    200tdi stalling issue

    They can stall with a bit of crap wedged into the pick up pipe out the tank. But also feels like there is a restriction/lack of fuel. Ours was like a match size so let a bit of fuel past but could not hold full revs. Yep check valves. It’s 1 less thing it can be & rule it out

    Bankzs 110 CSW XS Build

    Another thought… There used to be free wheeling hubs that lock automatically as the wheel/drive shaft turns. This sounded like witchcraft Unsure how far the shaft has to turn before locking/releasing. Also may mean the ARB is always disconnected till it’s too late. Think they were made...

    Bankzs 110 CSW XS Build

    That’s a good idea. So is that a standard drive shaft? Now for some ideas… If only they made small air locker Diffs,use the centre diff no crown wheel. 2drive shaft to suit. Or air/electric actuator onto the free wheel hub end and slot into the twist part. Them hubs used to seize up...

    Centre seat seatbelt

    Centre seats in a 90 are normally lap belts. Think series were the same. Could you put the retractor on the other side of the tub bulkhead? May be in the way if you have a spare wheel.

Look for an engine number & see if it matches the log book… Now if you have all this(may be a mad idea) but get in touch with dvla for an inspection. As it’s...
