I don’t have ramps but have a big jack which I hope will be high enough. Problem is I have a gravel driveway with a path down the centre which makes whatever I do a real chew,have to make sure the boxes are above the path I suppose. Not bothered about tackling the job it’s the removal itself of...

I feared as much Oh well, best pull the box off then

On the floor or are you lucky enough to have access to a ramp??

I know it won’t,I meant if there’s air in the system causing things to not move properly. Il be doing it on the floor myself,done plenty on a ramp so will be an interesting experience on my back haha

noticed today my clutch slipping on my td5,Iv known about a slight weep at the master by the pedals for a couple of weeks and intend to change ASAP. Possibly linked? Or am I living in a cloud of false hopes and dreams that are about to be shattered like my friction plate?? Any help or advice is...

Cheers mate. Was done by a very good friend who I’ve known a lot of years so he looked after me on price very well. This week Iv been very busy,Iv fitted a new handbrake cable,extended my breathers,fixed my dull rear light,repaired some rot in the front inner wing and fitted a safari snorkel.Oh...

New wheels which I got refurbed and powdered in dark anthracite,complete with general grabbers all round Bought the wheels and tyres off eBay a few weeks back,well chuffed.

Yeah,the pipes are stupid money,most get the block machined to accept hydraulic hose fittings from a hydraulics shop instead of paying hundreds just for half the pipes from Land Rover. It is well worth having ACE in my opinion,my last td5 didn’t have it but this current one does and it’s much...

Thanks for tips re light.will give that a look over later. The washer does work if I connect the front one to it for purposes of testing,the pipe is clear,and does spray fine it’s iust my switch isn’t getting the power to the motor. Yes Iv had it filled to the neck aswell. Cheers

my td5 d2 has two faults which i would like to rectify.... A dim tail light on the passenger side.... And rear wash not washing,it wipes as it should but nothing from the pump The pump does work and I’ve tried a second hand switch

Bled the brakes after 2new rear pipes and all new flexis Just the rear bags to do tomorrow then it’s ready for test

Added 10 litres of waxoyl into/onto chassis/underbody.not a nice job to do on ya back but a job done. The finish line is nearing....

Regarding the gasket I used a light smear of rtv just to hold it in place while I lifted it into position.No dramas.

Yeah it looks a total ball ache lol Yeah I could measure it and probably make it myself if I put my mind to it but some things aren’t worth messing about for when you weight up time vs price! I think my spot weld drill bit will be busy! Thanks for the replies

My o/s b post body mount is rusting due to the mud flap being missing completely.I summise it has been missing a while as the mud flap bracket has almost rotted away.I plan on repairing this at some point in the near future,possibly in the spring when it’s a bit warmer. This looks a pain in the...

Fired it up after been sat for 4 and a half months after repairing the rear chassis,straight through exhaust fitted,fired up straight away which was pleasing.the list is getting smaller to do ready for mot

Yeah replace both

Did it on my last 99 10p- was tight enough not to come loose but not exactly tight,and on my latest 2001 15p-that was ok too. Replaced both for peace of mind,should be one of the first jobs you do upon purchase imo. I read on here one that came off at 160k,so it can and does happen!

Thanks for the advice,cheers

Glad I seen this,I am fitting new braided hoses to all calipers plus two new rear pipes so both methods will be needed I’m guessing?
