Wow, so is that what happens when the hotspots come out??

Purchase or borrow of a higher ratio diff to test in my S3 before looking further at an High Ratio transfer box conversation. Located in Sussex but prepared to travel for the right thing. Edit: should add, needs to be 10 spline. Cheers

Yeah, mine came off much easier than this for the first time in its whole life. Are you taking the sides with it?

I've seen you can get uprated versions of them. God luck getting the fixing out the old one though :D

Another daft question, without a DTI how do you know when No.1 is fully open? FYI, 6 and 2 is 8 :D:D

Hi @dag019 Sorry for the slow response, the Mrs's car failed the MOT and I've been having to get it back together after hours. Just looked for the numerous photos I took for this very reason and cant find them anywhere :( I have added a photo of the relevant bracket page of the manual for you...

My brake pedal locked solid in the up position after sitting for years so it is possible. I was also going to say what @Blackburn has, try swinging on some if the levers :D

I've just done the same after my rebuild/rechassis, would you mind saying how much it adds up to, out of interest? I've done £6k on a re-chassis, axles rebuilt, new footwells, new wheels & tyres, new clutch system, new brakes, new rear floor & supports, rebuilt props. Engine serviced but...

Yes happy to. I've got some photos of the bracket welded to my old chassis, I'll upload those to this thread too (this eve).

Sold.

750 feels a bit much for the amount of work and cost of a re-chassis imo.

Hand throttle, rope and starter handle photos now added.

This is a defender body onto a rangie chassis, but it's all the same thing. Can find episode 1 though I'm afraid

There's no slop in my big end, thank you very much :D:oops: I'll give it a go today and let you know how I get on.

Brill thanks, I'm trying my best to not have to take the rocker cover off!

Can always rely on JM for a solid answer, thank you. How does one know if there is pressure in a particular pot?

Hi folks. I've need to find TDC on #1 to fit an electronic distributor tomorrow. The destructions say something about setting the engine as above. What's the easiest method? It's not like I'm setting the tappets so is getting the rotor are pointing at lead 1 sufficient? Any guidance/advice...

2.25 petrol, 5mb.

Used in theatres back stage as counter weight, tie ropes to etc. If you have a theatre near you you could ask?

Stage weights are similar in design, might open up a few more local options?
