That’s a water trap area. Re plate & put a big drain hole in

Now imagine driving down the road, that jet that went over the roof will probally hit the screen. Try before lowering. Adjuster the jets are either pin in hole & move or small screwdriver in slot and rotate

Press harder..;) You have the biggest standard brakes on the rear. You should have the same size on the front some people change the pads for a different compound Have noticed the rear anti roll bar is missing on the axle.

Another thought. Any cutting of the back body should be done at the front. This way the all the body fixings stay the same at the rear and the wheel arch is in the correct place. If you measure 10 inches this would give you workable room for the extension. Or if you can find 1 this...

Used to be if you had a 110 5 door these were v8. The Hicap was a work horse abused by farmers & used the hard engine 2.5. These were reliable. Change the transfer box they went quicker

Would be easier to take the rear body off . These bodies are double skinned and take a lot of work to shorten these. So you will need to remove rear body,roof,rear widow,bulkhead. Then move the bulkhead back to your required size. Extend the bulkhead back to the doors, Cut the rear of the roof...

Try a bolt out of a plug(wall)socket. They are a bit smaller

Slide a split hose pipe down the ladder behind the drop plate. Takes all the rattles away. Iv never worried about the DB system. Towed everything with this set up and always single pin. I like I can change from pin to nato hitch

Arb make have smaller pins but are double holes.make sure you get compatible parts Just wondering why do you want 2 pins?

Could that cable/conector have touched anything to make an earth? & put the light on

3.5v8 . It’s easy to go slightly bigger internals and on the outside you can’t tell the difference. Plus it’s a landrover and part should be available

Of course let them attach the straps to the car. No way am I bending down and getting muddy for someone else’s stupidity

So is you V8 on carbs then? Early disco were injected That choke cable is an addition

Did take it in & wash it. Put on radiator to dry & re oil. Will be good for another 12 months.

Look at a 3 point harness. Would be easier to fit

Mrs been driving motor this week and says headlight crap. Light Grill off and trace earth back. Remove wheel arch and find earth cable broke. Now this was from main loom so unsure why side light/indicators still worked. Lights now fixed Now onto horn. Remove front grill and once again find...

After some info… So on my travels I saw a disco 3 or 4 with roof tent etc. the rear window was removed and a hatch put in its place. Looked like a made part. Any 1 know who makes these? (Unable to take photos was driving) Thanks

Spoke to a friend who built hi cap tubs and says you will struggle to rebuild these. Twin skinned and has to be built in jigs. (These were built/painted in the rough at Peugeot site before been shipped to landrover)

Just cover the wheels(truck arches) and all will be good.

Nope.. there are 2 rams on it. I thought it would be heavy but it lifts up on its own. Think the struts are twice as powerful of the classic RR tail gate I would worry more about changing them tyres
