    disco axle onto a defender

    Hi all, im thinking of fitting a disco 1 rear axle onto my 200 defender. Can anyone tell me if It's a straight swop or is there any mods needed? Also want to fit the transfer box too, to make it a little better on road, is this a sensible mod? Does anyone know of any links to previous threads...

    300tdi not starting

    I had a similar problem with mine. I was getting fuel at the injectors but it turned out not enough fuel. and it was the sender in the tank that wasn't letting enough through. I'd check the fuel sedimentor first though it is located on the inner side of the chassis rail just behind the rear...
