    Rear cross member chequer plate

    Its your landy do what you want to, not what everyone else has. Make it personalised to you. If chequer plating is your thing, go for it.

    TD5 New Turbo - Starting Issues

    Might be an earthing problem as it sounds like the starter solenoid's clicking in and out. Also check your battery terminals are tight.

    Switch main beam on and doesn't work& cuts out dipped too

    Chack the contactors on the stalk by removing the dash. Can you hear the relay clicking when you stick main beam on?

Whitbread look a good fitter, i went...

    Searching won't help that much for him as insurance is changing so much. So previous threads will now be out of date. Cheers

    So if I havent got ABS I havent got Traction control? tdci puma

    LR 90, have you considered a limited slip diff instead of TC or a locker? Just read it in the LRO mag, as they have done a write up on several lockers and LSD's.

    Good point RichM, but if your thinking ahead when driving you wouldn't put yourself in that situation.

    Nice to hear you got a new defender LR 90. I would go for the diff lock as you can select when you want it on or not. TC is constantly on, you can't turn it off.

    Help drilling holes for recovery swivels

    Same as above, at work we cut through 10mm steel with a hole saws 46mm in diameter. Just plenty of coolant. A tip when you get 1-2mm in, put some of the swarf into the cutting groove as this seems to make them cut better.

    Gearbox and transfer box

    There is a 6th option, just put up with it. Its not doing any harm so save some money and time. But if you do want to change it. Get a second hand defender box, recon it yourself then change yours for the recon one. You can then sell your old box. I might be interested if you get rid of your old...

    defenders on the road

    If you are thinking of getting a 90, series or RRC don't decide now. Go out, have a look and test drive them. At the end of it all the 3 types of land rover will do what your wanting them for. So i would go out and try to get the best deal i could. I got a 1996 defender 90, i was looking for an...

    A handy way to refill a r380 gearbox.

    Maybe some of you guys know how to do it, but i can't find anything when i searched and it uses stuff that people will have lying around so it makes it cheap. So i thought it was worth sharing. Tell me if its not and i'll not bother posting any other things.
