Evening All, I've finally started the reassembly process on my 1989 90 and am hoping to get the side panels back on shortly, using new seals. I beleive the correct part for my year is MXC2031, but I also see ALR5055 and AML710070/60 listed (presumably for later models). My question is, is it...

I think plenty of others have done similar. If you bulkhead is galvansied, I don't think you should worry. I would still inject some cavity wax inside it though as I'm not convined that a lot of the galvansied bulkheads on the market ever got the zinc flowing on their insides!

As others have said, it's a TD system with a link pipe at the front to connect a front pipe conversion (Steve Parkers or similar). I have an identical setup on my ex TD now 200 TDI.

How corroded are your door skins at the bottom? If these are very scabby, it may not worth doing without replacing the skins, as they need to be eased back to remove the corroded steel frame and let in new metal.

Looks to be a fair price based on what you describe and what can be seen in the pictures. However, all Landys have hidden surprises and you should expect a knowledgeable buyer to find a few of these and knock you down a bit!

Lifting the suspension will raise the centre of gravity and negatively impact the dynamics of the vehicle. Unless you are running a big wheel tyre combination and need more space for articulation, I would not recommend doing so. My opinion is that anyone who claims that their vehicle handles...

One possible option: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rover-19J-Turbo-Diesel-Cylinder-Head-with-valves-recently-re-manufactured/383698287502?hash=item5956333b8e:g:yekAAOSw3KxfS11Y £350 for a apparently refurbished head!

Ok, fair enough, but there is a company called Glencoyne engineering who will do it all for you. They have a good reputation, but I suspect it's £££. One thing I should say is if the cracks are in the combusion chambers (the circles with the unhappy smile!) they can be replaced quite easily. If...

Thanks all for your comments. Please all be aware that the so called "buyer protection" is not what it might first appear! As for Hermes, I spoke to one local courier who said he knew he had delivered to wrong houses in the past, but at least it was a delivery!!! Says it all........!

Welcome NJB! Turners Engineering- a well respected Landy engine and parts supplier- have the 19J head listed, but it's not cheap. Other options are obtain another engine from which you can rob the head, although that may have also suffered the same fate as yours. I am quite a fan of the 19J, but...

Thanks for your comments. Lynall, I have to disagree with you as the seller has not done their part. If there is an issue with a delivery of goods for which they are responsible, they should do all they can to help, as the contract for delivery of goods is their responsibility. In this case, the...

Where are you suggesting I send the letter? I don't have the sellers details and Hermes have just ignored me to date.

I agree with everything you say. The seller could have made more effort, but I guess it was convenient for him not to, with no apparent redress. If I was the seller, and I was confident the buyer was not at fault, I would have offered a refund, at my expense because my belief is that the...

I recently purchased a Landrover part from a private seller on ebay. I waited a couple of weeks and nothing arrived. I then checked with the seller and he stated that it had been sent by Hermes and passed on the tracking information. This reported that there had been "some delay" and to wait a...

That's a cracking project you have there. The sort of find I dream of. If it were mine, I would try to preserve its patina and do very little to the body, but make sure that the chassis, engine and running gear were top notch. Don't concern yourself over the mileage- 224k, 124k or 24k- does it...

Dunno about the orginal roof colour but I used Ford Diamond White. Can't see any difference with my eyes!

I am 6' 2" and I find the RX8 seats pretty comfortable, even with the tub bulkhead still fitted. One word of warning though if you do fit them- be careful with the wiring of the electrics- if you get this wrong, the side air bags could deploy. I completely removed mine and refitted the original...

Oh yeah, sorry, Welcome!!!
