Yes 0 et will make the track wider Ignore my original answer if you saw it I've edited to avoid confusion early morning answering lead to me muddling myself up lol.. see below for correct..

It's actually pretty easy on the p38 I'm putting the same engine in the new racer (disco) Use the x5 engine rangy p38 manual flywheel, clutch n bellhousing then the disco r380 upgraded to take the torque (well for what I'm doing) then you can buy the loom to run it on the x5 or the rangy ecu...

A friend of mine used to work for Nissan and apparently stuff like this is more common than you'd think, towards the launch of a new plate to "predict" demand manufacturers often pre apply to the dvla for new reg based on common specs.. I wonder if that's what's happened with yours LR pre regit...

Yes the front of the Scania cost myself and the farms insurance company (after abit of pleasing and negotiating with the truck companies insurer) the best part of 10k!!!! All for some idiot taking s wrong turn with 44 ton on board..

The bonnet front is different too so the pod won't fit either in afraid, you can swap the bonnet tho :) I believe there's a few people converted a d1 winch bumper with success but it ain't a straight swap afasik..

I'm not 100%on the disco auto box but most autos have a srperatevreverse piston setup if your struggling to get anything it could be that the piston valve is stuck open bypassing the pressure used to rotate the shafts for drive.. alternately a freelander for example has friction bands, I've had...

Hope you get sorted, I've used wailing a few times and never had a problem but then everyone can have a Friday afternoon moment.. I'd let the rac worry about getting them off the beach too if I were you.. I've stopped pulling people out now unless we're all off roaming together, we had a truck...

So having started out life as a 300tdi auto es spec the shell has had a hard life starting out as a managers car tramping the motorways, evidence remains of the original Motorola car kit however latterly it appears to have been lesser cared for finding a sheet of 2.5 mm steel plate teck screwed...

Near selby in a triangle between the A19, m62 and a64 @bellowhead Ponte-Carlo only a local will get that i did laugh lol

Whilst I love the site and finding myself here more and more, even starting a build thread- 'tis this that brings me about my question... With more and more people migrating to smartphone technology is there plans for a LZ app?? It would be nice to get notifications and updates straight to my...

Trailing arms aren't the problem im more concerned bashing through the dunes I'll rip the arm off the axle with only 1 mounting point

something like the below, to allow me to use front radius arms on the rear.

Any one out there done a radius arm conversion on the D1/ Defender to use the front radius arms??? im hoping to do it on my new toy for extra strength at speed off road but endless googling is throwing up no joy??? thinking of stripping another front axle and using the main tube of that but im...

If your used to the finer things you'll notice a big back step.. as a manual 4x4 goes tho it wasn't bad better than its predecessors.. I'd have another if necessary but I'd be hard pressed to prise myself from automatic daily drives now..

All the fixings should be there for the "jump seats" and lap belts, the d1 doesn't carry type approval from the eec as it was t a thing then similar to the defender hence why they had to change them on the d2 to front facing seats as side facets don't pass regs the human body can't take impact...

Had manual d3's at work for towing absolutely pathetic clutch and flyweel kept destroying themselves on a regular basis, gutless until we had them mapped. One died and was replaced with a auto and everyone fought over it.. the manuals were fun with no trailer.. autos drove seemlessly on that how...

Are you still looking for this?

I've been pratting about all my life with Motorsport having had various toys, I have been bitten well and truely by the Rally Raid bug but as in my nature I'm never content having something off the shelf so after countless hours researching Desert Warrior's, Tomcats, Wildcats and Tornado type...

Ah my miss interpretation.. I'm not opposed to having diagnostics been looking at is it Hawkeye the britpart thing, but newer stuff mechanic friends recon autologic is the only thing worth having.. I'm going to go and have a look to both options it's difficult tho as it's not like you can say...

Thanks, I'd pretty much ruled out the d1 on the basis of my experience in the past with them 9 or 10 years back I bought a 96 model which took some finding as good as it was as even back then they all seemed to disappear around the rear doors, boot floors and chassis.. lovely car but horrendous...
