I'm far being an expert but Shirley it should be on the positive side?

You have fwh that's way the pictures your looking at are different to what you've got Fwh = free wheeling hubs

Yorkshire outdoors it's called. Recommended

There's a place near thirsk who use defenders....can't think of name at mo. My son did the course, loved it

Your wing is hanging off.....

..if you want to keep it original looking buy a set of defender steel wheels, later one are tubeless. Its what I've done. second hand cheeper than a set of inner tubes

Hi anyone got a new series land rover swb fuel float? Can only seen to get them with the sender. Cheers

Hi the gearbox filler is on the side. Transfer filler is on the end by the transmission brake if that's what you mean. So gearbox shouldn't be filling from transfer box?

I'd guess at about 18 months since I drained and re filled. It's fine going up and down the gears, but is a bit noisy in top

...I'm guessing it's a gearbox rebuild then?! Its pretty knackered anyway, I've been looking out for a cheap series 3 box, looks like I'll have to try harder! Thanks for all your responses. What can I do in the meantime? Just drain and refill I presume?

Hi thanks for the quick replys Its always parked level,. Never been through any big puddles, it's about to have its first pay and play day later this week, hence it's getting checked over... How the hell can water get in? Its in the garage most of the time!

Hi all went to top up my gearbox just now, unscrewed the filler and loads of oil came out, now I have drained and re filled the box a couple of years ago, I can't have overfilled it this much( let alone it all still being there)... Can I?? I've done the transfer box too and that took a bit of re...

Glad you're sorted and thanks for getting back and telling everyone the cure.... It helps the rest of us!

They keep saying it's close to production but there's been no spy shots, usually all new cars get 'spotted' before release. I'm very sceptical that there will be anything in the next couple of years. Any why would they make a niche vehicle anymore when they can make millions from soft roaders.

Thanks but I'm not free this weekend, free next weekend and rest of week if anything happening

Some kind of gasket sealer? Has the engine been in bits before

Hi thanks but I'm not on Facebook, I have looked on someone elses though and seen that's there's a newbie section, which I most definitely fit into! Please yet me know if anything suitable pops up

As above anyone planning doing any green laning, who wouldn't mode me tagging on. Got last week of Oct off . I'm a complete novice though!

Cheers for the replies, couldn't work out why people are paying so much, I guess like everything the new ones won't last forever, but in my case it will be for setting the timing and adjusting the tappets... I'll get a new one and save 30 quid then!

Thinking of getting a starting handle for my series petrol, why are all the second hand ones on eBay seam to be 40 quid or so but I can buy a new one from paddocks for about a tenner? Are the new ones no good, from the picture I can't tell if there is something different?
