    Seats or no seats??

    I'm in the process of converting my 110 truck cab into a hardtop van, are there any regulations/ rules involved with putting seats in the back?? I'm hoping to remove the bulkhead behind the front seats and put a removal bar inplace to allow access into the back and then put two forward facing...

    Weird Problem with m'landy

    Thanks for the info guys, looks like a clean of the carb is the first step. There is an inline filter next to the electric fuel pump so i'll change that aswell.

    Door handles - when did they change?

    can you upgrade a lever type door, like fitted to my 84' 110, with any age push button door? I seem to remember someone mentioning that it had to be an early push button door to fit??

    Snow Tyres...

    I've got Fateo Range Runners 7.5 R16 112/110 on my 110 truck cab, grip in the snow is phenomenal!! Although that is comparing it against a Shogun with big fat 265's which tended to "float" when the going got tough! The Fateo's were on the 110 when I got her, apparently they are from...

    Air Filter probs on a 2.25 110

    Sorry to invade the series forum with a 110 question but I thought you guys would be better qualified to answer it as its got a 2.25 petrol engine. :D It started running very erratically with major misfiring and loss of power after a few miles. I let it cool down for a few hours and it drove...

    Van conversion

    Thanks for all the info guys! I can see the pros and cons for truck cabs now. It is actually quite handy as a truck cab for moving logs and hay around in the back but unfortunately there is no space in the cab for tools, kids and dogs, so its got to go! Will - I would be grateful if you could...

    Van conversion

    Thanks for the info guys really helpful, POS out of interest why are there lots of people wanting to convert to truck cabs? I would have thought they wouldnt be as versatile as a hard top. I noticed they seemed to be going for big money on ebay.

    Hi Just joined forum, does anyone have a roof and side panels for a 1984 110? I want to change it from a truck cab to a hard top. I've searched the For sale forum but cant find anything. Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.
