    Clutch slave pipe / nrc9595

    ok cool - I was just checking that it wasn't I had some weird bracket that was wrong - I can't see how they've got away with selling them in that shape in the past - or maybe noone buys new as they're so expensive (mine was cheaper - almost £20 including delivery etc - but i've seen them for 40...

    Clutch slave pipe / nrc9595

    Hello, As part of my rebuild I decided to replace the clutch slave cylinder. The metal pipe that goes between that and the flexible hose was stuck tight, so bought a replacement pipe too. The pipe is bearmach branded - I'd hoped this would mean a good quality part that fitted first time. The...

    these area joke right?

    I would assume so....my understanding is having something sharp like that sticking out of the vehicle is illegal.

    Defender wiper box problems.

    This is interesting. I'm rebuilding at the moment and fitted wipers yesterday.....new cable, new bearmach boxes. It took a bit of messing to get it to fit, and there seems to be a bit of resistance when manually operating the cable. I thought it was going to be a 5 min job, so I wonder if its...

    Bolt Identification help needed

    Message from under my landy: They look very similar to the bolts that hold the bump stops on. I only know this cos I went and bought new, my old ones were beyond recognition but I guess you could have been lucky.... (Or had new bump stops recently before rebuild....)

    Replacement radiator

    Only found on company local - quoted 250+vat for recoreing.... The ones off ebay only have to last 8 years each to make them more economical....

    Replacement radiator

    Cheers guys....i'll get in touch with a few local places and see what they say - the issue is that not only are most of the fins turning to dust, the pins that mount the radiator are knackered.

    Fuel gauge

    Fair enough - mine was all over the place too -got a new sender and putting a electric meter across it, the old one is jumping around all over everywhere and the new one is perfect - resistance goes up/down correctly as I move the float. Granted I haven't tested it on the guage yet - landy is...

    Another 90 Rebuild

    I think you're right. Hadn't made it out first time I looked on phone, but on mine at least the disc guards clip on to the brake pipe thing on top of swivel pin. That could be why they look a funny angle.

    Another 90 Rebuild

    They look slightly different shape to how on my 1992, but could be angle. Have you tried moving the wheels lock to lock to check they don't hit suspension or anything?

    Maybe you should name them after landy engines, and post them here ;)

    Welding with car batteries

    And risk draining/damaging battery so once you've welded whatever up, you can't start your landy ;)
