265/75x16 insa turbo 1/2 shaft snappers.:D

Ok the story is my good old RRC has a 200tdi fitted and is way underpowered when setting off. When I got it, it had the 200tdi with the lt77 and lt230 transfer with 1.222 ratio and stock 3.54diffs with 265/75 16 insa tyres, so i was thinking as the motor sounds sweet and seems to pull well when...

I think Lpg will be a safe bet for a while because with petrol and diesel they keep banging on about green issues and saying its to make people use their cars less while they put more tax on, Im sure its nothing to do with getting even more revenue off motorists :mad:but lpg is one of the best...

I went there with my last RRC about 12 years ago, It was a mint 88 Vouge I had just put some BFG Muds on and was bashing it about all over the site. The girlfriend(now wife) wasn't to pleased when i took it back covered in crap and both rear bumper caps and the front air dam hanging off.:D

I love the V8's but with the price of fuel and trying to make the electrics water tight I would have to go with the 200tdi or 300tdi.

Why worry its only about £6.40 a gallon:eek: A good service should help.:welcome2:

Welcome. Take a look in the off roading and green laning section, there is always someone not far away.

The wife had to use my RRC to take our lad to school today and after about 20mins I get a text from her saying that she had dropped him off but didn't want to drive it back as it had scared her ****less.:D so I called her to find out what was wrong and she told me that it just won't go in a...

Made a new snorkel and fitted it today, because the one that was on it looked ****e. Got the safari top off ebay for £26 and I had the rest lying around so I think it looks good for the cost, but it did take me about 6 hours.All I need to do now is get a new piece off tube to connect it to the...

I had a GMC Jimmy 4x4 a few years back with the 6.2D and it could pull a house down, I always thought it performed a lot better than the bhp and torque numbers that they kick out would have you believe . Mine had straight through pipes on and sounded amazing.

Well I went back to paddock again today to take back the CV's that I got for the old axle and change them for Disco CV's to fit my new axle, and once again they changed the parts for me with no fuss at all even though I must have been back about 3 or 4 times swapping things to try and get this...

Well iv'e sorted my problem, there was a 300tdi Disco 24 spline axle on ebay close to me for £85 so i took a chance and pressed the buy it now. When I went to collect it he had it on the front ready, WTF iv'e never seen an axle as rusty as this one in my life:doh: so I throw it in the trailer...

The fuel in mine seems to be lasting ages, but that could be down to it always being sat in my garage in bit's.:D

My old man has a 4.2TD land cruiser that has a intermittent power drain and he got fed up with getting stranded, so he bought a Sealy road start RS103 with 3200 peak amps and that starts his 4.2TD when the weather is freezing and his twin batteries are that dead his interior lights dont come on...

The ford you crossed at the end of the video is just up the road from me, I blast through it a few times after I've been playing to clean the underside of my RRC. That is when it's not sat on axle stands in my garage. People say Land Rover are a love hate thing, but at the moment I would have to...

Here are the pics so you can see what im on about.

Hi sorry for my bad explanation, its a 89, Zen your right the shaft hits the swivel to early. yes mine has the bronze bush in the stub axle that the cv seats in but the one I am on about is a bronze collar on the drive shaft itself, and when you fit the shaft into the diff this collar seats in a...

Hi all just thought i would vent a bit instead of burning my RRC. This tale begins with my front 10 spline diff giving up, so i got it in my garage and pulled the diff out and dropped it off to be rebuilt. While i was waiting for the diff i thought sod it and decided to get new cv's and swivel's...
