    Strata Florida track in my tratter

    Fair assumption, I am fairly competent off road and the front tyres are legal but not as chunky as they once were! Mechanically the vehicle is looked after by a local Landrover specialist I’ve never had a problem with it breaking down. We are staying very close to the strata Florida route so...

    Strata Florida track in my tratter

    Agreed value for insurance

    Hope someone can help here, my insurance has come to renew and I noticed the insured value is £4500 - I dont think I could replace the vehicle for that, well I could get a landy 90 but would be a naff one! so not sure what to do - they offer an agreed value cover, so was wondering what I should...

    What’s best for removing rust from chassis

    How many would I need to do the chassis? Would one be enough? QUOTE="lynall, post: 5006270, member: 62401"]I find flap discs tend to polish the rust, an angle grinder with one of them wicked wire bush attachments is bloody good, decent gloves and face covering essential. Bottom left and top...

    All wheel trim tonneau cover

    I ordered a tonneau cover for my 90 from all wheel trim which arrived the other day, spent a couple hours fitting it on and I have to say I am really pleased with the fit and finish. I had to fix on additional hooks etc as they were not on the body but everything I needed was supplied by them -...

    What’s best for removing rust from chassis

    It’s a 31 years old 90 - there is a bit of welding needed on the floor and front outrigger which I will get done first - but it’s pretty solid overall, has had a new rear chassis end bit at some point. I have been leaving it up till now but I want to spend some time making it look a bit nicer...

    can I use a rear door spare wheel carrier on my bonnet??

    Spent a couple of hours fitting the wheel carrier this evening, I think it looks right! The wheel sits neatly on the rubber bung things and it seems sturdy enough. I expected it to sit directly on the bonnet for some reason. Anyway I’m pretty pleased and thanks for the advice guys, as I was...
