The VRM indicates the date of registration and not date of manufacture. I assume that it was never originally registered in UK and was exported to HK prior to registration in the UK. Therefore it's date of first registration in the UK will have been 1994 and hence given an M reg mark. If it had...

I had disco alloys on an 88 defender. Just lose the centre caps. Fronts were a bit tight on the hubs but some 3mm spacers sort that. I had drums on back.

I have a 90 with a 200TDI disco transplant and a 1990 RRC rear axle. Is the diff in the RRC axle different to what should be on the 90? If so how would this affect gearing? Engine now runs spot on but LR seems a bit slow on accelaration and top end for a TDI. Could this diff affect this...

If that's blocked would it affect breathing?? It's breathing really heavily.

My 200TDI is showing all the signs of blocked breathers. I've replaced the crankcase breather on the rocker cover with a brand new one and checked the hose to the sump and to the airbox for blockages but all clear. Are there any other breathers for me to check/replace?? Cheers.

I have just noticed that neither my reverse or rear fog light are working. My 90 has had a new rear cross member and looks like the wiring has been connected up incorrectly as when I put it in reverse I get the fog light warning lamp light up on the dash. Where are these connected and can...

Hi. After selling my last 90 a couple of months ago I decided to get another for a bit of offroading. Last week picked up a 182k 1985 90 with a disco 200tdi transplant. On the way home I thought it seemed slow, both acceleration and top end but put this down to forgetting what they were...

Thanks for that. Just got to find someone to weld it now. Any recommendations of where to buy the part?? Been looking about and all much of a muchness re price but don't wanna buy some dodgy fitting one.

Hi. Removed the sills off my 90 today to prepare for fitting rock sliders. Noticed the o/s rear tubular outrigger has a piece of box section in it and the fuel tank mountings have rusted away. Seems only option is to replace the outrigger. As it's now cold and dark I can't see too well. Has...

Hi. I am trying to find some parts for my brothers Land Rover 90. The trims/cappings that run around the top edge of the tub, under the side panels are beyond repair on his landy. Anybody know what these are called and where I might get replacements??? Thanks.

Hi. Are these still for sale. PM sent.

Hi. Does my 1988 90 2.5TD have a cam belt or chain?? Googled this but get conflicting answers. If belt what's recommended replacement intervals?? Thanks.

Hi. I put a set of discovery 1 alloys on my 90. Tyres are 235s as per the disco. Lots of threads on this subject: http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f7/alloys-2000-td5-64138.html?highlight=alloys http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f7/wheels-me-90-a-63619.html?highlight=alloys

I had hoped it would be that easy but it locates behind another belt so need room to get in to remove that one first.

Thanks for that. Winch has finaly arrived but still waiting for my bumper!! Where is the best place to mount the solenoid box? Mine is only supplied with short wires so will have to replace these. Just concerned that remote needs to plug in so needs to be somewhere accessible. Thanks.

Happy New Year Everyone! My alternator belt snapped the other day. Just had a look under the bonnet and doesn't seem to be much room to work on it. Anybody got any advice on most straightforward way to do this?? I tried to remove the fan cowling to get a clear run at it but once unbolted I...

Any ideas???

Hi. I am hoping that my new winch and bumper will arrive today.. Is there any 1 way of routing wires back to the battery that is preferential/easier?? Not really looked at it yet but just thought I'd draw on everyone else's experiences so I only do this once!! Thanks in advance.

Hi. I am looking to buy a few bits for my 1988 LR 90 2.5TD. Thought I'd try on here first in case anyone has anything kicking about: I am looking for a steering guard, diff guards and a snorkel. I have looked on ebay etc but was hoping to find something locally to save on postage (credit...

See pics. Any ideas why it seems so low? There is a dent in the top of the box where it has been catching on the bolt for the tow bar. See pic 3.
