    Rear door locks intermittent, why?

    So it’s not just a case of moving it up a little bit then to allow for any wear and tear? The actuator works every time and the complete mechanism seems free but thinking about it sometimes it all sounds a bit steady and the pins almost judder to the top but there seems to be no pattern to this...

    PAS pump query

    Cheers Well both new pumps whine when the slightest bit of pressure is put on the wheel but this one works a lot better than the first one did, that one was dangerous and the car wasn't really used with it on but neither are anywhere near as good as original, I'm not even sure there is much...

    So what’s the final solution???

    Cheers I’ve got 4xforce rear arms on that are adjustable so back end seems fine To be honest in my eyes reworking the whole axle but leaving the diff pointing up isn’t the best thing, but I’m happy to be told otherwise if it comes with a decent ‘why’ I know what does what and how, just...

    Rear recovery point?

    Just for if this is of any use to anyone I fitted a YRM nato hitch mounting plate and one of the non genuine non swiveling nato style hitches (5 ton £50 ones) and this is the result. Door opens and misses top of hitch by a good inch, hitch can be opened and misses a 265/75r16 spare tyre on...
