    Left hand indicator odd problem

    I've cleaned them all up. Can't workout why it's only left hand indicator and only when headlights are on full. Side lights only and there's no issue

    Left hand indicator odd problem

    Freelander 2 (LR2) spring compressors..

    If you're only doing the odd spring or strut I wouldn't bother spending loads of money on a strut station. I've used ones like the Clarke ones with lock loads of times and never had an issue. Just make sure you tighten them up evenly and not 1 all the way, then on to another.

    Left hand indicator odd problem

    Yeah, I thought that. Wasn't sure if the lighting switch ran off the same circuit as the hazard/indicators somewhere along the wires? Was kind of keeping my fingers crossed someone on here has had the same issue.

    Left hand indicator odd problem

    Hi all, got a bit of an odd problem I could do with some advice on please. Had no hazards working and an indicator issues so changed the hazard switch. That sorted the hazards. However I still have an issue with the indicator stalk. Right indicator works fine in all ways, but the left hand...

    Defender 90 Antifreeze?

    Waterless coolant is the best if you have no leaks. No need to change regularly, no corrosion issues and higher boiling point. Defo worth the extra IMO

    90 v Series roll cage

    Hi all Just wanted to double check if anyone would know if an external roll cage (not sure if branded or home made. Just an ebay job), off a Series 2a truck cab would fit on a 90 truck cab? Obviously the 90 is longer, but is it dimensional much wider? Cheers for any advice

    Panel gaps...is there such a thing as perfection?

    Have a look on YouTube. Mike @ Britannicaa Restorations has a good video about setting door gaps. Can't remember 100% but I think it's like 34.5 " on the front doors. Although, to be honest have you ever seen a defender that is used that the door gaps look perfect on? More likely to find...

    Help with seals please oil v grease?

    Well bugger that then. I'm not buying more bits. It's going back to bearings running in oil. I suppose at least it will be no oils leak equals no water ingress. Oil leaks means something needs fixing

    Help with seals please oil v grease?

    I'm confused now! o_O Just putting it all together and can't work out hour the front outer seal actually seals enough to keep out oil. It doesn't fit around stub axle to a tight fit as the rear does and the washer that presses against it before the nut would surely just let oil wash past it...
