The tub cover looks the biz, is it a home made bit of kit, or could you say where you got it - I am in West Devon - how much would you want for it?

Gratch - Yes pedantic indeed - Jason2 and Hughesy - thanks gents.

Hi Gratch Yep search tool is great 90's vintage Disco, older series, P38 and 90's vintage range rover, No defender of the1986 vintage. I know P38's are metric 10mm x 1.0 pitch but are the 1980's defenders 3/16 unf or did they changee to Metric?

Hello Gents, Just about to repipe the boys' 1986 90, anyone know what size & thread the fittings are - want to buy them begfore we start Cheers

Thanks oil dripper, I did not expect it to be that easy

Hi Gents, thinking of fitting a 300TDI engine into a 2.5 N/A 90. I know the 200TDI bolts on with a bit of jggery around the Bell housing but - what is needed to fit a 300 instead. Cheers

Hi kungfu0210, I had the same trouble with a usb emulator on my lap top. I cured it by getting a serial port pmcia card foe less than a tenner including postage from the states. Works brilliantly no fuss. just type it into googlr or look on RSW web site Storry Wilson was going to post the...

Hi gents, When I change air springs, I always start with new clips, give the old ones one tug, and if they dont go I use a cold chisel to snap them off at the base, easy.

Hi Gents, I Have a 1986 90 front axle to which I want to fit a Range Rover classic diff and outer stubby half shafts, but keep the defender hubs and brakes etc.. How compatible with the defender hubs are the classics CV joints and half shaft bits & Pieces. Can I fit the RR Diff...

Hi Gents, If your laptop doesn't have a serial port the most reliable solution is to buy a serial port pcmia card for less than a tenner inc vat & P+P from ebest.com some usb serial converters will only initialise with a piece of recognised kit on the end ie an ipod - unfortunately windows...

45 mins of freeing up the pins!! Sod that Chop them off and replace with new ones 45 seconds with a decent chisel & Hammer.

Sorry - I forgot to say it actually takes me longer to get the tools, jacks and stands out, jack the car up, ensure that it is safe, and put the whole lot back down and away in the garage again than it does to actually change the spring

Dead easy, jack it up, support by the chassis with axle stands, support axle with a good trolley jack - remove the wheel, plastic wing liner, and dig out all the mud and crap from the top and bottom of each airbag to be changed find the R clips give them a pull if they are rusted in (most are)...

Gents - further info from my previous post - Any laptop with a card slot can be fitted with a serial port for £9.70 all in. Just log on to Online Shopping for Consumer Electronics, Computers&Networking, Accessories, Toys, Lights and more and type B271 into the search box - it works no more...

Hi Gents, I Had loads of trouble trying to get the usb to serial lead to work - the driver would't insall without a readable device on the end and the P38 wasn't a readable device. I cured it by spending £9.70 including VAT and Airmail for a pcmia card serial port that just plugs into the laptop...

Hi, I would test the in tank pump next - It usually causes starting problems with less than 1/4 tank if knackered - but it could do with being tested anyway - use the search to find the thread for testing the pump without dropping the tank.

Hi gents, I have struggles to get the software to work through a usb to serial emulator for weeks with no success. I have now bought a PCMIA to serial port card from Hong Kong for £9.70 inc vat and airmail - its a brilliant bit of kit and the software works fine. My advice is don't bother...

Hi Gents, The brackets are held on by rivnuts in the crossmember - they are a bit like a poprivet except the centre is an M6 threaded nut. Very cheap to buy - you don't need to buy the fitting tool just use an M6 bolt and nut to wind in the rivet once in the cross member - then unscrew the...

Hi Gents, Looking for a project in the shape of a TDi - MOT failed with totally rotted out chassis & bulkhead etc.. already have those waiting almost anything considered for the right price - If this isn't the right place to post this - Sorry Cheers
