It's actually my recovery rope & tow strop bucket, had to improvise as it was already late when we got here lol What says you Mr @The Mad Hat Man ? Ashcrofts for a 1.4:1 rebuilt box? Or I do already have a good Disco 1.2:1 box that I could put new O rings, output seals and bearings in and...

Comes to something when your transfer box leaks so badly that you put a drip tray down on the mother in laws drive to Dave a puddle in the morning. Longest run out since being back on the road, 170 miles without missing a beat :) Nervous I was, but I got AA membership :D

Buy the Autoglym kit 100% I used it on my Peugeot 307 headlights and it was fantastic. Yes it's a bit spendy but I will guarantee the best thing out there for them when compared with others. https://www.autoglym.com/headlight-restoration-kit

Clutch release bearing, old fluid, fork on it's way out, warped friction plate or the dual mass flywheel could be fluffed. My money is on DMF goosed.

Hi.

Considering the choice of vehicles fitted with clutches, it could be anything or any number of things??? Care to help out with a vehicle model and year? Mystic mogg is on his hols.

Forum glitch. Looking forward to seeing the pics when the glitch in the matrix is fixed.

Smear of grease is all I do with paper gaskets.

That circular disc gasket seals the timing case to the block at the bolt and it stops it from letting oil in through the threads creeping in through cappilliary action.

Oh I am sorry to hear the bad news. Hope he has a full and rapid recovery.

You should be ok with that size tyre on it, standard size would be either 205/80 r16 or 235/70 r16 and your new size is an increase of around 9% (8.69% to be more exact). I run 235/85 r16 (very much equivalent diameter tyre to the 265/75) Coopers on my Discovery 1 with a 200Tdi and 70 is no...

Have you checked the registration to see if it is taxed and MOT'd?

I bought two 1500mm lengths of 3.6mm box from the metal store, only needs a slight trim on one end to get it to fit and then just cap the ends off. https://www.themetalstore.co.uk/products/3-6mm-thick-mild-steel-rectangular-box-section 120mm X 60mm X 3.6mm in 1.5m lengths

It escalates real fast. I kind of had a feeling it was going to be a bit of a slog but hadn't planned on it being quite such a marathon lol Best thing you can do is to go further than you need and then Dinitrol coat it inside and out every year.

I had one go on one of these She was burning a gallon a day of oil through the engine and with over 25,000 hours she was due a rebuild, after about a month in the yard being stripped down and rebuilt she was finally ready for the first trip out, I rocked up at the yard at 5 and after a...

I would recommend giving it a full service all round and do the cam belt too. Fuel sedimentor bowl under the boot floor is worth cleaning out as well as checking to see if your wastegate is stuck open on your turbo, if it is then it will never spool up as it is relies on exhaust pressure and...

Just finished my D1 200Tdi box section sills and rear end repairs. https://projectrusty1992.blogspot.com/2018/10/fitting-box-section-sills-repairing.html

These here winter tyres, what vehicle are they for?

Clunk will be Watts linkage most likely or rear radius arms possibly, if it were props then it would be vibrating also. Don't think air to coils conversion is a problem so long as the light is not illuminated. Be as well to replace the full sill panels if she's a keeper, foot wells are a ball...

Hello. Turbo is...
