Hi There, I am sorry to say I am going to have to sell my 90 300TDi. I bought it in April 2010 to replace my old 2.5NAD 90 Pick Up. Quite simply, I cannot afford to have a "fun" vehicle as well as our family car. It has done just over 125000 miles and I have every MOT to prove the mileage...

Hi, I've got my truck advertised and have received an enquiry from a member called Danie Coby (forum name Danie). This is the body of the text after he had already asked me to send some more details, which I kept vague as I was a little unsure of the validity of the enquiry. "Thanks for the...

How do! I'm just about to re-join the wonderful world of Land Rover ownership (300Tdi 90 County SW) and was wondering if anyone has any insurers they have found particularly cheap or offered excellent service? I've been running a company car and cancelled my last insurance before I got my...

I've got a NAD as well that likes to "leave its mark" as well. Other than the breather on the oil filler cap, are there any other breathers that can be cleaned out?

Does anyone know if any of the other BL group cars had the same steering column/spline fit?

if you do a search on e-bay for land rover steering wheel there is a pukka land rover wheel puller on there. Just noticed it tonight while I was searching for a new wheel for my truck.

Just want to say a big thanks to all that offered advice. The solenoid was burnt out. It fires beautifully now that it has been replaced. I'd also like to say a big thank you to Sungold Auto Electrics in Newcastle who did the repair. Having paid for the drive on the starter, they waived the...

Have a look on Military Vehicles Jeeps Tanks Militaria, all ex Military equipment - there's loads of ex-mod stuff and suppliers on there. One point about the wolf style light guards - keep the hinges oiled! Also best get them powder coated as they rust very easily.

Every home should have a centurion tank on the drive!

Well, this morning I've taken off all of the earth straps, cleaned them thoroughly, cleaned the mating surfaces and where possible fitted new nuts and bolts. Guess what? Nothing! I took the starter to the auto electrician, along aith all of the earth straps and the positive lead from the...

Hi, Yeah, I even tried earthing the car to our Honda!

Mark Evans made some chequer door cards in his how "4x4 is Born". Think they were SIII doors. It would be a bit too bling form my scabby old truck.

Well, my intermittent starting problem has got much worse. It satrted with every now and then when the key was turned you heard a loud click - the solenoid firing. Turn the key a few times and it would fire up. Then the other day, it would not fire at all. I've had the starter motor to a...

When you do the A-frame ball joint is it good practice to do the bushes on the arms to the body as well? The reason I ask is the bolts are very badly corroded. Think the only way I'll get them off is to cut them or try to split the nuts. 22 years of salt and mud has not done the old girl to...

would the a-frame clunk happen when pulling away only or when going through the gears as well? Mine does it in all gears, including low range.

Had a further bit play with the diffs today. I can turn all of them 1/8 of a turn in both directions by hand. I think this may be the cause of the clunk when I let the clutch up. If I rotated the rear diff quickly by hand, it made the same noise that I hear, but not as loud. Anyone got any...

Some good stuff on that website. I'm taking the starter to Sungold auto electrics in Newcastle tomorrow. THey say they can either repair the starter or recon the whole unit. Fingers crossed!

Anyone know if the MGB steering column was the same spline fit as the LR 90? I was thinking of getting a moto lita wheel for the truck - slightly smaller than standard to give me a bit more legroom.:confused:

When I worked as a LR salesman, I did a few days at the factory where we learned a fair bit about the Puma Defender. We were told that the bulkhead was hugely modified to accommodate the new dashboard. Obviously the vents have gone, but apparantly a great deal of the structure was altered as...
