Hi clutch pedal box assembly's both with spring assist , the later one has the pedal travel bolt adjuster at the bottom of the box , the earlier type like my 96 300tdi has the pedal height adjuster bolt half way up the box as most earlier type boxes . Is one better than the other as in...

Not sure i want or need it that light . I like the idea of the LOF spring though . At my trunnion on the m/cyl rod there's a lot of slope , and its difficult to adjust and get the free play right , both at the pedal and the cylinder free float . So ive opted for a new pedal box assembly . But...

May as well get the LOF spring with the money ive saved not buying the so called upgrade that i already have .

thanks , so theres no third magical pedal box . Been looking at the LOF spring , may get one if you say they are worth it . £30 cheapest i can find .

I did look at them , sadly im to late now as got the standard trw . Are there only 2 types of clutch pedal boxes , over centre or the normal long springs . A replacement clutch pedal box for my 1996 300tdi with over centre spring assist is £40 cheaper than the td5 with o/centre spring assist...

Does anyone know of or tried a td5 clutch pedal box upgrade on a 300tdi , selling on ebay genuine td5 pedal boxes as an upgrade mod to older defenders , with assistance spring . ??? sure my 1996 300tdi has the curly snail spring already , are they different

I have 3 dewalts , the big 899 which i seldom use and a medium one which i do use a lot , Also a baby one which doubles up as a driver , i put a driver adaptor on for screws and is used the most of them all . How did i live without them , they make life so much easier so its really working out...

hi its all working ok in that respect hi low etc , Its more the slack in the drive take up , there seems more in hi diff than low

hi i have a defender 300tdi r380 lt230 t/box , in low range everything feels nice and firm no slack , but in high range it feels a bit of slack , certainly not as tight as in low . Is this normal or should i be looking for another transfer box . Cant see it been anything else .

defender 300tdi 100amp alternator , just fitted a VDO 0-4000 rpm gauge , every search says 1 + 3 off and 2 on or up/down . Mine the dips are all off giving me approx 780rpm tick-over and no load rev blip over 3000 rpm . Now it seems fine , But why are my dips all 3 off , is this correct . Or if...

Ditto ,,, lol

Every job on mine so far ive had the same , I think i will just do that ive got 5 mins 4 hours later . Why do people F things up and leave them . And copper grease well you would think it was there babies blood you were asking them to use , so everything is seized solid .

That's a point Tax man would keep him busy for a bit . Hes advertised on Facebook i see . Evidently the chap he was with latterly his partner , But anyway working away together in a small unit , and one day he just said i'm not doing this anymore walked out and went off plastering , but hes not...

Thanks everyone , i feel a little better about it all . I have pictures before and after , text messages as to what i wanted , etc . I can live with it , but i will have to sand and buff the runs out . You cant see them if you stand back a bit LOL , He did fix some of the issues i pointed out ...

A bloke who paints bits in a shed and now its his new job (evidently he used be a co-owner in a body shop) I know his wife a bit walking the dogs and as hes just had the sack again i thought it would help us both . Well in short he/we agreed to etch prime and then paint the roof + rear door...

Nice to know the Ctek 7 is ok , as most have the 5 . I need to run a lead to poke out somewhere instead of opening up the battery box each time .

Just got a glimpse of the cable lead , thought it was an alien on my iPad thingy lol . Ideally that's what I would love to do . Unfortunately I'm in a row of 3 bungalows at right angle to the road . So I'm at the far end and to do that I would need to mount it onto the neighbours bungalow , not...

Oooh pricey , maybe just get the manual one .

Like that !! That's next on the list ., Wasnt sure what they meant in the blurb exactly , so it's got its own power source , handy . I went for the 7 over the 5 purely for the extra 2amp and as its with halfords trade card its £20 off .

Hi thinking of getting a smart charger either a Optimate ampmatic 6 or a Ctek 7 ........ which I have ordered using my trade card at halfords so will cost £20 off ... Any help please , I don't collect the Ctek until 4pm, so I can still get a Optimate
