but book can be expensive as its no longer published) workshop manual will give you all the details you need along with a thread on here incase you get stuck with anything.

    Help with lt77s disco to defender conversion

    Fanatic what I've done is fit the whole gear change mech from a defender lt77 and fitted it on to a disco v8 lt77s so it all should be in same place as it is now on the 230 and then relocate engine mounts for v8 if you get me, it should all line up shouldn't it or am I missing something:confused:
