Had a factory fitted Tracker on my motorcaravan but didn't like it / them at all so when the subscription ran out (had to pay up front) I replaced it with a Skytag (approved by both my motorcaravan & LR insurers).

Depends on your budget but certain things I would replace just because you currently have the perfect chance to do it plus it saves on refurbishment time. If you consider the old parts to still be serviceable then there will always be someone willing to buy them from you. Springs, shocks...

"Have you got a picture of the fixing for the rear hoop?" Unfortunately not but it is nothing special, the mounting plates are just bolted through the capping. The extensions that used to pass through the capping into the sockets on the centre-bulkhead, I just cut those off. "@Litch , that a...

You are in Bedfordshire so why not give Ashcroft a call? They sell a few different makes but I don't know if they offer an axle rebuild service or if they only take diffs.

How exactly did they bug you? I have a pair of MOD spec hoops on mine, early type at the rear (reversed and seatbelt mountings cut off) and later type (with diagonal) at the front.

I fitted a 300TDi spec Britpart switch / lock to my 90 back in 2014 (to replace the non-locking N/A type fitted as standard) and it has been fine.

I fitted a new sender (and tank) to my 90 last year and it doesn't read the same, close but not the same. Personally I have never relied completely on fuel-gauges whether it be my LR / car / motorcaravan / bike. Use them as a guide yes but I always reset my trip a fill-up and then I know exactly...

Just checked against the early 90/110 owners manual and Military 90/110 User Handbook, both those show it as spare as well.

Agreed. The 300TDi owners manual and my own cluster have no image against that position. Can't make out the image, if someone has gone to the trouble of putting a symbol onto the light then I would have thought it related to whatever it is. Can you get a clearer image?

Like many things, in time the myth takes over from fact. Yes there were problems but imagine you were a new owner with that extra power on tap, it was a novelty and I am sure they weren't always cared for in the way they deserved (or needed). Then comes along a properly developed engine (the TDi...

Is new out of the question? More expensive perhaps (depending on the rarity & value of S/H ones) but at least you would get one.

I know yours is a 110 whereas mine is a 90 and I am assuming you have tyres similar in diameter to my 265/75x16's but I suspect that you may find it a tad too low geared with the 1.6 unless you do lots of heavy towing etc. The final drive ration on the autobox is higher than the R380 so in my...

When it comes to TRE's I am of the opinion that if you are changing one then you may as well change all three. This may sound wasteful but my reasoning is:- Even good quality ones are not expensive. If one is worn then the other two could be very close to being in the same condition (if all...

Sounds very much like a cooling issue rather than a specific heater one, if the engine isn't getting up to temp then the heater won't have the heat to chuck out. Does the engine get to temp after a good run (sat idling on the driveway is no good as it is unlikely ever to get up to operating...

While I agree that it would be a good idea to carry out a test-drive of a similar vehicle first, I disagree that they have to be way slower. I know a fully loaded 110 is always going to be more sluggish than a lightly loaded 90 (like mine) but if it is your own vehicle that is being converted at...

"Just because the light makes a “ground” doesn’t mean the path back to the battery negative is correct and uninterrupted. Personally, when I rebuilt mine, I done away with ALL body “grounds” and made them all connect directly to the battery negative. It saves all this hassle." As Mick and...

265/75x16 was standard fit for several years so the tyres aren't oversized. The normal procedure for tyres rubbing on radius arms it to adjust the lock-stops, as long as they aren't seized then it is a simple operation that should only take a few minutes. Certainly a lot easier than fitting...

I remember when I bought my 300TDi auto conversion kit from Ashcroft's, as I looked at the collection of parts David told me that it would all become clear as I started putting it together! It was an "interesting" time but at least I knew I had all the parts I needed and that they would fit the...

Dipstick, oil-cooler & hoses, Hi/ Lo mounting bracket. Can't see any of them in the photo. What about the inhibitor / reverse switch? They are expensive if missing.

When it comes to suspension if you ask 100 different people you will get 100 different replies as what suits one user does not suit another. It all depends on the type of vehicle (my 90 soft-top for instance has a lot less weight over the rear axle than a 90 station wagon fitted with glass &...
