I would check the clutch sleeve teeth for wear. my overdrive just failed as these were worn too far. there are some pics on page 2 of this http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f6/tdi-power-steering-conversion-pic-heavy-209598.html but basically if there is a change in the shape of the gear...

MGB SPEEDO 1280 | eBay thats 1280

oh and for you there is a 1200ish i think mgb one which wouldnt be too far out then.

ah cheers mate, there are a few 1000tpm speedos about, i think there was an mgb one like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mg-mgb-120-mph-smiths-speedo-sn-5234-00-1000-to-fit-80mm-hole-/271138055704?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f21166618 It will just depend if the speedo cable...

Hi does anyone happen to know what tpm speedo i would require to fit disco diffs to a series 3 88 with larger 750 16 tyres? I was reading this earlier Series Land Rover Speedometers | My Series III 109 Land Rover which would suggest that a 109 speedo would allow for the 750 16 tyres but i...

Yeah worth a look, just make sure you check chassis numbers etc. Its clearly a defender but the guy could be a bit simple and have written the year/model wrong. Pretty unlikely though looks pretty god dam stolen to me.

How violently is it coming out is if just sort of flopping out then renew the detent springs. There held in by 2 l shaped brackets and a brass nut on the top gearbox cover, nice easy job. If its being forced out then there will be a fault with the box, you can remove the selectors and...

Ah thanks Mr Noisy, should be ok to post with Parcel to Go then.

Im In Hertfordshire, so a little far away from you all. Ill have a look how much postage is.

Im looking for a discovery diff to put in the front of my series 3 so it needs to be 10 spline and a 4 bolt flange. Does anyone have one up for grabs. I dont mind if the front seal leaks etc as ill be swapping this before i fit it. Preferably in the Herts area. Thanks Aaron.

Hi mate are the diffs 10 spine? if so how much would you be after for one?

awesome mate, what a community

Hot start could be the condenser as above. i cant see it being fuel related if its starting from cold. Saying that it could always be a co incidence that it started before and something may have blocked the jet etc. I would check for spark first as its free and simple, but the condenser would...

Right so it was then time to fish the new gear out of the boot of the 200sx, had a nice little blast up to my mates farm in it last night and it sounds really happy now :) had been a little tappy for a while where i have barely used it so a long run has obviously filled the lifters up nicely...

On to the removal then, i had to bend back the locking tab and spin off the castled nut, this let the gear and retaining washer slide off leaving an intact shaft. IMAG1682 by darransandwich, on Flickr IMAG1689 by darransandwich, on Flickr so once it was out it gave me the chance to have a...

Right so this morning, i finished off unbolting the overdrive, then before i removed it took out the linkage pin. this little bugger tool a while as the split pin was a pain to get out :( IMAG1676 by darransandwich, on Flickr Once this was off i made myself a nice big pile of sheet and mats...

Had a productive day on the landy today but no pics. Ive been busy fixing my mates 90 for the past week or so, welding the bulkhead, new wheel bearing, welding the exhaust, re wiring the lights, fitting new propshaft bolts so i thought it was time to give mine some TLC. got up this morning and...

So the last few pics from the build are here. So the first thing i did was make up a new battery tray, This was made out of a little angle iron and some threaded bar; IMAG1649 by darransandwich, on Flickr then with the battery attached IMAG1652 by darransandwich, on Flickr So once this was...

Ha Ha i know that feeling mate, they are cheap and get you out of trouble though so not a bad thing if your uncertain of the cause. Glad its fixed mate.

Great work here people, does this mean your about sorted now or are you still waiting on Ashcrofts today?
