Discovery 2 4.0 V8 throttle body leaking at the spindle. Is there a o ring or bush that can be changed? This is a 2003 facelift thor. I had the smoke machine on it, please see the video...

So as you know my ace block sprung a leak on the rear pipes. I've set to work! Good condition secondhand block acquired. I removed all the bits ready for the work. Popped to Pirtek and picked up 6 3/8 BSP parallel male to parallel male fittings and 6 dowty washers. When to see my mate...

So when fitting the NSF door frame I noticed my temporary regulator fix had snapped. Luckily I've been working on a permanent fix. I ordered a nylon disc which I countersunk on one side to clear the stainless cut down countersunk bolt. I then found the perfect aluminium spacer in the shed which...

So got another frame finished. Here's a few before and after photos. Also got a good second hand ace block to machine and replace all the pipes with hoses etc. The coolant system refresh was well worth it as its dropped my temps by 15-20c! :cool:

So got the cooling system refreshed on Wednesday. Good job really as the rad was showing signs of leaking. I've replaced all the coolant hoses including the lpg and replaced my gates thermostat with a genuine land rover one. So first off I used a can and a half of this... Liqui Moly Radiator...

Last Saturday I fitted a new genuine Land Rover viscous fan clutch as giving the cooling system a refresh. Also my new radiator arrived. Picked up an LPG filler bracket and a trailer plug bracket in stainless ready for when I complete the tow bar project. Also got new LPG tanks...

Does anybody know how to tune an lpg setup? AEB software on my v8. Thanks.

Made the recovery point, now ready for powder coat. Chamfered out the rear, filled it in then flushed it off. Done.

Hi mate, what type of tank is it? do you have any measurements and photos? Thanks.

As above guys I'm after a facelift ace block part number RVH000023. Looking to get it machined to do the pipe conversion. Thanks. Toby.

Finished off my automatic gearbox oil and strainer change. Got a friend to plasma cut this out for me from 12mm plate. This is part of my new rear recovery point i'm making. The whole tow bar and brackets have been removed ready for mods and powder coat. I've also drilled and tapped the...

So managed to get the NSF window frame installed today (between the rain!!) When it was apart I found another problem, the plastic wheel on the window regulator. I couldn't put it back together knowing that 1 of the wheels has broken in 2 and its only a matter of time before it fails...

Also sound deadened the roof.

So took it for a decent run today and had a look underneath when I got home. Seams the transfer box is leaking from what looks like the intermediate shaft to me. Bugger, probably worn oval and needs bushing.

Cheers matey.

Right another update guys. Done a few jobs today! First off was to replace the snapped handbrake cable. Sorry only remembered to photo once it was back together. But now its perfect, 3 clicks. Next up the transfer box was slighly damp from oil but not dripping so could be a build up from...

Got the rear door frame in this morning. Very happy. 1 down 3 to go!!

Well my rear door frame is back from the powder coaters and looking great. I cleaned up all the rubbers so its ready to install at the weekend, weather permitting. Also managed to source a very good condition NSF window frame ready for the same treatment. Just need to find the other 2 in...

I've managed to source a really good condition OSR door frame with the very slightest bit of rust in one spot. This is now with the powder coaters getting dipped to remove all old paint then zinc under coat with satin black topcoat. That should last many years. As I found out when doing a...

I've only had it since October but I love it so much already, I'll keep it for many many years! Cheers mate.
