For cleaning out the gutters I used lots of laborious elbow grease with various scrapers and picks. Then Covered the whole lot with tiger seal.

Unless your coolant is brand new treat it is a service/partial change, accept the loss and replace with new.

Similar to the above, complete vehicle projects do not fetch a lot of money. And even as a new chassis it will Be outside the manufacturer warranty now and as not purchased form them will have no come back. So likely to loose a lot of money. I would say it is worth no more than 50% of new price...

One thing I found with the sets I have bought is people who advertise them as “HD” or “130” rims tend to be asking half the price of people who advertise them as “wolf” or “military” despite the fact they are the same thing. And they were fitted as standard to 130 vehicles and a lot of the...

That is the issue I have! Dont think the wife would bring the kids home to sleep in them if I turned up back with them…

If it is just the twin step that bolts to the towball then all you need is some m16 bolts of a suitable length (I’m sure someone will Be along with the imperial version to be period correct). I would guess about 75-100mm long but get your tape measure out. They are nothing special and are just...

Because they end up being bolted in you will find lots of dog guards second hand don’t come with them. I am looking for a station wagon dog guard currently and so far have not found a second hand one that has all the brackets!

All of your woes above show that the vehicle is new to you and you are doing jobs for the first time. Give it ten years and you will be doing jobs for the third or fourth time and thanking yourself for meticulously greasing every bolt before refitting, replacing things with stainless, and...

As above clean it off the vehicle with a stiff brush and lots of effort then refit immidiatly and allow to dry fully refitted. I have never used the Nikwax waterproofing solution but am in the process of making my own waterproofing using an old fashioned recipe off the forum here with beeswax...

At ‘91 it should be an lt77. The exact variant you will need the serial number. Easy way to tell is lt77 reverse is left of first, r380 reverse is right of 5th and Transit gearboxes have 6 gears which I know nothing about. In terms of your original question as above perfectly normal. Gove it a...

I have two twin core cables running up to my light bar each one feeding three of the led lights. I am using 10amp cable as I calculated the led draw to be about 2.5amps per light at 12v. There are lots of watts to amps converters online which is what I used. Enter the watts of the light, enter...

Nope as @Anaconda down the outside of the snorkel and then fed through the huge bonnet gap under the drain channel. You can see it here on mine appearing from Behind the snorkel. And you can also see the grommets talked about above next to the Speedo cable filled with wiring loom. I also have...

They are wider as well so you can fit wider tyres.

Nor had I until I got a stationagpn. But they are fitted to the donor which is a ‘88 so clearly not a new thing. That was my guess. Or keep the belt itself away from the top angle edge of the seat box to prevent it wearing? I might not bother with them and see what happens. If it starts to fray...

What purpose do these little plastic seatbelt clips serve on a station wagon? I do not have them on my hardtop but the seatbelt mounts in different position. I have the little plastic clips but would obviously need to drill holes in my hardtop seat box and cover to fit them (I have the same...

They are for fitting a dog guard. The plastic handled bolt allows the dog guard to easily be removed with no requirement for tools. Depending on the design of the dog guard you may have a similar style bracket with a rectangular slot in it mounted above the bulkhead on the roof. See fitting...

If you are worried about the “MOT” rather than the safety (as the safety is covered by the increased torque) you could always fit solid enclosed wheel nuts so the studs cannot be seen. Other than the fact you are on the other side the world, I have just removed a set you could have had as went...

I will try and remember to check the series when I am back in the country. In the mean time here are some pictures (blown up from other pics) of the td5 which looks like the the studs sit flush on the back and maybe one thread short on the front but they are the factory original studs and...

The price is about the same here which is why the military did not want to do that and why most people do not either. Myself included. I run them on my series and my td5 neither of which have the longer studs both of which have the increased torque setting.
