    P38 low range box

    when pressing the hi - lo button and nothing is displayed on the dash panel then you have a electrical glitch ! Manual box has to be in neutral and vehicle stationary for motor to engage lo box - and if you are not, the dash tells you to do so.

    I need this idea out of my head

    owned one back in '76, was fun but bloody thirsty even back then, draughty, noisy, damn awkward to change gear at times, heavy steering and not the best to reverse with. One is used down here on the lanes and it is just a bit large at times.

    what size wheels?

    have a look at the wheels fitted to Ifor Williams trailers as they are 5 stud and might be the same pcd - come in 12" or 13". Limiting factor besides clearing the drums is going to be spring shackles or diffs

    camera advice needed

    one tip for you to do with the nikon, take a correctly exposed shot - print it, then adjust the monitor brightness to be the same as the taken shot = very easy to take manual exposure shots then, also be aware that the light levels are set for California so always use the "cloudy" setting in UK...

    camera advice needed

    go for it pikey, they do work well, try and use it on manual exposure - but on all auto they are good. nikon have the advantage of every lens ever made will fit as the bayonet fitting is still the same ( loss of auto focus and auto exposure with early lens's - but there is a focus indicator)...

    When I first got mine it was very sluggish, so looked around and found it had a large J Fearn intercooler fitted but no power box or chip. so fitted a std intercooler onto it - slight improvement - then replaced twin box rear system with a single primarily for better ground clearance, but...

    P38 diesel power chip leave on or take off

    Camel disco

    all Camel Discos from '96 where powered by 300tdi diesel's, it could have been a selection vehicle which are worth money but not that much. Easy checks to make are 1/ fuel tank guard. 2/ rear wing cut aways. 3/ mounting holes on dash for vhf radio. 4/ roof rack bolted through roof onto roll...

    How un(reliable) would a 2.5 DSE P38a be?

    Only one ECU less and one that is not known for trouble. The diesel is better suited to the auto box as there is no power low down the rev range which equals a lot of clutch slipping pulling away on a slope when loaded. not having to slip my clutch more that I did on my 110, only advantage...

    How un(reliable) would a 2.5 DSE P38a be?

    Having now owned my P38dt for 3 months all I can say is get one!! Be prepared to put some time in to make sure EAS works properly (software and lead = sorted). By the nature of the beast they will not have been abused off road as the equivelant Disco or classic may have been, so no nasty...
